Dry leases, explainedOwner billing
On the owner's side of every invoice
A low management fee is easy to advertise. The money can come back through a markup on fuel or a handling charge on parts. At MJM, every vendor invoice reaches you at actual cost, with the original attached.
- Fuel at the contract price, with the supplier invoice
- Maintenance and parts at the shop's invoiced amount
- No rebates or commissions from vendors
- One management fee, on its own line
