My house is located about 90-100ish km north of a property management place. The same firm has ALL the rentals in the next town up, which is about 120km north of their location. They also do basically all the rentals in this town too, which is 75km north of them.
Ring them up - "sorry, we don't do that town anymore, we don't have enough business there". 6 months ago they'd do it. Not now.
Noone else does that town - probably no point considering this one property manager has the entire market out this way cornered.
I just wanted figures on getting my house managed if I sold it, but apparently I *can't* get a property manager now, whereas I'd just chosen to self-manage before because they are not particularly cheap.
So does this mean my house is utterly unsellable to anyone who wants to keep the tenants but have it managed?!?! This sucks, as I have someone very interested in the house coming in a couple of days.
