Property Management
In Colorado, a property management company that also owns rental properties they manage for themselves creates a potential conflict of interest when:
AA. There are no conflict issues in this scenario
BB. The company places tenants in owner-client properties only after filling their own units first, prioritizing their own interests over the owner-client's✓ Correct
CC. The company charges the same management fee for their own units
DD. Only when the company has more than 50 units
Explanation
A property management company that manages its own properties in addition to client properties has a potential conflict of interest: they may be tempted to prioritize placing tenants in their own units before filling client units. Disclosure of this conflict is important, and management agreements should address how the company will handle the prioritization of available units.
