Tony is right that TOTV offers a great service publicizing places for rent, but as the owner, your big decision is whether you can work things out with renting when you are not there. If you are like me, a distance away, it's impossible not to have a management company see to all the details and protect my interests when I have tenants.
That said, I've had three management companies in five years. I fired the Villages Property Mgt after one year. Their rules, fees, etc. drove me crazy! I hired a small local company. Better because of the personal touch, but the owners have retired. Now I'm with JD Management, at
www.thevillagesforrentbyowner.com They are the best!! They manage about 100 properties so they can advertise and keep a high quality website, but it's a family operation which is immediately responsive to what I need - and on a first name basis. Check them out!
