5 Reasons Tenants Want a Private Landlord - Stateline Publications
Renters seek direct maintenance help, pet flexibility and rent relief, while research says corporate landlords charge higher rents and file evictions more often.
- Nearly half of the country's 49.7 million rental units sit on properties with four or fewer units, giving tenants ample opportunity to find private landlords and avoid corporate management companies.
- Individual owners offer direct communication for maintenance requests and flexible arrangements that corporate entities often restrict, such as accommodations for well-behaved pets or late rent payments.
- Research indicates corporate landlords ask higher rents and file evictions more frequently than individual owners; federal regulators have also reached multimillion-dollar settlements with large rental companies over hidden fees.
- Renters identify private arrangements by browsing neighborhood groups and sorting listings by owner, deliberately avoiding listings that direct them to leasing offices managed by corporations.
- While institutional investors are acquiring some small properties, the rental market remains split by building size, underscoring ongoing tenant preference for personalized service over corporate standardization.
