I  tried several time to request application to get my money back but never got it. 

The city made me conform to their exact permit application process which was burdensome and frustrating.

However, without significant updates, they’re likely to reject your application outright without leniency. 

So accepting and approving multiple applicants is the norm?

My issue is, it's been almost 3 months and I haven't be able to get good tenant applicants.

Challenge is where is their motivation to properly screen applicants and get rid of nonpayers?

Not sure how many PMCs you've had bad experiences with, but we'll take exception to:"Then do a thorough research on tenant applicants (note: leaving this to a PM may be hazardous to your financial health)".BP seems to have more threads about screening mistakes by DIY landlords as opposed to PMCs.Now, if you'd have mentioned Maintenance, you'd get no argument from me:) Even the PMC industry acknowledges maintenance as one of the biggest challenges.Rereading my post, I kinda see how I sounded negative toward PMs.  

But, with a strong application process, we don’t have many evictions.  

@Joe Norman Those were the big 3 I figured would help the most, but I think wasn't sure how much actual applicability they had as a business owner/investor.

Many of our investors/wholesalers team up to skip trace, door knock, drive for dollars that can be capture in the application.
