Is Your Property Manager Charging Your Tenant an Extra 3%–5% Every Month—On Top of Rent?
Some property management companies charge the tenant a separate monthly administrative fee equal to 3%–5% of the rent. It is not additional rent for the owner. It is an added charge paid by the tenant to benefit the property management company.
Other PM Company Adds 3%–5%
Added tenant fee: $75–$125 every month
Tenant's new monthly housing cost: $2,575–$2,625
The owner still receives only the agreed $2,500 rent. The additional $75–$125 generally goes to the other property management company.
No fee automatically causes a vacancy, and market results vary. Increasing the tenant's total monthly cost can make an owner's rental less competitive without increasing the rent the owner receives.
Charged Only When the Service Applies
These are not automatic monthly charges. They arise only when the related event, request, or optional service occurs.
When tenancy documents are renewed, extended, held over, or rewritten.
For the annual occupied-property review or another owner-requested inspection.
Optional upgraded photography; standard listing photographs are already included.
Less Nickel-and-Diming
The clearest comparison is often found in the fees a company chooses not to add.
Percentage Placement Fee
No additional charge equal to 50%–100% of one month's rent. Initial placement is included with the applicable $599 onboarding service.
Separate Marketing Fee
Professional listing preparation, standard photography, MLS entry, and participating rental-site exposure are included when applicable.
Routine Maintenance Fee
Ordinary maintenance coordination is included with ongoing management, without a routine per-work-order coordination charge.
Routine Vendor Markup
000 Property does not increase ordinary third-party repair invoices through a routine vendor markup.
Tax-Preparation Fee
No separate management-company fee simply for preparing ordinary year-end owner tax documentation.
Cancellation Penalty
No separate early-termination charge. The management agreement requires 60 days' written notice for an orderly transition.
What the Pricing Can Look Like at $2,500 Monthly Rent
Both examples assume twelve occupied months and use only the charges shown below. Repairs, legal expenses, renewals, optional services, and other property costs are not included.
Other property management companies set their own prices, and actual fees vary. This illustration uses the assumptions displayed above and is not a quote for another company or a guarantee of savings. Always compare complete written proposals and management agreements.
Owners Still Pay the Actual Costs of Owning the Property
Transparent management pricing does not mean repairs, legal work, utilities, or other third-party property expenses disappear.
Maintenance & Repairs
Vendor labor, materials, parts, diagnostics, replacements, permits, and specialist services remain owner expenses.
Legal & Eviction Costs
Attorney fees, court costs, service expenses, writs, constables, and other legal charges remain the owner's responsibility.
HOA & Government Charges
Association assessments or violations, licenses, registrations, taxes, fines, and government fees are not management fees.
Insurance & Utilities
Owner insurance, deductibles, uncovered losses, vacancy utilities, and owner-responsible service accounts remain property costs.
Property Preparation
Cleaning, landscaping, pool work, repairs, improvements, rekeying, and other rent-ready expenses are paid by the owner.
Property Reserve
The standard $500 reserve is owner money held in the property account for authorized expenses—not a fee paid to 000 Property.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers about pricing, onboarding, owner payments, maintenance, inspections, and getting started.
What is included in the $130 monthly management fee?
The flat $130 monthly property management fee covers the ongoing, day-to-day management of your occupied rental property. This includes rent collection, tenant communication, routine maintenance coordination, lease enforcement, owner statements, financial reporting, and access to your owner portal.
The management fee is charged only while the property is occupied. Initial placement, lease renewals, property inspections, and other separately priced services are disclosed upfront.
Do you charge an onboarding fee?
Yes. A one-time $599 onboarding and initial-placement fee applies when management begins.
For a vacant property, it covers property and account setup, initial marketing, standard photography, screening, leasing, and move-in coordination. For an occupied property, it covers the management transition, document and lease review, account setup, deposit and ledger verification, portal setup, and tenant onboarding.
Can you take over an occupied property or one currently managed by another company?
Yes. We can assume management of an occupied rental property, including one currently managed by another property management company. After the owner properly ends the existing agreement and authorizes the transition, we coordinate with the outgoing manager to collect the available property and tenancy records.
We review the lease, addenda, tenant information, payment ledger, security-deposit records, inspection reports, maintenance history, notices, keys, HOA documents, and other relevant records. Learn more about switching property management companies.
How are owner payments sent?
Owner payments are sent monthly by ACH direct deposit, typically on or around the 15th, provided rent has been received and cleared. After the payment is initiated, it may take several business days to appear depending on the receiving bank, weekends, and banking holidays.
Applicable management fees, maintenance expenses, owner reserves, and other authorized charges are deducted before the owner payment is issued. Monthly financial information is also available through the secure owner portal.
Do I approve maintenance repairs?
We keep owners involved in maintenance decisions. Each management agreement establishes an authorization limit that allows routine repairs to be addressed promptly. For expenses above that limit, we generally contact the owner before authorizing the work.
Emergency, safety, habitability, or property-protection issues may require immediate action. All maintenance requests are reviewed and screened before a vendor is dispatched whenever circumstances allow. Learn more about our maintenance and repair coordination.
How are security deposits handled?
Security deposits collected through our management are held and administered through the brokerage's designated property-management deposit system, separately from business operating funds and in accordance with applicable Arizona requirements.
At the end of the tenancy, lawful deductions and refunds are processed in accordance with the lease and Arizona law, including the required itemized disposition and applicable deadline. Owners can review additional guidance in our Arizona landlord-tenant law resource.
Is there a cancellation fee?
No. We do not charge a separate cancellation or early-termination penalty. Owners may terminate management services by providing 60 days' written notice in accordance with the signed Property Management Agreement.
The notice period allows time to coordinate tenant communication, transfer property records and funds, address outstanding invoices, and complete an orderly transition.
Do you work with out-of-state owners?
Yes. We work with property owners located throughout the United States and overseas who need reliable local oversight for Arizona rental properties. Owners receive convenient portal access, monthly financial statements, ACH payments, maintenance updates, inspection reports, and direct communication wherever they live.
You can learn more about our owner-focused approach and meet Jerome Caywood.
How often are property inspections completed?
We complete a rent-ready or move-in inspection before a new tenancy and a move-out inspection after the tenant returns possession. During the tenancy, we recommend at least one occupied-property inspection each year to help confirm the home is being reasonably maintained and identify visible maintenance concerns.
Annual inspections are scheduled with proper notice and include a documented report with photographs. Additional inspections may be requested when needed. Learn more about our property inspection services.
Are there optional or separately priced services?
Yes. The $130 monthly fee covers routine, ongoing property management, including normal maintenance coordination. Separately priced services may include onboarding and initial placement, subsequent tenant placement when applicable, lease renewals or rewrites, occupied-property inspections, premium photography, project coordination, and extraordinary services outside normal management duties.
Attorney fees, court costs, service fees, repair expenses, and other third-party costs remain the owner's responsibility when applicable. The signed Property Management Agreement and applicable addenda control all services and charges.

Getting started begins with a brief consultation so we can learn about your rental property, current tenancy, concerns, and management goals.
