Property Manager
Today while washing the cars we were approached by an odd looking gent inquiring our names. Turns out he's the new property manager. He handed us a written response from the land lady and her daughter addressing our letter.
Effective September 1st we will address any concerns/problems to the new manager. He's located about five miles from us and we mail the rent check to him as well. In the response the daughter acknowledged her mother's verbal agreement with us and stated that we should pay the new rent increase in full and separately submit our receipts for the painting.
It's a nice experience to feel heard but the majority of the tenants feel the owner's biding her time until she can safely evict someone. The manager will return tomorrow when everyone's available to sign the new month to month rental agreement.
