keeping a clean property, tenant reward programs
Hi BP.
Does anyone have any experience with tenant reward programs or incentivizing tenants for keeping properties clean and clutter free?
I recently bought a 6 unit-multi in a low-income area and acquired several pleasant enough, paying tenants who seem to have a problem with cleanliness. I understand my definition of clean may differ from others but this is really hindering my ability to upgrade the general appearance of the property. Tenants have so far been cooperative with moving and cleaning up things when I ask but it ends up being a problem again the following week.
A cleanliness clause is included in all my rental agreements but I need ideas on how to enforce it with these tenants that I've now adopted.
Any ideas?
