We want pricing to feel modern, understandable, and fair. Owners can choose full hands-off management, lease-to-signing support, or targeted ala carte help depending on what is already handled and what still needs expert support.
Best overall value for owners who want prep coordination, leasing, communication flow, and ongoing management operations handled under one roof.
$2,000 or 50% of first month payment, whichever is greater.
Use PM Properties for selected steps only, including consulting, listing support, lease signing, or owner-found-tenant support.

Many owners find out too late that the market is full of loosely explained lease-up fees, ongoing percentage-based charges, add-on coordination costs, and very little meaningful help with property preparation. PM Properties is designed to be clearer about what is included, what is incremental, and where the operational value really comes from.
| What owners often run into | Typical market pattern | PM Properties approach |
|---|---|---|
| Lease-up pricing | Often trends toward a full first month of rent, a vague placement fee, or a blended structure that is harder to compare. | Lease-to-Signing starts at $2,000 or 50% of first month payment, whichever is greater, with the base package shown clearly. |
| Recurring management fees | Many managers stack a lease-up charge with ongoing monthly percentages, renewal charges, admin fees, or inspection-style extras. | We separate the service modes so owners can clearly choose full hands-off, lease-to-signing only, or ala carte support. |
| Pricing transparency | Important charges can be buried until later, especially around showings, coordination, screenings, renewals, or signing support. | Background checks, tenant signing, showing limits, inventory timing, and prep coordination are called out directly on the page. |
| Property preparation support | Owners are often left to manage paint, flooring, carpet, plumbing, electrical, and turnover work on their own or with limited manager involvement. | Property prep is part of the offer, not an afterthought. We can coordinate rental-ready work before leasing begins. |
| Vendor pricing model | Owners often face wide quote variation, inconsistent scopes, and opaque contractor markup structures when everything is sourced ad hoc. | We work through direct pre-negotiated vendor relationships and charge a flat 10% admin fee on work coordinated through us. |
| Service flexibility | Some firms push owners toward a single full-management model even when only lease-up or selected help is needed. | We support full hands-off, lease-to-signing only, and true ala carte help if you already found the tenant or only need part of the process. |
| Insurance support | Coverage questions are often left to the owner to sort independently, separate from the leasing and move-in timeline. | We can help coordinate owner and rental-property insurance conversations through vendor partners so the coverage side stays connected to the operating plan. |
Property preparation is where owners often lose days comparing bids, chasing vendors, and sorting wide price variation. We want this section to make it clear that PM Properties is built to offer one of the stronger value positions in the market, not just another management layer on top of the same contractor chaos.
Many owners end up paying for the time it takes to chase multiple quotes, compare uneven scopes, and sort out who is actually accountable when prep work slips. Our model is to coordinate the work directly, keep the admin fee flat, and make the budget easier to understand before leasing begins.
Use the ala carte path and let us handle the lease, signing, move-in coordination, or other steps you do not want to manage alone.
