Frequently Asked Questions

Consolidation pricing?

Small portfolio (<500 units): 4-5% gross rent. Mid (500-2500): 3-4%. Large (2500+): 2.5-3.5%. Single-manager consolidation reduces fees through volume discount. Typical savings 0.5-1.5% of gross rent.

Service quality?

Consolidation often improves service: dedicated resources, professional teams, better systems, reporting standardization. Vendor relationships stronger. Replacement risk (manager departure) reduced at scale.

Risks?

Vendor concentration (single point of failure). Specific properties may underperform. Transition friction (learning curve). Loss of local expertise. Select consolidator carefully; reference check extensively.

How often should I rerun this?

Rerun this calculator whenever inputs change materially — new rent roll data, rate moves, loan balance updates, or quarterly operating data. For active deals, monthly refresh is typical. For stabilized assets under monitoring, quarterly is fine. Treat the output as a decision tool, not a one-time answer — market conditions evolve and so should your analysis.
