In 2012 a broker company advertised property for sale in Detriot in USA and garanteed rental income of 18.5% ROI and also promise they have management company who will also manage the company .l saw the property and got into agreement with the company. Closed the deal in feb 2012 and was due to start collecting rental income. Things started going wrong. The rental income was not forth coming .I got in touch with the broker they both played me. I then got some rental incom for some time for 3months . Then the income stopped again.I got worried and wrote to the brokers director but he did notreply and the staff in the brokers company got nasty and they stopped returning my calls,email or any correspondent so did the property seller.
I was then told by other people that bought property from this same broker and on their website that the broker was aware of this problem from the same seller and same property management company that they stop making rental income after making a few rental income.
For the last 18 month or so l have notreceived any more rental income or communication fro both the broker , seller / management company.
Hope this clearifies things .
What do i do the broker in based in uk and the seller/ managenet company are based in Detriot / Canada.

Hello,
It seems the professional has left this conversation. This happens occasionally, and it's usually because the professional thinks that someone else might be a better match for your question. I've been working hard to find a new professional to assist you with your question, but sometimes finding the right professional can take a little longer than expected.
I wonder whether you're OK with continuing to wait for an answer. If you are, please let me know and I will continue my search. If not, feel free to let me know and I will cancel this question for you.
Thank you!
Nicola
