The Law of the Main Game: Darren Hunter on Fee Psychology, Routine Inspections & Negotiation

In Part 2 of this 2-part series, host Kylie Lange continues her deep dive into fee maximization with property management training authority Darren Hunter from Inspired Growth Training (IGT).

Darren pulls back the curtain on client psychology, explaining why property managers fall into the trap of low fees—and how to overcome the dreaded objection: "But the other agent is cheaper!" From understanding the "Law of the Main Game" to introducing green-light fees like tenant exit charges and realistic routine inspection rates, this episode is a masterclass in knowing your worth.

In this episode:

✅The Law of the Main Game: Why owners only care about the management fee
✅Unlocking New Revenue: Introducing the tenant exit fee and pricing routine inspections appropriately
✅The Cost of "Cheap" Fees: Why 3% management fees bleed thousands of dollars from a business
✅Mastering the Negotiation Game: Scripts and tactics to respond when prospective clients ask for a discount
