A third friend of mine was looking on the web and saw some "deals" in Cape Coral. 

There is no charge to tenant, if they connect a bank account, and no charge to you for using the payment service.  

If someone comes by after that and books a 2star property expecting 5star service, that's their fault.

Hey Ryan,Sorry to hear that you had a negative experience.Designated dual agency is very common in NC and in most cases allows both buyer and seller to receive the highest level of service with no conflict of interest even though they are being represented by the same Firm.

I'd love to have an input on persons/companies who provide such services, from personal recomendations.

They have prepaid legal services 70/mo but I am not planning on renting anymore.

The property currently has a boiler servicing three units with radiators, which is in good condition.

Seriously considering but I need boots on the ground to service correctly.
