The Damelecia difference
Owner-led, not outsourced
Melecia Johnson started in 2007 managing her own investment properties. Today Damelecia manages Broward County rentals for owners and investors. When you call, you reach an owner of the company – not a rotating account rep or an out-of-state call center.
Broward & Boca, in depth
We focus on Broward County and Boca Raton – faster on-site response, submarket pricing knowledge, and established HOA and vendor relationships.
Pricing with nothing hidden
On our Gold plan: flat 10% of rent collected. One-month leasing fee when a new lease is signed. No setup fee. No renewal fee. No markup on maintenance. Vacant months: $0 management fee.
