How to deal with Property Management Company?

[Jenny Keffer]

I have one property, a house. my husband and I hired a property management company last year. From day one, they have been awful, irresponsible, etc. Long story short, the lease is up, the renters are moving. The PMC will not return my calls. My husband and I went to the property, changed the locks, took pictures of the damage and need to get the place ready to rent. We will never use a PMC again. At this point, how do I go about recovering the deposit from the PMC and is there a place to report them?  Any other tips/advice would be great. We rented the property once ourselves (great tenant) and then when they left, we thought the PMC would free up our time. As I said, it's been a nightmare. I have never dealt with such a lack of integrity, honesty and professionalism in any business I have dealt with.
