Rental property and Property Management Service? - all valley property management

I want to buy a new house, and plan to rent the house I now live. It is a 4-room house with garden in a beautiful garden, quiet Little Valley Forge, PA suburbs.

I've never rented a home and away, this is my first time. I am asking $ 1200 per month rent. The house was listed available until late January / early February 2008, but an ad on craigslist last Saturday and has 2 hits people who are "very" concerned that makes me happy!

My mother took the rental business as well, but it began a year ago. I suggested that they like a service and property management, to mention the demands of the tenants handle, rent collection, and more importantly, no problem with the aircraft or destroying things. The service uses the same contact with tenants who have problems, while it repaired under $ 500 (heal and then send) the bill. Works of $ 80 per month.

What are the pros and cons of such a service?
