Paid employees will naturally not work for the player until they can provide the employees' salaries. Once the fees are paid, services will resume when the next in-game day starts. Should there be insufficient funds to cover fees, utilities like water and power will be turned off, preventing activities like watching TV or taking showers. Offices, for example, come with an Assistant, at $300 per day. The most common one is that any property with a garage incurs a $50 daily fee for its Garage Mechanic. Generally, properties with employees need to be paid a salary on top of the other fees.

Naturally, the more expensive a property is, the higher the fees. These range from $25 for a low-end Dynasty 8 apartment to several thousand for certain businesses or upgraded properties. These will be listed as 'property and utilities' transactions. The other main difference in GTA Online is that owning a property incurs daily fees that are paid automatically from the player's bank account each in-game day that they spend playing the game.
