Negligence by Property Manager
So I had my property manager rehab my rental earlier this year. Part of the repairs were some roof issues. I've been having a hard time getting a hold of anyone there, no returned calls or emails for some time. I then received an email from them that they no longer wish to manage the house since it is in bad condition. I followed up with the tenant and she showed me that she's been placing work orders for repairs since July and nobody from the management company addressed a small leak from the roof. Well now, the drywall has fallen down in two rooms; what was an easy fix has now become a larger issue.
Do I have any legal recourse in suing the PM for negligence? There is no hold harmless clause in the contract.
