What Is a Landlord?
A landlord owns their property and leases it to another person or organization for rent. A tenant pays the owner for the right to occupy the landlord's property. The tenant has rights as spelled out in the lease agreement between him or her and the landlord.
What Is a Property Manager?
A property manager is hired by the landlord to manage their property. This means they are responsible for marketing their rental unit, screening renters, collecting rents, paying bills, and more. Property managers report back to landlords periodically about how things are going at the particular units they are caring for.
Where the Confusion Comes From
The line becomes blurred when some owners start to care for their own properties rather than hiring a property manager. In this case, the owner becomes both landlord and property manager — but they aren't really either role.
