Property management in Metro Detroit costs a monthly management fee (usually a percentage of rent), a leasing fee each time a new tenant is placed, and a few smaller one-time or optional fees; at JMZ Management that means 10% of monthly rent with a $100 monthly minimum, plus a leasing fee equal to the first month's rent. Below is the full 2026 fee breakdown, with worked examples so you can estimate your own cost.

If you’re new to real estate investment, or you find

investor turn sour.
