I am honestly still not certain about my lease. I have only leased one house before that one. It was between us and the homeowner. No property manager involved. This lease is again between us and the homeowner, but it has the realtor as the property manager. The lease I just signed is between us and a property management company. So what is the difference? Why was the realtor listed as our property manager? What is the point of having this? I truly do not understand the difference in the types of leases. I have been researching for days and cannot find out what responsibilities she had as property manager compared to if the lease was between tenant and property management company. I felt as though the broker washed his hands of the situation by letting her go and stating that they had no responsibility with the lease. If her name, listed as broker, was on the lease as property manager, wouldn't that in fact make her the property manager? Even though the lease was with the owner? The lie was that she listed herself as the broker, she is not. She is only a realtor. And the license number she listed belonged to a former broker that she had not worked for in over four years. she told me for six months that she was the only property manager and I could not speak with anyone else regarding the property. When I spoke with the ombudsman she informed me that the broker could assign a new manager to me. That it was the broker, not actually the realtor, that was my manager. When I questioned this is when it all got crazy. And I still don't understand who was actually the responsible party. I spoke to the owner for the first time when the broker sent us all an email stating that the lease was between owner and tenant and that the realtor no longer worked for his company. In my lease it has a box to check whether or not the owners realtor will act as property manager. This box was checked with yes. Then it listed the realtors name and wrong license number. I would love it if anyone could help me figure out what this type of lease would be called so I can research it. Thank you for your comments. I honestly can see why it looks like I just didn't pay my rent and expected no consequences. I honored my agreement by moving out by the specified date and I left the house spotless.
