📋 Quick Context
You said: "I do all of it right now. I'm one busy lady 😂" and "I thought they would handle the rental side of it. Less work for me."
Important distinction:
BROKERS: Handle the ENTIRE rental process (listing, inquiries, showings, screening, credit checks, leases). Cost: $400-600 per rental.
MY SETUP SERVICE: Handle only the TECHNICAL setup (creating accounts, listing 20 units, training you). You still handle ALL the ongoing rental work. Cost: $650 one-time.
Three Options
Use a Broker
Broker Handles:
- List all 20 units
- Respond to inquiries
- Schedule & conduct showings
- Screen applicants
- Credit/background checks

- Coordinate leases
Your Time: 1-2 hrs/month
Best if: Want hands-off rental management

💰 What My $650 Setup Saves You
vs. Using a Broker (Year 1)
Break even after just 2 rentals, then pure savings.
Important: My service does NOT reduce your ongoing workload - only saves setup time.
💡 My Recommendation
Based on "I'm one busy lady" and wanting "less work":
It sounds like you want LESS ONGOING WORK, not just setup help.
- Broker: Reduces workload (1-2 hrs/month) but costs $8k-12k/year
- My Setup: Saves setup time only, you still do 8-10 hrs/month
Question: Are you okay handling ongoing rental work (inquiries, showings, screening) if I make setup easy? Or do you need someone to reduce the ongoing workload too?
