A Maryland Property Management Agreement is a legal document between a landlord and a property manager that outlines the responsibilities of both parties. It serves to protect both parties in the event of a dispute or disagreement. The agreement typically outlines the duties of the property manager, such as managing tenant relations, collecting rent, maintaining the premises, and handling repairs. It also details the compensation for the manager, including fees, commissions, and other benefits. There are two main types of Maryland Property Management Agreements: residential and commercial. The residential agreement is used when a landlord has one or more rental properties, while the commercial agreement is used when a landlord has multiple commercial properties. Both agreements outline the duties and rights of the property manager and landlord, as well as the terms of the agreement.
