Nevada-Starting discussions for MC switch

The property manager works for the association, not the other way around, so you need to do what's necessary in order to get the association's tasks done and not necessarily worry about how they feel.

How about putting together a list (with examples) of your concerns and perhaps calling an executive session with the property manager where you can express your concerns, hear his/her side of the story and come up with a plan to resolve them? Give them 90 days or so and then evaluate their progress. If they want to keep your business, they'll respond accordingly. If not, have another meeting and tell them point blank if you don't see any changes in the next 60 days or so, you may have no choice, but to review the contract to see if you want to continue with them.

Getting other management company quotes is ok, but remember it really doesn't matter what other communities pay because you don't live there. Take a look at your own contract first to make sure you know what the company is supposed to do - if it comes to the point you have to look elsewhere, prepare a request for proposal and send it out. Ask for references and check them (you really don't need the current folk to do this for you), and should you choose someone else, put a transition plan in place, meet with their higher management and get things going. Good luck!

With Oscar's post count at zero, typically an indication that they resigned from the forum, I wonder if he is even getting the responses.
