Recently purchased a property and at settlement property manager notified, however their office sent rent for next 3 weeks to outgoing vendor. As it was their admin. mistake I believe they should repatriate the money to me immediately and chase the vendor for return of the wrongly paid monies. This property is in WA. Am I correct? They say they are still chasing the vendor for return of monies overpaid and cannot credit me with it yet, however it is now two months later and I have told them to fix it - it is their internal accounting bungle not my problem. What is the next step - complaint to the Real Estate Inst. WA!!
