As the cooler weather approaches, it’s time to
perform some property maintenance to ensure your Phoenix investment property is as
prepared for the change in weather as you are. Your Phoenix property
management team has a few tips to help you through this seasonal maintenance.
Seasonal Maintenance
Tips from the Leading Phoenix Property Management Company
With summer winding down quickly, we recommend some basic services to protect the home and
prepare it for colder winter air:
1.
Avoid expensive repairs by cleaning or replace AC filters & remove
build up on fans.
2.
Step outside for a breath of fresh air … and enjoy the fall landscaping.
Fertilization, pruning, and any other lawn care services (such as sprinkler
line maintenance) should be completed to keep up the curb appeal of your home.
3.
Start thinking about any major pool maintenance that may need to be done
such as an acid wash or a re-plastering as these items need to be done away
from the summer heat.
4.
Got a fireplace? Time for a chimney sweep! Get it in clean working order
so tenants can be comfortable and your property safe all season long.
Phoenix Property Managers Are Not Alone in
Maintenance Responsibilities!
As a "do it yourself" Phoenix Landlord you do have obligations to
keep the property well-maintained; your tenants do as well. Here are a few
seasonal items they are responsible for:
1.
Take care of any safety hazards. Any items that pose an accident such as
bulky carpets or loose hand railings should be fixed.
2.
Check electrical sockets in use to ensure they are not warm to the
touch.
3.
Inspect fire extinguishers to confirm they are properly charged.
4.
Check any alarms throughout the home and install fresh batteries.
5.
Review household safety and emergency plans; locate gas and water shut
off valves.
6.
Clean/replace filters and vents as needed and vacuum under all
appliances.
7.
Change furnace filters on a monthly basis.
8.
Ensure all doors and windows shut tightly.
9.
Clean all drains and traps to ensure proper drainage.
10.
Tidy up outside by storing hoses and similar items.
As a Phoenix property management company, we work
with tenants to get your investment property ready for any season. It is a
priority to help you keep your home and tenants protected
by performing seasonal maintenance duties. If you are not up to performing
