Property management takes many different skills and can take a lot of time depending on the number of real estate investment properties. To estimate how much time it would take you to manage a single property, set aside four hours a month for daily management and operations. That’s roughly 48 hours yearly. Most of that time is spent on finding a prospective tenant, leasing, and rental property turnover.
That may be 48 hours on top of all your other responsibilities and 48 hours in addition to all the additional hours you potentially spend worrying about your real estate investment. It may take you longer to do what an experienced property manager does, and you might not do it as well. You also don’t get to make use of economies of scale like Mynd does, which is when the size of your project gives you leverage when you negotiate the cost of materials and labor. With that saved money, you can scale your real estate investment portfolio.3e
100%! If part of your motivation for getting into real estate investing had a passive income source, then a property management service is the only way to do that. A landlord won’t have to worry about any aspect of real estate investment, from the easiest to the hardest. Mynd will even document all property management team activity to see if you can save upwards of 20% of qualified business income using the qualified business income deduction.
In general, a property investor should save1.5 times their monthly cash flow for yearly repairs and maintenance. One way to make maintaining your budget easier is to save 10% of your monthly income.
How much you spend on maintenance will be influenced by the age and condition of your residential rental properties. You should also set funds aside for capital expenses (CapEx), big-ticket like HVACs.
An investor can use two quick methods to estimate their operating budget: the 1% rule or the 50% rule. Set aside 1% of your home’s value at the time of purchase to use the 1% rule, or set aside 50% of your monthly collected rent to use the 50% rule.
To see how challenging managing a rental property is, see how many answers you have to the questions you should ask a property manager to assess their qualifications.
- How would we prevent early lease terminations?
- What are some renovations that attract millennial tenants?
- What’s 100% bonus depreciation, and how can we take advantage of it?
- What are some tips for easy rental property turnover?
- How do you reduce landlord liability?
- How can you speed up rental property turnover?
When a security deposit is collected, that money is placed in a trust account. It's a good idea to keep tenant’s security deposits in a different account from where your rent payment is held. Collected rent is placed into a designated bank account, used to pay all expenses that the money is permitted to be spent on, and then the balance is delivered monthly to you on the pre-agreed date. On or around the 10th is a common choice.
