What to look for during my walk throughs?
He everyone,
I currently did a walk-through of my properties I own in the midwest. For the most part, I know what to look for. For example, I have a rental with two military tenants. They're amazing. The house was in great shape. Nice furniture, maintained, clean, no signs or smells of cats, just pride of rentership. SOme of the other properties, were in just okay shape. Houses were dirty. No broken windows, or holes in walls, no damage overall, but just dirty. Sinks and bathrooms dirty, kitchen dirty, things of that sort. One tenant is a hoarder of shoes and hats. It's literally everywhere. Are these a red flag? No issues at all with paying rent, tenants responsive overall, no issues, no noise concerns. I guess what I want to know is what are the overall problems with a tenant that does not have an overall clean lifestyle. I'm just trying to make sure that i'm not missing any major details by ignoring the simple details. Do i kick tenant out risking picking another similar tenant. Do i make them pay for a detailed cleaning every quarter??
Thank you,
