Most site managers have had to handle disputes on occasion with residents or former residents over past-due rents or damaged property. If the money damages that you're seeking are relatively small, typically less than $5,000 (although the amount varies by state), and your preference is for a speedy, inexpensive hearing in a less-formal venue, then small claims court may be a viable option.
