 I have heard of people who have  used  a  property management letting agency- based in Marbella-   I am now hearing  that lots of their cleints are having major problems- they are  not paying rent collected, refusing to hand back keys to the owners, and removing items from peoples  property- Please  be careful who you hand your property over to- I'm sure there are many trustworthy companies out there but the Costa del  Sol seems to have many who are not-

I am looking for someone to manage my apartment in estapona any recommendations?

He holds rent collected from the tenants - holiday lets- and is saying that I owe him more than the income, for his services, cleaning and keyholding. He has not provided me with any   proof of purchases ,eg light bulbs etc, so I will not pay the extras. He does hold a considerable  amount of  income - (over2000 eur) which I argue he should have paid to me over the year.

Thanks for this information.  The problem is he has all the keys for the property , he had new ones cut because he said some had gone missing. so I'm not sure how we can get in to change locks? Do I need a lawyer to act on my behalf?

I understand that other owners are having similar problems, and theletting agency has suggested they will get a  debt recovery agency involved- anybody had similar experiences?

I am very new to letting my property so I find this site most helpful- thanks.
