Why Managing Your Own Rental Is Costing You More Than You Think”

1. The Hidden Costs of DIY Landlording
Managing a rental seems simple — until you realize how quickly little tasks pile up:

  • Late-night calls and last-minute repairs
  • Screening tenants who seemed great — but weren’t
  • Coordinating vendors, chasing down receipts, filing evictions
    All of it adds up — not just in time, but stress, missed workdays, and burnout.

2. You Could Be Losing Thousands Per Year

Self-managing landlords often:

  • Underprice their rentals out of fear of vacancies
  • Choose poor-fit tenants due to rushed screenings
  • Delay repairs that lead to bigger expenses
    With a strong management system, a single-family home in Erie can earn more — consistently — with less turnover and risk.

3. Property Managers Aren’t Just Rent Collectors

At NashDom Realty, we:

  • Attract and screen top-tier tenants
  • Handle maintenance fast using trusted vendors
  • Collect rent securely and handle renewals for you
  • Use tools like Rentvine so you and your tenants stay informed in real-time
    And we do it all while keeping your long-term ROI as our top priority.

4. Your Time Is Worth More

Ask yourself: “How much is my time worth per hour?”

Now multiply that by the hours you’ve spent on your rental this month.

A property manager may cost 8–10% of the rent — but they save you 100% of the headaches.
