Hiring or Switching Property Managers — Common Questions
Answers before you start
How do I hire a property manager in Wisconsin?
Start with a free rental analysis, complete our two onboarding forms, and we handle the walkthrough, lease review, and tenant transition. Most owners are fully handed off without lifting a finger after the forms.
How do I switch property managers in Wisconsin?
Your current management agreement controls the notice and timing. We review it with you, plan the handoff, and take over leasing, maintenance, rent collection, and reporting — your leases stay in place.
Can I hire Platinum if I currently self-manage?
Yes. Many owners come to us after managing on their own. The process is the same, and we set up your leasing, maintenance, rent collection, and reporting from scratch.
Will my tenants be affected when I change property management companies?
Your leases stay in place. We review them, inspect the units, introduce ourselves, and move residents onto our online portal for rent payment and maintenance requests.
What does onboarding cost?
There is a one-time onboarding fee based on property size. It covers your pre-management inspection, full property work-up, and account setup. You’ll get the exact amount with your free rental analysis.
