Roman Estrada
Fees and contracts at Five Borough Host Review.
Reads exit clauses before price lists. Has moved three family units between managers across two boroughs and writes the fee tables on this desk.
What Roman covers
Roman covers management companies and what they actually charge — the published fee, what it leaves out, and the exit terms owners only read once it is too late. Every piece of that work is held to how we test and our editorial policy, which means no company can pay for a place, a score, or a kinder sentence.
How Roman works
Nothing Roman publishes rests on a vendor’s summary of itself. Where a company does not publish a fee or a price, the review says so plainly rather than printing a guess dressed up as research. Our weighting leans hardest on reliability (40%), time saved (25%), and the same rubric is applied to every company in the field — the one we rank first included.
Where you will see Roman’s work
Across our two rankings — management companies and host software — and in the individual reviews, which now run to 95 management companies and 74 software tools, each on its own page with the provider’s published facts laid out in full.
