Hi,

I want to see what is the strategy landlord and property management is used for maintenance and repair requests.

Do you use something in the lease to let the tenant know what they are responsible for and if you do how use word it.

Thank you so much for any help and suggestion.

If a plunger doesn't work on the toilet, I call the plumber and the tenant pays for it. Light bulbs and detector batteries, the tenants need to change.

Definitely put in the lease that anything they break will be repaired by you and the tenant must pay for it.
