Full-Service Property Management
Owning a rental should not mean being on call. Blackbuck takes the whole job — finding the tenant, collecting the rent, coordinating repairs, and keeping the lease compliant with Texas law — and reports back to you every month.
What You Pay
Three Things You Never Pay
And the One Percentage
On a $400 repair that's $40. On a $12,000 roof it's $250, not $1,200.
Month to month. No fixed term and no termination fee — cancel with 30 days' written notice.
Flat $100 monthly management, any rent, no tiers. Leasing is $1,200 flat. Lease renewal is $200 and includes one mid-tenancy inspection. Repair coordination is 10% of the vendor invoice, capped at $250 per job. Home-warranty and insurance claims carry no fee. Inspections are $100, with move-in and move-out performed as standard. Tenants pay a one-time $150 lease administration fee at signing and an application fee — there is no recurring monthly resident fee.

What full-service actually covers
Full-service management means there is no part of the job left on your desk. We handle the lease-up, the tenancy, and the turnover — and the pieces between them that owners usually discover the hard way: the vendor who does not show, the late-fee notice that has to go out on the right day, the deposit accounting that has to be right within 30 days of move-out under Texas Property Code Chapter 92.
You keep every decision that matters. Approval thresholds for repairs, renewal pricing, and whether to accept a given applicant are yours. We bring the recommendation and the data behind it.
Priced to align with your results
Management is a flat $100 a month, whatever the rent — the same figure on a $1,400 house and a $4,000 one. If the property is vacant, there is no management fee at all. Tenant placement is a one-time $1,200, renewals are $200 and include a mid-tenancy inspection, and setup is free.
There are no onboarding fees, no technology fees, and no markup on maintenance beyond the published 10% coordination fee, which is capped at $250 per job. What you see on this page is what appears on your statement.
Built by someone who has owned the problem
Blackbuck was founded by a real estate investor who has personally owned and managed more than 28 rental units since 2008. Every policy here — the approval thresholds, the inspection cadence, the way we price renewals — comes from having been on the owner's side of it.
The test we apply to every recommendation is simple: what would we do if this were our own investment?

Full-Service Property Management Questions
What does full-service property management cost in the Austin area?
Blackbuck charges a flat $100 a month for full-service management, any rent, with no tiers — plus a one-time tenant placement fee of $1,200. Lease renewals are $200 and include a mid-tenancy inspection, inspections are $100 each, and repair coordination is 10% of the vendor invoice capped at $250 per job. There is no setup fee.
Do I still pay the management fee while the property is vacant?
No. A vacant month carries no management fee at all — the $100 is charged only while the home is tenanted. That keeps our incentives aligned with filling the property quickly and with a tenant who pays, and because the fee is flat rather than a share of rent, nothing we recommend about pricing is shaded by what it does to our own invoice.
How much control do I keep over my property?
You set the maintenance approval threshold, approve renewal pricing, and retain final say on rent. We handle execution and bring you the analysis behind each recommendation. Day-to-day tenant contact, vendor dispatch, and compliance are ours.
How do I get paid?
We collect rent, deduct the management fee and any approved expenses, and disburse the balance by the 10th of each month with an itemized statement in your owner portal.
