Invoices from prop management company

Amy Alexander
Posted

Hello, everyone. I own several rental properties in other areas, but this is my first time buying a rental in Alabama. In other states, it’s common practice for a property management company to upload invoices for all substantial repairs to the owner portal online so that the owner has copies. My property management company in Huntsville doesn’t do this, so I’ve requested copies of particular invoices  and they’re telling me that this is not common practice in this state, and are resisting giving me any invoices whatsoever. is it actually normal to not receive any invoices, even upon request? Thank you in advance for your feedback!

There is no standard for a state. You can have ten different companies in the same city all doing different things.

I would hold the line with them. You paid for the work, so you have a right to see the invoice and what your money was spent on. In every state I'm aware of, the law requires them to provide copies of all documentation pertaining to the real estate transaction.

If they refuse, tell them you'll file a complaint with the Real Estate Commission: https://www.alabamarealtors.co...
