Everything the old manager holds for your rental moves to the new one: the lease, the deposit and its account, the keys, the records and the owner funds. A tenant's deposit is returned within 15 days after the tenancy ends, or claimed in writing within 30 days. Versaggi Management accepts an owner's current tenant, and to take over an occupied rental we need a copy of the lease, the tenants' contact information, the property's rules and regulations, the prior accounting ledger, and the keys, garage door opener and mailbox access.
I am unhappy with my current Tampa property manager. Who should I switch to?
Switch to the manager whose agreement lets you leave easily and whose reports you can read line by line.
Compare who does the repairs, what the monthly report shows, what every fee is and how many days it takes to end the agreement. Versaggi Management in Tampa uses its own skilled staff for most repairs, sends an itemized report for each property and offers a 30-day contract termination clause. Read your current agreement before you give notice to anyone, then request a proposal to compare.
Who can take over management of a rental that already has a tenant in Tampa?
Versaggi Management accepts takeovers of rentals that already have a tenant. Send us the address and the lease details and Russ will say how we would take it over.
To take over an occupied rental, Versaggi needs a copy of the lease, the tenants' contact information, the property's rules and regulations, the prior accounting ledger, and the keys, garage door opener and mailbox access. A takeover also moves the security deposit and the repair history to the new manager, and the tenant is told in writing who now receives notices. Use the request page and mention that the home is occupied, along with the number of units. We will reply with what we would do.
Can I leave my property manager before the contract ends?
That depends on the termination clause in your agreement, so read it first.
Management agreements set their own notice periods, and some charge for leaving, so ask for the clause and any exit charge before you sign. Ours is a 30-day contract termination clause. If you and a manager disagree about what an agreement allows, a Florida attorney can read the document and tell you where you stand.
What happens to my tenant's security deposit when I change managers?
The deposit and its records should move with the handover, and Florida sets the clocks for returning it.
Under section 83.49 of the Florida Statutes a deposit is returned within 15 days after the tenancy ends, or the owner sends written notice of a claim within 30 days. A late notice forfeits the right to claim against the deposit. Ask your current manager for the amount and where it is held, in writing. This is general information about what the law requires.
