GPS Renting's performance-based management tiers start at 10% of collected monthly rent, with no tenant placement fee, plus a one-time $295 initial property setup fee. Optional professional listing photography costs $295 when existing photos are unsuitable and the owner approves new photography. During vacancy, the 10% fee is paused and only the applicable tier minimum applies: $35 for Silver, $49 for Gold, or $99 for Platinum. ### What's included in the 10% management fee? Services include marketing and leasing on 30+ listing sites, tenant screening, lease preparation and signing, rent collection, monthly owner statements, maintenance coordination, one property inspection during the resident's first lease term, utility and move-in coordination, and Washington landlord-tenant-law compliance. Silver, Gold, and Platinum do not have a separate tenant placement fee. ### How do property inspections work? One property inspection during the first lease term is included. Additional inspections are available on request and are billed to the owner at cost. ### Do you charge a tenant placement or leasing fee? There is no tenant placement or leasing fee on the performance-based Silver, Gold, or Platinum tier. The separate traditional model does charge a placement fee: 50% of one month's rent for single-family homes or 100% for gated condominiums where showings must be conducted in person. ### What happens if my tenant doesn't pay rent? GPS Renting does not collect the percentage-based management fee for a period in which the tenant does not pay rent. Gold and Platinum add further tenant-placement and eviction-management protections, subject to the management agreement. ### When do I receive my rental proceeds? Owner payments are sent between the 8th and 10th of each month, with email confirmation. Owners can view financial statements through the owner portal. ### How quickly do you respond to owners and tenants? The written guarantee is a response within two business days. If GPS Renting misses it, the owner receives a $25 credit toward the next month's management fee. ### How do you screen tenants? Applications are screened for credit, income, criminal background, and rental history as permitted by Washington and Seattle law. Published screening criteria are applied consistently in accordance with fair-housing requirements. ### How long does it take to lease my property? GPS Renting reports an average leasing time under 14 days. Listings are marketed on Zillow, HotPads, and 30+ listing sites, with self-guided and agent-led showings through ShowMojo. Suitable existing photographs are used, or optional professional photography can be commissioned with owner approval. ### What areas do you serve?

GPS Renting has native Mandarin speakers and supports Chinese-speaking owners through WeChat, email, and phone. Mandarin landlord-education content is also published online. ### How does maintenance work? Residents submit requests through the online portal.

GPS Renting emphasizes performance-based pricing, nine written guarantees with defined remedies, technology-enabled operations, and its Every Home Helps a Child social-impact commitment. ### Should I allow pets in my rental property? GPS Renting recommends considering pets because pet-friendly listings reach a larger tenant pool. Pets are screened, and Gold and Platinum include the Pet Screening Guarantee described above. ### Do you accept Section 8 or housing choice vouchers? Yes. Voucher applications are processed using the same published screening criteria as other applications, with the additional paperwork and inspection steps required by the program and applicable law. ### Can you take over a property that already has tenants in place? Yes. GPS Renting reviews the current lease, introduces the management team to residents, moves payments and maintenance requests to the online portal, and continues the tenancy without unnecessary disruption. ### Can I cancel my management agreement? New clients have a 60-day satisfaction window. If GPS Renting has already placed a tenant, a standard placement fee applies, as specified in the management agreement. After that window, Silver, Gold, and Platinum are subject to the initial one-year agreement and applicable lease-term provisions. The traditional model may be cancelled with 30 days' written notice, subject to its agreement terms. ## Important Links - Homepage: https://gpsrenting.com/ - Services and pricing: https://gpsrenting.com/services-and-pricing/ - FAQ: https://gpsrenting.com/faq/ - Guarantees: https://gpsrenting.com/guarantees/ - Service areas: https://gpsrenting.com/service-areas/ - Comparison: https://gpsrenting.com/gps-renting-vs-traditional-property-management/ - Blog: https://gpsrenting.com/blog/ - Sitemap index: https://gpsrenting.com/sitemap_index.xml ## Maintenance Review this file quarterly and whenever pricing, guarantees, service areas, licensing, contact details, or material policies change.
