Property management & eviction
Hey all,
We have a property in Phoenix under property management. Our PM is evicting a tenant who is now forcing us to bring the case to eviction court. Our PM suggested that we put some sort of document in place to allow him to act on our behalf in court so that we do not need to have an official lawyer stand in and pay the legal fees. Is this a typical procedure? If so, what sort of document would give him the rights necessary to stand in on at an eviction hearing on our behalf? Thanks.

The management agreement should already have a limited power of attorney section built into it or some verbiage about the management company being the agent of the owner.
