Every season brings different maintenance needs for your rental
property. The work to keep the property well maintained and tenants comfortable
seems to never end for property managers. Ft. Worth tenants can also have some
responsibilities in maintaining the home. A clear definition of tenant
responsibilities should be explained in the lease agreement, so that all the
needed jobs are taken care of by the right person. Here are some suggestions on
how fall maintenance can be divided between tenants and management, so your property
is proactively taken care of.
Landlord
Responsibilities
●
Service heating and air conditioning units.
●
Fertilize lawn and prune trees.
●
Clean out rain gutters and check for any roof repair
needs.
●
Have the chimney swept if your unit has a working fireplace.
Tenant Responsibilities
●
Inspect doors and windows to make sure they are closing
properly.
●
Change batteries in any security devices or detectors
in the home.
●
Get hoses and outdoor equipment cleaned up, winterized,
and put away.
●
Change filters on and vacuum under appliances and range
hoods.
●
Take care of designated landscape needs.
