What to do if PM doesn't wire the rent?

[Cheza M.]

Hi all,

I've been having this issue w/ my former PM about wiring the rent that I'm still attempting to resolve . I emailed them a week ago about not receiving the previous month's rent but they told me that they already sent it. I've provided them a screenshot of all the transactions or wire transfers that I've received from their company which of course doesn't include the previous month because I didn't receive anything. They then told me that the person who handles their wires told them that there was a problem with my voided check that it had different numbers, so I then took a photo of my check and sent it over to them last week. I still haven't received any response from them, but I feel as though they're just making an excuses. I've recently changed my PM because of this issue. I always had to remind them about the rent every month because otherwise another month will pass without them transferring the funds. Even though it's only a month's worth of money, I'd like to know what would you guys do if you got a PM like this who doesn't give you your rent? I was thinking about hiring an attorney to handle this issue, but then again, lawyers aren't cheap. So are there any other options? What do you guys think?

You know in your heart this isn't normal/ethical behavior, right?
