Move-out inspections with a landlord are dreaded more than just about anything on earth. Everyone wants their security deposit back and trust me, landlords would LOVE to give it all back to you. Tenants think that property managers want to keep their money, but honestly, our job is far easier if you move out and…
Because you GOTTA rent your home Many of our clients are in the land-lording business because they have to be, not because they desire to be. They are not typically like my investors-type clients who plan and save for out-of-pocket costs like expenses for marketing the home for rent, repairs, preventative maintenance and of course regular updating…
In my experience, when a homeowner lists their home for rent, they have a specific price in mind that they must (per them) achieve to cover their expenses, including their management fee. This is perfectly reasonable and a lofty goal that I aim to help you achieve with a quality listing and descriptions across the internet. …
Here’s to Being Mold-Free! Well…Kind of! The mold class lunch and learn was hosted by Emergency Restoration Services locally and there was no alcohol served at this event despite the festive photo of me and my home-girl Jill! It was extremely informative and we learned a lot. They provide free inspections for property management companies.…
What’s on my mind today is finding balance and peace at work and home. Finding time to relax has never been harder than it is right NOW. Everyone has a phone on them at all times, and “they” know that you do too! You are probably holding it RIGHT NOW aren’t you? Balance Finding balance…
Frustration can be experienced by tenants submitting work orders to their landlord or property manager. This is a well known fact. Landlords and property managers don’t act fast enough to make a repair, the repair isn’t good enough, and the vendor that went out was not skilled for the task, right? The folks that receive…
WTH! I recently had 2 client-owners comment that we have never recommended that they have their HVAC system cleaned. OMG!!! Are you kidding me? This was after water damage occurred at their home, due to their HVAC drain line clogging and overflowing the pan. It can resemble a busted plumbing pipe. I have preached…
How important are inspections while your home is tenant-occupied? Extremely. In 2016AD, I took over management of an exceptional number of properties for owners who were firing a property manager. I was flabbergasted by the limited services that other managers were getting by with for the same 10% fee that our office charges for 1st-rate…
As I watch the fall-out from a relatively mild storm this week (compared to others that have passed through town), I am always flabbergasted at how little tenants and owners know about their insurance coverage as well as how little coverage they have for routine occurrences!!! You could probably write a book on what is NOT covered on your policy Please…
