Property Management Gouging on Maintenance/Replacement

AC condenser went out in a unit I closed on this month...

Property management co submitted bid to do the replacement for $5k in-house (for condenser and evaporator coil to bring up to 410A from R-22).  They disclose they may profit from these things, but I was blown away by the number.  Luckily I had just done such a replacement myself on another unit late last year.  Called that vendor and quoted $2800.

Anyone else have this type of experience.  I knew they'd have a margin for themselves on things of this nature, but this was much more than I expected!
