I’m obviously getting hosed paying 8% of $3,000 / mo for the same service the land lord paying 8% of $500/mo is getting.

If not, there is a legal reason preventing them.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

@Bonnie Low - it's important to know what services you're paying for.

Many ServiceTechs cover this via a service call fee. 

It also covers your legal fees simply to defend a bogus lawsuit. 1 million is standard for each of my properties.

I would search the BP forums because your tax / legal related questions likely have already been asked.However, it doesn't hurt to still ask the forum what your questions are.

The feedback I've received from people is that the legal side tends to be excellent. 

Tenant gets their deposit back when their lease is officially/legally over.

You don't actually own the property until the sale is ratified by the courts as a foreclosure is a legal process though you are generally responsible for the property taxes for the property from the moment you win.
