As Director of 维护 for 德尔瓦尔地产 & 物业靠谱的足球外围竞猜网站推荐, I oversee all rental property maintenance. After the long cold winter months, Spring is a good time to advise owners on routine preventive maintenance for one of their largest investments, 他们的租赁财产. Here are some suggestions you may want to consider to save you money in the long run on your rental property.
Just as an annual physical is a good idea for your personal overall physical health, routine property inspections and maintenance is important for the up-keep of your investment property. Spring is a great time to check up on your roof, 管道, A/C, and other areas of the home to avoid costly future repairs and to keep your home in great shape throughout the year.
