Why Property Owners Use This Service
Owning rental property from outside Philadelphia can create real problems when important City notices are mailed locally and no one is watching for them. Missing a violation notice, inspection letter, licensing communication, or service of process can lead to unnecessary stress, delays, and avoidable expenses.
Comporth acts as your Philadelphia-based Managing Agent so official correspondence is received, digitized, and forwarded to you promptly.
How Comporth Complements Philadelphia’s Landlord Gateway
Philadelphia’s Landlord Gateway centralizes City information for new and existing landlords, including rental licensing, tax compliance, lead certification, violations, and managing-agent requirements. It is a useful starting point—but landlords are still responsible for completing each requirement and responding to City notices.
Comporth provides hands-on compliance support and can serve as a Philadelphia-based Managing Agent for eligible property owners. We receive and electronically forward official correspondence so out-of-state landlords and investors can stay informed and protect their properties.

💡 Why We Offer This Service
At Comporth, we spend all day helping investors and property owners navigate the complex world of Philadelphia municipal codes, permits, and licensing. Over the years, we kept hearing the exact same frustration from independent landlords and out-of-state investors:
“I want to manage my own tenants and maintenance, but the City requires me to have a local Philadelphia address on my license. Full-service property management companies want to take 10% of my monthly rent just to serve as a mailbox.”
We built this service to bridge that exact gap.
We believe that independent real estate investors shouldn’t be penalized or forced into expensive management contracts just to satisfy a local compliance checkpoint. Our administrative Managing Agent service gives you the required legal presence in Philadelphia at an affordable, flat annual rate—leaving you completely free to run your day-to-day property operations your way.
Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing the Comporth’s Managing Agent service provides a Philadelphia-based point of contact for rental property owners who need official City correspondence, notices, licensing communications, or service of process received and forwarded promptly.
No. Comporth’s Managing Agent service is administrative only. It does not include rent collection, tenant management, repairs, maintenance requests, legal representation, or court appearances.
This service is ideal for out-of-state landlords, investors with Philadelphia rental properties, LLC-owned rental properties, owners who travel frequently, and anyone who needs a reliable Philadelphia-based contact.
Comporth receives the official correspondence, digitizes it, and forwards it electronically so the owner can review it and decide how to respond.
One subscription covers up to three properties owned by the same entity. Owners with more than three properties can contact Comporth for custom pricing.

Philadelphia requires many rental property owners who do not live or maintain a business office within the city to designate a qualified Philadelphia-based Managing Agent. If you don't have a local presence, Comporth can serve as your Managing Agent by providing a Philadelphia business address, receiving official City notices, and forwarding them to you quickly so you never miss important correspondence.

Important Legal Notice
Service of process or notice delivered to Comporth at its designated Philadelphia address constitutes legal notice to the owner for all matters related to the property.
Some City materials may describe “managing agents” more broadly, including maintenance requests, rent collection, or dispute resolution. Under this service, Comporth’s designation is expressly limited to receipt of notices and service of process only.
Tenant disclosure requirement: At the start of each tenancy, you must provide tenants the required contact information, including whether the Managing Agent is responsible for maintenance and, if not, the name, telephone number, and Philadelphia address — not a P.O. box — of the person or entity responsible for routine maintenance, as required by applicable law.
