Welcome to the BiggerPockets community, you're definitely in the right place!

A PMC cannot risk a ticket or lawsuit because an owner takes too long to approve an emergency.You do have the right to be frustrated that you weren't informed about the repair as it was being done.Suggest you discuss with your PMC and see what they say. 

I'm right there with you in regards to going toe-to-toe with a licensed professional on such a large purchase.

You’ve come to the right place.

And I have a tenant locked in for a year at $1400 (they signed a year lease right before the house was put on the market in December).

But occasionally we have issues and tenants need to be asked to leave or just decide to disappear in the middle of winter and it sucks.The worst part is I find the quality of tenant interested or willing to move this time of year isn't the greatest either - often times there is a reason they have to move right now since most landlords don't like ending leases this time of year.Either lower your rent or just hang in there.

If they are asking for WAY what makes you think you'll be able to get the number to the right price?

Thanks for readingDavid I would not buy anything right now, I would wait a year or so and see where prices are headed.

@Unal Baris Kancoglu - if it is an easy switch out, probably $8k right now.  

I’m trying as hard as I can to make it right for anyone that had a poor experience.
