Most Commonly Found Problems

We also have all furnaces serviced in the Fall by a licensed heating contractor. You cannot be certain that the tenant will change batteries in the CO Detectors, change filters or oil the fan motor.

The problems most commonly found during maintenance checks are: (1) carpet stains, (2) writing on walls, (3) filthy kitchens, (4) illegal pets, (5)illegal residents, (6) illegal business operations, (7) major car repairing and (8) drug activity. If no survey is done, you may discover any of the above only at the end of the lease and only after the damage has been done.
