Tenant letting contractors in (or lack thereof)

[Mike Fiorese]

Recently I've run into a problem with my tenant not providing availability to let contractors in.  I have 2 repairs I have been trying to get done but have been unable to coordinate a time between the tenant and contractor. Is the tenant responsible for contacting and letting contractors in?

I have a clause in the lease stating that "Whenever possible the Landlord shall make arrangements for contracted workers to coordinate with the Tenant the time and date when workers may enter the Premises in order to accomplish repairs or services."

As a landlord I shouldn't be going to the house and meeting these contractors each time, right?

I live 50 miles from my rental so it is becoming a hassle to drive up there each time. Maybe it's time to hire a PM.
