Why the Cheapest Isn’t the Best
Many landlords think going with the lowest property management fee will help maximize profits. But if you’ve been in this game for a while, you know that rental property ownership is far from passive—unless you have the right team supporting you. At Blue Anchor, we’ve seen firsthand how discount property management can quietly destroy investments. That’s why we’re raising the bar (and yes, that means rates too).
You Get What You Pay For
Low monthly fees might sound tempting, but they come at a high cost:
- Missed maintenance that turns $200 fixes into $5,000 headaches.
- Poor screening that leads to unpaid rent and constant turnover.
- Slow responses that damage your reputation and tenant satisfaction.
- Minimal protection when things go wrong.
Let’s be honest—if a PM company is charging $100 per door per month, how many doors do they need to stay afloat? And how much real attention are they giving your property?
The Industry Is Shifting—and So Are We
Across North America, top-performing property management companies are leaving behind outdated, razor-thin fee structures. They’re adopting modern pricing models that reflect the true scope of what it takes to manage a property properly. Because high-quality management requires:
- Smart tech infrastructure for automation and 24/7 communication.
- Dedicated, professional staff focused on solving problems—not just answering calls.
- Deep compliance knowledge, especially in Ontario’s strict regulatory landscape.
- Ongoing risk mitigation, including credit reporting and preventive inspections.
At Blue Anchor, we’re moving in this same direction because our clients deserve better than burnout-level service. We’re restructuring our fees to create a more sustainable, professional standard that protects your investment long-term.
The Truth About "Value" in Discount Property Management
When another company promises "full-service" for rock-bottom pricing, ask yourself:
⚓ What corners are they cutting to make that math work?
The reality is simple:
- Cheap managers are reactive, not proactive.
- They rely on volume—not quality—to survive.
- That affects your bottom line, not just theirs.
Discount property management can leave you with higher tenant turnover, lower rental income, and surprise repair bills. In the long run, you pay far more than you save upfront.
