Mismanagement of tenant turnover
Hello folks,
First time posting on this forum. I have a frustrating situation with the turnover of my condo unit.
Previous tenants moved out and the end of February after living there for 6 years. There was some cosmetic work that needed to be done (paint, redo vinyl floors and replace carpet.) Got a reasonable quote from the property manager for the total price to replace all 3 items. Now after all of the work has been done, the bill has doubled due to miscommunication on the property manager's end. I confirmed the price with manager through email. There were 2 separate vendors used. One for painting and the other for replacing the vinyl and carpet. One vendor has been paid and the other has not.
I think I should only have to pay what was quoted to me and the rest should be paid by the property manager. Is this reasonable? Am I within my rights as the owner to expect this process to managed properly and the person involved with the management company be held accountable?
