Count the work before comparing the fee.
List preparation, marketing, showings, screening coordination, collections, repairs, records and renewals. Estimate your own time for routine months as well as vacancies and unexpected issues. Include local access and response availability in the comparison.
Then review a management proposal against the same task list. The owner still sets investment goals, budget and important decisions; the delegated work should be explicit.
Use the actual Pomona home, approved rental model and your ability to coordinate locally in the comparison.

Explore your own assumptions.
Adjust the worksheet to your property and costs, then record what needs review before you act.
Routine monthly hours plus annual irregular hours divided by 12. The second figure multiplies that time by your personal planning value. It is not a cash saving, management quote or estimate of time a provider will eliminate. Starting figures are hypothetical examples, not Pomona market data or a GnG quote.
Your action checklist.
Use the actual Pomona home, approved rental model and your ability to coordinate locally in the comparison.
A few things worth asking.
Does management remove every owner decision?+
Define the responsibilities. Investment choices, approval authority and major property decisions remain part of the owner plan.
Can I delegate only the busiest tasks?+
Compare the available written scopes and their handoff responsibilities rather than assuming any custom combination is offered.
