If you’re a rental property owner, you’ve probably heard a lot of opinions about property management—many of which are outdated or flat-out wrong. At Flatmint, we’re setting the record straight.

Let’s debunk the top 5 myths:

1. ❌ “Property management is only for big investors.”

Truth: Whether you own one unit or ten, professional management can save you time, reduce stress, and increase returns. Many of our clients are first-time or single-property owners.

2. ❌ “It’s too expensive.”

Truth: Flatmint uses a transparent flat-rate pricing model—no percentage-based surprises or hidden fees. Many owners find that our service pays for itself in vacancy prevention and issue resolution.

Truth: We keep owners informed every step of the way and offer full visibility through our online portal. You stay in control—without the day-to-day hassle.

4. ❌ “Tenants don’t like property managers.”

Truth: Our tenants appreciate responsive service, clear communication, and timely maintenance—all of which improve their rental experience.

5. ❌ “It’s easier to self-manage.”

Truth: It might seem that way—until you’re dealing with legal notices, after-hours repairs, or a challenging vacancy. Flatmint simplifies it all for you.
