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