Are Your Rentals Actually Performing or Just Surviving?

Are Your Rentals Actually Performing or Just Surviving?

Member since 2026 · 1 post · 1 vote

Are you currently self-managing your rentals, or working with a property management company?

I’ve been in property management for 15+ years (Section 8, tax credit, conventional), and lately I’ve been working more closely with smaller portfolios (1–20 units) here in Frederick.

I’m seeing a lot of owners dealing with:
• Late or inconsistent rent
• Maintenance delays or high repair costs
• Tenant turnover issues
• Compliance challenges (licensing, Section 8, inspections)

For those who own in the area — what’s been your biggest challenge lately?

    Andrea — loved this post. You named every single thing smaller landlords are struggling with, and it's exactly what I solve day to day.

    @Andrea Jackson curious about your section 8 investors. What separates those who execute well with Section 8 and those who don't?
