Our approach is tailored to the unique needs of each property type, ensuring smooth leasing, reliable maintenance, and steady cash flow.
Why GPS Renting?
We’re not your traditional residential property management company. At GPS Renting, we believe in transparent pricing, reliable service, and modern technology to deliver a better experience for both owners and residents. Our mission is simple: make property management professional, honest, and kind.
Transparent, Straightforward Pricing
Unlike most Seattle property management firms, we don’t charge setup fees, lease renewal fees, or tenant placement fees. Instead, we offer a flat 10% management fee based solely on monthly rent. This simplified pricing structure saves our clients an estimated 18%–38% annually compared to other companies.
According to property management expert Lucas Hall of Landlordology, simplicity in fee structures builds trust and long-term relationships between owners and managers. (Source)
