The Problem

One Bad Tenant Can Cost You $5,000–$15,000. Most Landlords Find Out Too Late.

Missed rent. Legal fees. A property left in worse shape than you found it. The average bad-tenant episode costs landlords $5,000–$15,000 before it's over — and months of stress you can't bill for.

Percentage-based property managers don't have a financial incentive to care who moves in. Their fee comes regardless. Your risk is yours alone.

That's the model FFL was built to replace. But first — meet the reason it exists.

The Villain

Meet Ruckus.

Ruckus isn't just a bad tenant. He's every landlord nightmare rolled into one. The burst pipe. The missed rent. The HVAC that quits in August. The eviction that drags for months. He shows up in a hundred different ways — and he always shows up when you're least prepared.

Burst pipe — 2am, Sunday, dead of winter.$5,000–$20,000
HVAC failure — August, peak heat, fully your problem.$4,000–$12,000
Eviction — court dates, legal fees, 90 days of nothing.90+ days unpaid
Storm damage. Flood. Insurance gaps you didn't know existed.Thousands unrecovered

FFL was built to protect you from all of it.

Our Perfect 10ant System™ screens out the bad tenant. Our guarantees cover what goes wrong anyway. And our team handles the 2am calls so you don't have to.

We were not having any luck selling so we reached out to Mo who answered all of my questions with super quick responses. Within days we had a tenant. Couldn't be happier.

They screened our tenant thoroughly — background check, employment verification, landlord references. We felt completely confident in who was moving into our property.

The online portal makes everything transparent. I can see rent payments, maintenance requests, and financial statements anytime. Best property manager I've worked with.

Switched from a percentage-based manager and instantly saved over $200/month. The service is actually better too — more responsive, more transparent, more professional.
