So, you know how there’s laws in most states now pertaining to the health and safety of rental properties using smoke detectors, dealing with mold, about lead based paint, and how to handle tenants with bed bugs?
Several years ago, California passed a law, SB-721 which basically said rental property owners of certain sized properties had to have their decks and balconies inspected and remedied by 2025 and then within every 5 years thereafter.
This was in response to a deadly balcony collapse with several other instances across the state severely injuring people just hanging out to have a good time.
The point is, many other states have also experienced deaths and serious injuries from decks and balconies that collapsed since California has passed this law. Now, those states are now following suit to force landlords to repair dry rotted or damaged decks or balconies.
And this my friends is the subject of this week’s podcast.
You may think it doesn’t apply to you but at some point, it will.
It’s risk management at its best!
Listen to what we have to say about the law pertaining to deck and balcony inspections regardless of what state your rental property is in.
