A Nebraska property management agreement is a written contract in which a landlord hire an individual to manage their property. The agreement details the ins and outs of the arrangement, including what the manager’s work will entail, their compensation (e.g., management fee, reduced rent), and the length of the contract. It ensures that the parties uphold their responsibilities and outlines the course of action in situations such as modifying leases, hiring contractors, and evicting tenants.
