Should you manage it yourself?
A real cost comparison — not fee versus rent, but total cost including your own hours, vacancy days, turnover and the late-payment cycles a slower process creates.
What you work out
- Your true hourly cost of self-managing, from your actual last three months
- Vacancy days priced in — the line most comparisons leave out entirely
- Turnover and re-tenanting costs per unit
- What a management fee actually buys back in time and risk
- The break-even point for your portfolio size
The number that surprises people is rarely the fee. It is the cost of an extra eleven vacant days because listing, screening and turnover all queue behind a full-time job.
