Alternatively, he could hire a handyman, etc. to finish up what he was responsible for and he can pay them directly.Alternatively, since you both own it, you could take on 100% of the management and your brother pays you X% of the rent like a property manager.

If you just hire the cheapest or first PMC you speak with and it turns into a bad experience, please don’t assume ALL PMC’s are bad and start trashing PMC’s in general.

@Moshe Marciano it will be up to the title or escrow company to allow the closing to take place by putting funds in escrow until resolution.Often, they will want 125-150% of the amount in dispute to cover additional interest charges, etc.If this is allowed, you can then hire an attorney to sue the PMC for slander of title.

I hired a property management company to manage my rental property near Temecula, CA.

@Rob BlockVerifications should be done by the sponsor - they hire a third party. 99.9% chance none have done it because in the past they have not had too.

Do you prefer working with individual freelancers or established teams, and why?

If I had hired a pro, it would have been done in under two and the extra rent income would have paid for the pro.My biggest misconception was my limited belief that I couldn't buy multiple investments.
