Property Management Fee Calculator for Canadian Landlords

Full-service property managers charge 8–12% of your monthly rent, plus leasing fees, plus vendor markups. On a $2,500/mo Toronto unit that's $2,400–$3,600 a year, forever. Central Rentals is flat-priced software that does 90% of what a property manager does — for CA$5/month. This tool shows you the break-even point and the annual savings.

The pain today

  • 8–12% of rent evaporates every month — invisible on your statement, real on your bank
  • Leasing fees add another half-month of rent every tenant turnover
  • Vendor markups (15% on every repair) inflate your maintenance line
  • The property manager screens tenants their way — you can't override a bad-fit call

How Central Rentals solves it

Skim vs. software math

Enter your monthly rent and your PM's % — we show the annual skim and the number of months until Central Rentals pays for itself (usually month 1).

Flat CA$5/month for the first door

Every additional door is priced at software rates — never a percentage of your rent. Scale from 1 to 50 doors without a marginal cost hike.

Keep control of every decision

You screen, you approve, you set the rent. The software runs the busy-work; you keep the strategy.

Same-day migration from any PM

Export your PM's rent roll, upload the CSV, and every unit is live in the platform within an hour. No downtime.

How much can I save with Central Rentals vs. a property manager?

For a $2,500/mo Toronto unit at 10% PM fee, Central Rentals saves ~$2,940/year on the PM skim alone, plus any leasing and vendor-markup savings.

Is this a full replacement for a property manager?

For 90% of Canadian landlords with 1–25 doors, yes. Absentee landlords who never want to touch a tenant message may still prefer a full-service PM — Central Rentals handles the rest of the market.
