Property Owner name on Lease Agreement with Management co?
This is the first I've seen this and can't find a definitive answer, hoping someone smarter than me can share input.
I have recently switched management companies for one of my properties and now that we have a new tenant in place, this management company is insisting that my name and initials are on the lease as the landlord.
I've worked with 3 management companies across 2 states and have never had a request for me to add my name and sign off on the lease agreement. I obviously don't want anything personally identifiable on the lease for a variety of reasons.
This management company is suggesting this is the law but can't provide the actual law. Now stating it's their "policy".
Anyway, has anyone else experienced this? It's a first for me for sure...
Thanks
