If your management agreement requires authorization/approval before making large repairs or replacing appliances, demand reimbursement for that.I would send demand to the PM and give them the opportunity to resolve this within 15 days.

I'd love to hear from you if you or someone you have worked with had a similar experience and managed to resolve it.

I have asked for a manager several times, and literally still nothing gets resolved.

If you live in the duplex, you need to find a tenant who is compatible for you. 

The ideal prospect is overwhelmed and will to do just about anything to have someone else deal with a problem that either they cannot or are not willing to resolve themselves.

Adverse Possession is considered favorable to public policy in all 50 states and commonwealths.This is why it is addressed statutorily in each jurisdiction.The difficulty some of the posters are having difficulty with is the application of statutes and are confusing the use of AP as a tool to resolve a transfer of ownership matter with a lazy squatter who is ignorant of laws and takes no legally supportive steps beyond possession to acquire title.Adverse Possession is accomplished in too ways: 1) Color of Title, whereby a possessor is relying in good faith upon transfer document(s) which, upon its face, appears to pass legal record title but, for reasons not apparent, fails to do so; and,2) Claim of Right, whereby the possessor has taken possession of the affected property in and open and notorious way, hostile manner (without permission of record owner), exclusively, fenced it, improved it, paid all prior and current taxes for the prescribed period, etc. 

And yes you will pay tax on it one day but frankly I am resolved to the fact that we are turning into something worse then Europe in the tax department and we are  just going to have to live with that.

Well that is now resolved and if you're still interested, they have a time and location or message me and I can send it to you.Don't know why they double charged you. 

Hope to learn how you resolve this.

Ask her how you can help her resolve her housing situation.
