Simply amazing!

I notified our local Marshal's Service regarding an "abandoned" vehicle and within a week it was towed away.In my county if you go through an eviction (and it is completed) I can simply call a towing company to take it away. 

With me working at a FinTech company and work with many devs, I can tell you that those numbers for outsourced devs and in-house devs are pretty spot on for the average.There's a lack of information in your request, but from you mentioned so far.

Please spare me whole I feel sorry for your lack of positivity BS. 

They are either being greedy with their fee or they simply did not lock up a good enough deal with enough spread for profit for you and their fee.Certainly a wholesaler wants to vet their buyer to ensure they have the capital and ability to close, but that should be done BEFORE the deal is struck with the buyer, not after.

Sometimes there was still some cash involved but with others I simply took over the note. 

That would be double dipping.I think the bigger concern would be the management company's lack of transparency in breaking down the revenue/expenses, and whether that means they are possibly rent shifting (offering lower nightly rates that they rev split with you and shifting the cost into various administrative fees that they keep 100% of).IE instead of$500nt x 4 nights = $2000, they take 16% of $2000 so you get $1680They might be doing something like (and this is typical of PM companies trying to squeeze out an extra buck)...$400nt x 4 nights = $1600+$400 in "administrative fees" = $2000.You get 84% of $1600 = $1344Same rent cost for the customer but now they are only paying you 84% on $1600 instead of $2000, and then pocketing the entire $400 "administrative fee".

Now I know that the county doesn't care about that, but is there anything I can do to get this reduced or at least an agreement to increase it less for the next few years until it gets to market rate (for lack of a better term)?

Is this simply something that exists in case of wrong doing in which after the fact, say fraud occurs, a case can be made that person a or b was not sufficiently competent in the matter before investing?

@Pavan Sandhu Thanks for calling me out lol, but I don't have building experience, hence the lack of guidance in my response.
