Your property manager does most of the work.
Although we'll do the heavy lifting, as the rental investor, you must:
- Allow us to keep your rental property in good and safe condition;
- Permit us to follow building codes and housing regulations pertaining to fair housing, health and safety;
- Allow us to keep your reserve funds in proper order.
Item 3, means that we may need to replenish your contingency account from time to time to pay for repairs. Whenever possible we will do this from collected rents rather than collecting from you.
