Hi.
I am having a bit of a hassle with a townhouse in Queensland at the moment (I live in Adelaide) that somebody may be able to help me with.
To cut a long story short, the property managers (PM A) who were looking after the townhouse for me sold the property management part of their business to the newly selected body corporate appointed on-site managers (PM B). They had no experience of property management so I appointed another property manager (PM C), before they got a chance to do anything. A couple of weeks prior to this change, the lease expired and new tenants were found by PM A. The new tenants have advised PM C that they are paid up to the 5th April, but the money from the time since PM A sold their business to PM B and PM C took over (three weeks rent) has gone "missing". PM C have received no money from the tenants, as they made their payment to 5th ApPril the day before PM C took over. PM B said there was no money transferred from PM A to their account for the property. Confused? So am I!
My question - if my leaning on PM A does not make the money magically re-appear, what is the authority (is there one?) in Queensland that I should follow this up with?
Thanks,
Chris.
P.S. I switched PMs because I never had confidence in PM A. They were never open and honest with me and had too many other businesses on the go to take sufficient time to do a good job. They were affiliated with the builder and they "came with the property".
