Maryland Property Management —
Better Tenants. Faster Placement. Full Protection.

We charge a flat monthly fee — not a percentage of your rent. Most Maryland property managers charge 8–10% of monthly rent, which means a Bethesda property at $3,100/mo costs you $248–$310/mo in management fees alone. With Flat Fee Landlord, your management fee stays the same whether your property rents for $1,800 in Hyattsville or $3,500 in Chevy Chase. Tenant placement and lease warranty are priced separately.

Yes. Every lease we draft complies with the Maryland Real Property Code (Title 8), including the 45-day security deposit return requirement, lead paint disclosure rules (Maryland requires disclosure for all pre-1978 properties), required move-in/move-out inspection reports, and Montgomery County and Howard County-specific landlord licensing requirements. Maryland landlord-tenant law is among the most complex in the Mid-Atlantic — we track it so you don't have to.

Our Maryland metro average is 16 days from listing to signed lease. High-demand areas like Bethesda, Chevy Chase, and Potomac often lease in under two weeks due to steady government and corporate demand. Our 21-day placement guarantee means we have a direct financial incentive to move quickly.

We cover Montgomery County (Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Potomac, Rockville, North Bethesda, Silver Spring, Gaithersburg, Germantown), Howard County (Columbia, Ellicott City), and Prince George's County (Bowie, Hyattsville) — plus surrounding communities throughout the D.C. suburbs.

Maryland evictions take 45–60 days on average — significantly longer than Virginia (8–12 weeks) or Texas (30–60 days). The process requires a Failure to Pay Rent complaint filed in District Court, a court hearing, and a 4-day right of redemption after judgment. We handle the entire process — filings, court appearances, and tenant coordination — so you never navigate Maryland District Court alone. Eviction protection is included with management.

Yes — and Maryland's proximity to D.C. means a significant portion of our tenant pool works for the federal government, the NIH, Walter Reed, or foreign embassies. Government tenants offer stable income (GS pay scales are public), but shutdown periods and PCS-style transfers require specific lease clauses. We build these protections into every lease.

Montgomery County has considered rent stabilization measures multiple times. While no county-wide rent control is currently in effect for single-family homes, the legislative environment is active and landlords need to stay informed. We monitor all proposed legislation and advise our landlords when pending bills could affect their properties or lease terms.

Maryland rents are among the highest in the country — $2,000–$3,500/mo across our coverage area. At 8–10%, that translates to $160–$350/mo in management fees. The percentage model penalizes Maryland landlords disproportionately because your rents are so high. Our flat fee means you keep more of the rent in a high-rent market — the savings compound faster here than in almost any other market we serve.
