Tenant Turnover Protection Legal Question
A tenant my property manager placed and who then moved out without notice two months into the lease caused damage and general dirt all over the apartment. The below paragraph is in my agreement with the PM and sounds like it is their responsibility to pay for the damages as they were the ones who placed the tenant. Any advice/guidance would be appreciated:
-
Tenant turnovers will be handled by PM COMPANY as they see fit to minimize tenant turnover time. All minimal repairs and cleaning will be addressed without exception without owner approval. All work covered by tenant turnover protection for PM COMPANY placed tenants will not require any owner approval prior to completion. Tenant turnover protection can change at any time, but is currently included for an PM COMPANY placed tenant up to $2500 in repairs. For all renovations needed on properties, owners will be notified per their repair/renovation settings. Tenant turnover protection is waived if the owner is no longer managing with PM COMPANY at time of tenants move-out.
