SFR - Ecorse, MI

To make a long story short, performing note converted to non-performing, DIL, property management failed not twice but 3 times, attorney, Steve Richter, has not returned my call after I paid him and my tenant squatters have not paid for 2 years.   Any good referrals  for attorneys and property managers?

    @Lynn Fujihara, sounds like you need an attorney for your attorney! haha.

    While you're searching for a new attorney and PM, I would immediately send the required late notices to the current tenants, via certified mail.  This all takes time so the sooner you start, the better.  Then start to research Michigan's eviction laws for when you can send an official notification and how.

    Have you officially terminated the PM?  There are typically fees associated to that unless they breached the contract and did not correct in time.  Review your Management Agreement's Termination policy and be comfortable with the terms for both parties to maintain so you can follow the proper process, if needed.

    No PM in place at this point. Old PM never released documents signed by previous owner. The eviction process was started by my attorney in December 2020 but due to Covid, court date never happened and my attorney disappeared.  There are court documents, but not sure how to proceed.  I have reached out to another attorney.  I was also told by the last PM that defaulted on me, that this is not uncommon and yet failed to help me.  I have not had any good stories on my out of state investments.

    Hey Lynn sent you a private message with some assistance.  Your story is not uncommon in the area, lots of bad managers and attorneys out there.  Happy to assist.
