Q: Where to file a complaint against property management company as a owner of the property in VA?
Hi, my lousy tenant vacated at the end of the lease term and I switched my property management company due to the bad experience with the previous one. The previous property management company has colluded with the tenant and wants to favor the tenant. My property repair work hasn't been done completely and the previous property management company not even releasing the property back to me. I want to know where to file a complaint against this unprofessional property management company as a property owner before going thru court. Does HUD help the property owner in any way? How effective is NARPM in this situation? I live in Texas and if I approach court can I attend court remotely or have to be present physically? Any other alternatives? Thanks much in advance.
A: The only way to bring a complaint against the property management company is to file a lawsuit in Court. I am unaware of anything that is done in your situation by HUD or NARPM. If you file a lawsuit in Virginia, you are subject to appearing in court to prosecute your case. There are no remote court appearances.
