Home Run Property Management & Real Estate Investment

I hesitated to respond to this complaint, because it's publication it may start a negative "Review Storm" from this owner However, I also feel we need to take the mission of the Revdex.com seriously I share the following only to tell the other side of the story There are partners for this rental home, one of the three owners is a gentleman who responds appropriately and professionally when we need to contact him The other two owners are challenging to work with They were often disrespectful in the way they communicated with us, saying they have been landlords and they knew how to do our job better than we did In the weeks prior to the meeting referred to in this complaint, he repeatedly told our staff that he "might as well take over managing this property" since in his opinion we were unable to handle the job to his satisfaction This owner showed up for the scheduled inspection at the property minutes late (not minutes), on a busy Saturday morning Saturdays are the busiest days of the week for property showings, so this delay caused a lot of re-scheduling work by our agent, which resulted in potential tenants not showing up or complaining that they were inconvenienced During the inspection of the property, the owner continued his way of communicating and was repeatedly rude to our agent, responding to answers our agent gave to his questions with comments like "do you think I don't know that!" There have been gardeners working at this home, not Nothing in the photos submitted by the owner of the yard are unusual to find at the end of a wet, windy winter Having an owner participate in the selection of a big ticket replacement, like a kitchen appliance, is not an unusual happening All expenses over $require the owner's input and approval We had discussed prior to Saturday, terminating this contract, due to their behavior towards our office staff After the meeting on Saturday we had had enough and sent them a day notice of termination of contract days notice is required by our contract and would have given them time to find another property manager When this owner received our notice, he responded that he wanted the contract terminated immediately We have accommodated his preference, cancelled the contract and closed his account We will not be refunding any management fees We did our job There are no costs associated that I know of with finding a new property manager I hope that any prospective customer or business owner that reads this response will understand that sometimes business relationships don't work out Different personalities, different expectations, or we just don't like working with each other It is still legal to quit a job for any reason It should be ok to terminate a business relationship that is not working well for either party without resorting to disparaging each other
