With nearly 400 units under management, I've only had to show up in court twice in ten years.

So infilling an income gap via people who can disappear just as easily as appear seems short sighted to me. 

We are now suing them in TX small claims court as the security deposit was not enough to cover the 2 - 3 months rent after they trashed the house. 

Why wouldn’t you go to court?

@Preethi S. why would the PMC give you $4k, especially when they know, as an attorney has already told you, you are unlikely to win in court?

There was a recent webinar, bottom line, it looks like Darryl Heller sold off many of the ATMs, didn't pay the people who put the cash in them, didn't pay the stores that have them on site, isn't providing information to David Zook's team that the court has ordered and is racking up something like $50k+ a day for not doing so...it is a complete mess and seems like there are only a fraction of the ATMs that might still be producing money but the company hired by Zook to get their hands around all of this is running into many roadblocks because Heller's team isn't providing info. 

Get a quote from them or get the fire marshall and the electrician at to the home together and walkthrough what they want to do and have fire marshall review to see if that appears acceptable to them.

I'm thinking about just taking him to small claims court, can that be done? 

I see a lot of people buying class D rentals seeing it appears to cashflow then have one tenant stop paying and destroy the place to bankrupt themI do not want that to happen to you, so this is why I gave the options I did.

I love when the court is extra sassy in response/summary.
