i'm also going to have to see if i can try and contact some of these property owners directly and explain to them that this management layer isn't just wasting them money but is actually preventing them from bringing in reliable and quality tenants.

i've had problems here, but it's because the family that lives here are idiots. most property owners would side with the tenants that want to mitigate smoke damage and cat feces on their property, not the ones that want to maximize the damage to it. nothing makes sense, here.

the truth is that i've treated this place better than the family that owns it does - and i've only come into conflict when i've insisted that they treat it better than they do.
