Any way you guys suggest to handle this?

I have actually been able to handle the property management of these larger MFs internally, saving me more costs. 

You may be able to convince your bank to give you a small construction loan with the mortgage to handle the rehab.  

Maybe the last few years.As far as single families, the contractors are charging insane amounts of $ because they can’t handle the work they have.I’m doing a renovation on my home in Tosa and it’s like buying my house a second time.Maybe others have a different opinion.

I have told the management company they will be reimbursing me for the fine by deducting their fees by the 50 and told them I need full communication on every matter as soon as something comes up.I don’t want to overreact by firing a company that I have just started working with (that has amazing reviews) and the rehab process has gone well until this matter.I also know how much of a pain this particular HOA can be.Any suggestions how to handle this issue?
