Question 1

How much does property management cost?

Accepted Answer

Full-service property management costs 6-10% of gross monthly rental income. Sagareus offers instant pricing estimates at sagareus.com/proposal-request. Every proposal includes a full rental analysis with both full-service and tenant placement pricing, valid for 6 months.

Question 2

What is the difference between full-service management and tenant placement?

Accepted Answer

Full-service management is ongoing: leasing, rent collection, maintenance, inspections, accounting, and compliance. Tenant placement is a one-time $2,000 service to find and place a qualified tenant, after which you self-manage.

Question 3

Are there fees during vacancy?

Accepted Answer

No. The monthly management fee is based on rent collected. If the property is vacant, you pay nothing.

Question 4

Are there markups on maintenance?

Accepted Answer

No. You pay the actual vendor invoice. Sagareus does not mark up maintenance costs, take kickbacks from vendors, or add administrative fees to invoices.

Question 5

Why are fees percentage-based?

Accepted Answer

Percentage-based fees adjust naturally with inflation and market rent increases. This prevents the need to raise prices or renegotiate fees. The percentage stays the same for the life of the agreement.
