How long does it take to rent out a place?

Friend just signed a purchase contract on a Woodbridge townhouse (or is it a condo? I have no idea) 3/3bath, 1600sq.ft. Since he's not local, he's going to hire a property management company to find a tenant for him and manage it for him. They told him that it would likely rent for $2500/month.

Does anyone have any idea how long it might take before they find a decent tenant for him?

Kind of worried about him and his carrying cost calculations. I'm not sure if he is prepared if it takes longer than a month to rent out the place... Maybe it really wouldn't take all that long?

Do you do that too? Manage rentals for folk? How much do you charge for your services?

How much depends upon how much they're asking me to do.

Plenty of references if your friend needs them. Feel free to PM me with specifics.

Thank you,
