This is why we do our own apartments, we know whats going on. When you have a management company things get lost.
Best of luck to you!!!!  |
I agree. Do not pay any amount that is in dispute. Send them the rest of the money by certified mail. Include a note explaining that you did give them notice, and let them take you to court if they want. Then you can explain it to the judge, and if the judge says you have to pay then you have to pay.
Finding the copy of the notice will not help much if you didn't mail it by certified mail because they could claim that yoyu just now made up that notice.
There are companie out there that will do that cause most yhoung people get frightened and pay. But once you pay you will never get it back. They cannot get a judgement against you without first taking you to court. Be sure to give them the keys and maybe even get a receipt or them.
Some management companies ar unscrupulous because they are paid on a commision.
I manage my own property also.
