Beware of PM's extraordinary charges and those who insist not to make direct contact with tenants. I am sure many are good and honest PM but to fabricate stories so they can charge you extra is totally unacceptable! Investigate! Then fire them ASAP if you proved them dishonest!

Excellent advice. Will adopt them. Initially sounded this but seller was unperturbed. Matt and Thomas, thank you very much for unselfishly sharing your expertise and giving advice. We'll keep them handy as we move forward with this project. Much appreciated really.
