Is This Right for You?

Who This Is For

Good fit if…

  • You're comfortable handling day-to-day management
  • You want professional screening without the ongoing cost
  • You already have systems for rent collection and maintenance
  • You're an experienced landlord adding a new door

Consider Full Management if…

  • You want rent collected and deposited automatically
  • You don't want to handle maintenance calls
  • You own multiple properties or live out of the area
  • You want full AB 1482 compliance and legal protection — see Full Management

Many landlords start with tenant placement and move to full management when their situation changes — that transition is seamless.
