property manager does not do lease
On my first property this year. I went with this particular property manager because she returned my calls, (where other big names in the area did not), and had 15 years experience. I thought I needed help screening tenants, as I'm new to the business.
Property Manager did not advertise condo a few month backs so I advertised and find tenant, but property manager does not do lease so tenant is moving out after only three months. Do I ask to do lease or go with the way she likes to do things, since she has more experience?
Second question, she also likes to do all inclusive, stating that is the way renter like it in this area. ( I figured out, she also gets bigger fee, since its on pay collected). I do not like paying other peoples utilities though, but was told my property would sit on the market if I did not go all inclusive.
I have a year contract with this property manager, do I need different one, or just asked often about different tenant to encourage advertisement and advertise it again myself, and shop for different property manager until my contact ends?

So property manager did not find any tenant for you in a few months,
You decided to find one on your own and you did it!
Then property manager Essentially kick out said tenant cuss it was a lease and not All Inclusive,
Am new to investing but I feel like you did all the work for the property manager only to have it all go to waste
I think it’s time to find a new property manager, but also you got skills!!
You were able to find a tenant when ur property manager couldn’t so maybe you don’t need a property manager
