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