I used property management for years until I got 'big enough' to develop my own 'property management'. You don't have to engage a property management service, but then YOU will have all the phone calls and headaches. |

If you are buying vacant lots you don't need a property manager. If you are going to be leasing or renting the property either your management company or you must take care of collecting rent, selecting renters, marketing the property, handling disputes, fixing the furnace, etc. |

It depends on how hands on you want to be as a landlord. For many owners it is worth it to pay a percentage to have someone else advertise, show and lease the units and collect rent, serve eviction papers, etc. |

I work for the government, and most property owner sget leasing companies if they don't want to deal with the tax part of it. You really don't need a property management company unless you don't want to be bothered with the government. |

The Bulgarian property market is producing some fevered activity amongst European overseas property buyers. Examine the Bulgarian housing market and it's easy to see why this region is causing so much excitement. Low prices and rental opportunities that cover both summer and winter periods makes Bulgaria attractive for overseas property investment.

It depends on what you are doing and on what scale.
Most smaller real estate investors, those who own a few properties that are within a few miles of where they live, do all the property management themselves.
Those who use property managers generally fall within these categories:
They own properties outside the area they can easily travel to - maybe in another town or even another state.
They own lots of rentals or several commercial properties and they don't have the time to do their own property management.
They just don't want to deal with renters, so they hire a management company to handle that part of the business.
I've done both. Normally, I would just handle my own management. However I have several properties I own in different states so I have management companies handle those. |

It will save you from being sued if something goes wrong. You can keep your personal things while the management company will lose it all. |

depends on how many tenants you have.really its not that hard to manage. you need to be available and handy.renting isn't difficult either but be sure to choose new tenants properly. Evections are another story |

I dont but I also dont have a FT job. I spend my time with my buildings. If you are working FT and owning property you might consider it. Management companies are also good if you are not living local to your property. |
