Squire never charges extra fees for property management. And we mean absolutely never.

The average Maryland property management company charges a fee for property management (often 8% to 10%), plus a surcharge on maintenance work performed, a fee for inspections, a fee for legal compliance, a fee for lease renewals, etc. These extra fees create incentives that impair the full alignment of interests between property owners and property management companies. Our 7% fee is a competitive offering that drives our industry-leading model.

Squire conducts routine inspections and documents all the results in our portal.

We also offer text capability, automated rent payment reminders, and free online rent payments for all of our tenants. Our network of vendors is the cornerstone of our business and we rigorously monitor performance to ensure service is completed at the most competitive rate.

Some Recent Articles

How do you determine a property's optimal rent rate?

Calculating the correct market rental rate is one of Squire's - or any property management company's - most important roles. There is no single formula that can provide a property owner a perfect number, but we believe that relying on extensive data helps landlords make informed decisions that maximize rental revenue.

​

The most important concept for a landlord to understand when agreeing to a rental rate is the trade-off between the listed rental price and the total time a property is vacant. We'll explain more below, but the basic idea is that a more competitive listing will see greater tenant demand, more rental applications, and thus on average a shorter vacancy period. A unit that is listed for a rental price that is too low may rent more quickly due to greater demand, but can cost a landlord significantly in the long run by under-valuing a property. Alternatively, placing a tenant at a higher rental rate, but with a significant vacancy period, may actually cost a landlord money in forgone rent. The good news is that you can (and we argue must!) calculate some of the trade-offs in the rate-setting decision, which helps a landlord set a price that matches their individual demand for a tenant.
