@Aaron May

Just saw your two properties online . Beautiful! I was wondering how you went about finding the maintenance and cleaning folks in Orlando ? Also did you purchase new from Lennar or resale ? 

Hi al We stayed in champions gate resort recently  ( the villas 5 bed 5 bath) and we loved it . Anyone has experience with the champions gate properties ? Do they rent well with high occupancy rates ? What about  the hoa ? How much is it ? Is there a good management company there in Orlando that one could recommend ? @Aaron May thanks so much for great advice ! Looks like you own in Champioan Gate... is there a type of property in your opinion in there that works better ? 
thanks so much !

Yes am changing the lock. The tenant won’t agree to giving us one key . She says she won’t hand over the key to the agent who will mail it or us as she doesn’t feel ‘safe’ anyone else having it . Is that a reasonable request ?? 

While I appreciate the advice and did have some great learning on this issue , I have managed this tenant for 11 years and it all went fine. The tenant has given me a lot of issues since we asked them to leave as we want to sell the property. They have completely damaged the garage door and stil haven’t paid me or even told me the damage happened. They bring up issues every week now and have become unreasonable to the point. 
Thank you for your Frank advice . This is why I come to the forum .

definitely some learning here 

So the lock is more than 15 years old . We are out of state landlords so although I didn’t hear from her before that the lock was not working properly, the lock is old and could be jamming . 
it is our fault that we don’t have a key and there’s definitely learning there. We will include this in any lease we devise from now on on what happens if a key breaks .

Full disclosure , we are going to sell the property in 3 months as we have given tenant notice and they will vacate July end . So I guess , we should just change the locks and keep a key at this point and that way we will have a key?
mu only question is, is It reasonable to ask tenant to pay for change of lock as there was no indication of a malfunction prior to this ?
thank you all
