Charge for Services Tenants Already Want, and Increase Your Monthly Income
You don't need to be a property manager to offer value-added services. Here's how to package and profit from them.
Help Tenants. Earn More. Win-Win.
Modern tenants want ease, speed, and simplicity, and many will pay extra to get it. Here are simple service-based income streams you can offer that benefit your tenants and boost your bottom line:
1. Monthly Cleaning or Lawn Packages
Partner with local cleaners or landscapers and offer discounted service packages as an opt-in. Mark up the cost slightly, you earn passive income while your property stays in better shape.
2. Renters Insurance Sign-Up Support
Make renters insurance mandatory, then offer to handle the sign-up (with a small admin fee). Most tenants will appreciate the ease, especially first-timers.
3. Package Lockers or Delivery Protection
Install basic lockboxes or secure package spaces in multi-unit properties. Charge $5-$15/month for access and peace of mind, especially in high-theft areas.
