Property management in Connecticut typically costs between 6% and 12% of monthly rent collected. But the percentage is only part of the story. Most CT property managers stack additional fees that can add hundreds or even thousands per year.
Common fees to watch for: setup/onboarding fees ($200-$500), lease renewal fees ($100-$300/year), maintenance markups (10-20% on top of contractor costs), annual administrative fees ($100-$200), and early termination penalties.
At Saini Property Management, we offer custom service tiers built around your property's needs — from Tenant Placement Only to full-service Premium and Elite Management. Every plan is tailored to your situation, with zero add-on fees on our all-inclusive tier.
What makes our model different isn't just the pricing — it's the alignment. We only charge our management fee when rent is collected. If we can't collect rent, we don't get paid. That's a fundamentally different incentive structure than most CT property managers.
The real question isn't 'how much does property management cost?' — it's 'what's the return on that cost?' A great property manager should increase your NOI enough to more than cover their fees through higher rents, lower vacancy, reduced maintenance costs, and better tenant retention.
