Firing of property manager

[Lisa Martin]

Property manager for one of my properties failed to notify me that the tenant left with no notice.  It wasn't until rent was 2 months unpaid that I messaged to ask what was going on.  Long story short it took them a month to notify me of a vacancy and only told me after I asked.   It took 6 weeks to get a rent ready bid.  They said it will be another 2-3 weeks until the work is done.  It is a fairly standard turn with paint, cleaning, junk out, and soffit repairs.    AH! 

Management agreement states 30-day notice for me to end the management agreement.   I'm thinking of changing management companies ASAP as I have another manager in the same market.   The reason I would leave is current manager is doing a terrible job and making me bleed $.    Do I give the 30 days' notice and keep letting this ride or just tell them their management is unacceptable and move on immediately? I have 3 properties with them and hate to burn bridges, but this is my investment!    

It's crazy how much I have to manage the manager  :-(

Thanks Bill. I'm on it! The other two properties are behind on rents as well and are receiving government assistance so it is complicated, and I will discuss with the new management.
