Maintenance
Our philosophy is to help preserve and increase the value of your investment property.
We encourage preventative maintenance to eliminate the effects of deferred maintenance on
the value of your property. We negotiate better pricing due to the volume of properties that we
manage. We use sub-contractors who have demonstrated their ability and professionalism
through years of experience with us. They adhere to our standards- if they don't, they don't
work for us.
You will be kept informed of the maintenance needs of your property. Large projects and
other capital expenditures will only proceed with your consent. Copies of invoices will be
included with your monthly statement for standard maintenance items. We will sweat the
small stuff for you- you won't be bothered with minor issues. We will care for your property
as if it was our own.
