I agree...I have tried 5 or 6 property managers over the years, and they were all bad...just out for their commission. Didn't do anything to earn it. I gave them all the clients...one of the clients has been a repeat customer for over 14 years. The Property Manager I had, did find a 6 month tenant once, but that turned out to be a disaster. She didn't screen them and caused me to loose about $5000 when the tenant destroyed the inside of the house (non-smoking house, but it had cigarette burn marks all over the carpeting, bedspreads, sheets, graffiti on wall and furniture, 4 broken lamps, things missing , etc etc etc) and she did not do a walk-thru before giving their deposit back. I would never use a property manager again. I do it long distance from California and it is much much easier.
