Tenant Placement Service
Flat $499 Fee · Only $169 Upfront · Keep More Rental Income
Rent Faster · Save Thousands in Fees Why Pay A Full Month's Rent In Broker Commissions?
Traditional Chicago real estate brokerages and property managers charge 75% to 100% of one full month's rent just to find and place a tenant. That is $1,500 to $3,000+ out of your pocket every single vacancy.
At Fridman Properties, we believe rental owners deserve a faster, smarter, and far more affordable approach. Our Standalone Tenant Placement Service gives you complete professional leasing — premium multi-site syndication, 24/7 AI tenant response, secure automated self-guided showings with our included Digital LTE Lockbox, and thorough applicant screening — for a simple flat fee of just $499.
Self-Managing Your Own Properties?
This standalone placement service is created specifically for landlords who prefer to handle day-to-day management themselves, but want professional leasing firepower, faster occupancy, and zero full-month brokerage commissions.
Looking for full ongoing property management instead? We offer comprehensive full-service management starting at $75/mo with $0 placement fees. Explore Full Management Plans →

Got Questions? Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our standalone tenant placement service.
Can I use this if I manage my own properties?
Yes! That is exactly who this package is created for. Many landlords prefer handling their own ongoing maintenance and rent collection, but hate paying a full month's commission to brokers or spending hours traveling for showings. We handle the placement for a flat $499, and hand the qualified tenant over to you.
What happens if the property does not get rented?
You only pay the initial $169 for your Digital LTE Lockbox, which is shipped to you and remains your personal property permanently. You do NOT pay the remaining $330 balance unless we successfully find, screen, and place a tenant who signs the lease.
How are self-guided property tours kept safe and secure?
Security is our top priority. Prospective renters must verify their identity by uploading a government-issued photo ID (driver's license or passport) and validating their mobile phone number. Only after verification do they receive a temporary, single-use access code that expires after their scheduled showing window.
Does the lockbox require internet or Wi-Fi at the rental property?
No Wi-Fi or property internet is required! The lockbox comes equipped with built-in multi-carrier LTE cellular connectivity across AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. It works independently right out of the box.
What if I decide I want full ongoing property management later?
You can transition to our full property management plan anytime! Our ongoing management starts at just $75/property per month and includes rent collection, 24/7 maintenance dispatch, accounting, inspections, and $0 placement fees on renewals and re-leases.
