Think of it from the PM's perspective: if you were them, would you deal with the significant headaches of a C or D area (non-paying tenants, trashed properties, crime, police calls, etc.) for a 10% cut of a single property (probably just a few hundred bucks a month) ...I wouldn't.To make matters worse, the property isn't appreciating (because it's in a low appreciation market, or even a depreciating market), and the tenant pool is primarily made up of people with bad credit, low/no income, and a history of property damage at the previous places they've rented.

Should I call the police and tell them the situation? 

I'd like to see VRBO have the same polish as Airbnb.I guess we'll find out if these changes were worth it.

I encourage all others who have been swindled or have had similar experiences to share them too and to submit complaints to the Better Business Bureau, Department of Consumer Affairs, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, State Board of Accountancy, Federal Trade Commission, Police Department’s Financial Crime Unit, and the District Attorney.

But get title insurance...through a local company, not their company.The police do not come when you close. 

Sand, clean, seal and polish.

We'd just installed new carpet and found out a week or two later the tenant had spilled fingernail polish on it and left it to harden.

After a few months he must of told his friend that the house was empty (and I was out of state) and gave then the key he stole.Apparently they've been there for 3 months or so and I was able to get her phone number and was trying to be nice and give her the chance to leave willingly before involving police/court.

Have had police called multiple times for them with reports and yes I'm very upset cause I was way too nice and they lied and took advantage of the situation.
