“So happy we decided to go with Flat Fee Landlord to lease our home. Once we decided to move forward, they had all paperwork done, pictures completed and our home listed for lease within a few days — and a few days later, had a tenant.”

Three pressures every Northern Virginia owner hits, in roughly this order. None of them are personal failings — they’re just what a single owner can’t solve from a spreadsheet.
Mortgage, taxes, insurance, utilities — they don’t pause while the listing sits at $0 income. A 30-day delay on a $3,000 rental is $3,000 of cash flow you don’t get back.
Unpaid rent + property damage + Virginia eviction process runs $5,000–$15,000 per bad placement. Most owners learn this after — not before — they choose how they screen.
Marketing, showings, screening, lease drafting, maintenance triage, rent collection, accounting, compliance. Each one a discipline. Each one with a learning curve.
What an FFL-managed property looks like vs. what self-managed (or under-managed) looks like.
Without a guide
You list, screen, and hope the credit report tells the whole story.
With FFL as your guide
A 12-step screening — credit, income, employment HR call, landlord N-1 + N-2, criminal multi-jurisdiction — runs on every applicant before they sign.
Without a guide
You eat the vacancy every day the listing sits.
With FFL as your guide
A 21-day lease guarantee. If we miss it, your first 2 months of management fees are waived.
Without a guide
You absorb the maintenance triage at 11pm.
With FFL as your guide
A managed dispatch flow — vendor calls, scheduling, supervising, confirming — with you in the loop on approvals above $500.
Without a guide
You hope the rent line item adjusts the management fee each year.
With FFL as your guide
A flat monthly fee. Same fee on a $2,000 rental as a $5,000 one. Your rent shouldn’t dictate your management cost.
Without a guide
You build a tenant placement playbook from scratch every cycle.
With FFL as your guide
The same playbook runs every cycle. The under-1% eviction rate across 2,000+ NoVA placements is what it produces.
If that’s the picture you want
Three flat-fee plans, four guarantees in writing, no contact info first.
Every NoVA engagement runs this same path. Same playbook, same screening, same guarantees.
01
We walk the property, recommend rent range based on NoVA comps, and flag prep items that affect lease velocity. No contract yet, no obligation, just direction.
02
Listing goes live across 30+ syndicated channels, 12-step screening on every applicant, lease drafted by us. Auto-fires the 21-day guarantee window on Preferred and Concierge plans.
03
Rent collected, statements monthly, maintenance dispatched, owner portal with real-time visibility. You approve repairs over $500. You see every transaction.
04
A NoVA rental that performs without consuming your weekends. Back-stopped by four written guarantees and the under-1% eviction rate that earns them.
Not “credit + a reference call.” Ten discrete defensive layers — designed so the shortcuts that produce bad placements elsewhere don’t exist here. The under-1% eviction rate across 2,000+ NoVA placements is what it produces.
A plan you can run on
Same screening on every placement. Same flat fee on every property. Same four guarantees on every plan.
Four contractual guarantees on the management agreement. Each one auto-fires on a defined trigger. Each one has a defined payout. None of them is a webpage promise.
If your property doesn’t lease in 21 days, 2 months of management fees are on us. Auto-fires day 22.
Preferred & Concierge
Tenant breaks the lease inside the warranty window? We remarket, screen, and place the next tenant at no additional placement fee.
9 mo Preferred · 12 mo Concierge
If we have to evict a tenant we placed, we coordinate the process and pay the initial filing fees.
During warranty period
Unsatisfied in 90 days? Full refund of every management fee charged. After that, month-to-month.
All plans
Three plans, all flat. Your rent shouldn’t dictate your management fee.
Basic plan begins at
$139/mo
Flat. Same fee on a $2,000 rental as a $5,000 one.
Preferred and Concierge tiers are also flat, sized to your property. You see all three side-by-side in the quote builder in 60 seconds, before sharing contact info.

The questions every NoVA landlord asks before signing.
Most NoVA managers charge 8–10% of monthly rent. On a $3,500 rental that’s $280–$350/mo, and it goes up whenever rents go up. Flat Fee Landlord charges a flat fee — Basic begins at $139/mo, Preferred and Concierge are also flat, sized to property. The cost doesn’t track rent inflation, and it doesn’t go up if your tenant pays you more.
Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax, Falls Church, Loudoun, Manassas, Manassas Park, and Prince William. The team is based in Vienna (8000 Towers Crescent Dr, 13th Floor). Licensed in Virginia (broker #0226024843), with operations also in MD, DC, and TX for multi-jurisdiction owners.
Comps + active listings + market velocity in the specific NoVA submarket. We won’t over-list to win the engagement — over-listed properties sit and trigger the 21-day guarantee. We won’t under-list either; the goal is the highest rent the market will actually pay, leased fast.
If they were placed by another manager (or by you), we can take over management and work through the situation. Eviction coverage applies only to tenants we placed during the warranty period — for tenants you already had, we handle the process at your direction, with pass-through costs billed at cost (no markup).
Yes. 90-day satisfaction guarantee — full refund of every management fee charged in the first 90 days. After that, month-to-month with 30 days written notice, no penalty.
Yes — a meaningful share of our owners are federal employees on rotation, military on PCS, or out-of-state investors.
