@Larry Fried , Mehran K. , I have seen a LOT of West coast investors looking east for opportunities.  

Here in the states we produce medical consumables using plastic injection molding.

I may be a small fry here as I own only 17 rentals and manage them myself.  

How much would you care to bet that a hefty chunk of the millions he defrauded out of the banks and then the foreign investors is wrapped up in plastic and hidden in a joist bay somewhere in this town or down in Florida?

My AC evaporator luckily has an access panel that is easily removed and then a service plug in the side panel of the coil (plastic disc wedged into sheet metal) that I was able to remove, liberally spray down the coil on the 'incoming air side' with cleaner bought from lowes, and carefully spray some water onto the coils from the easily accessible 'outgoing air' side to back rinse after waiting the recommended time.

Cast iron DWW  piping hooked together with Fernco couplings instead of the old oakum-and-lead connection system is still being used for custom housing today because it's much quieter than plastic drainage piping and it doesn't collapse in place and leave air gaps in the event of a house fire.

@Marie Fries will do

You don't want to jump out of the frying pan into the fire.If this woman has "your best interest at heart" as you claim, she should be willing to absorb some of this loss on her side of the ledger, or at the very least work out some kind of credit moving forward.It's not fair to paint them all with the same broad brush, but it seems when it is not their own money being spent, many PMs seem quite cavalier about this sort of thing.
