As we are landlords who promote professionalism and a business mindset, this episode is a prime example of how to embrace these outlooks.
Too many landlords take the hands-off approach, thinking their tenants don’t want to be bothered. That the less contact they have with the tenant, the better. Maybe they won’t move out, maybe they won’t ask us for any improvements, maybe they won’t complain. Guess what? By avoiding the tenants, you’re ignoring your biggest asset, your rental property.
Just like your personal home or your vehicle, rental properties need periodic maintenance. It needs to be checked on to make sure your tenants are caring for it as intended in the lease agreement. You need to make your presence known to your tenants so they will feel like you care about your investment and, in turn, them as your “customers”.
It has been statistically shown that rental properties that go without maintenance, have a higher turnover than those with active, attentive landlords.
