Nit-picky tenants
I have a question regarding knit picky tenants . I know you guys here are just the ones to answer this question.
I have some tenants who pay there rent every month on time or early. They are a family and they keep up the yard and do not cause any damage to the property. My problem is that they are wearing me out with text messages and phone calls on items that aren't a very big deal. They have never lived in a house, always an apartment.
They will call me if the fence looks like it is leaning, or if the sprinkler heads come loose or if the air flow on the a/c feels like it is more in one room and less in another or if a piece of weather stripping is loosening up on the back door.
I have two other rentals and never hear from my other tenants. Have any of you ever had to tell a tenant that their complaints are not that big a deal?
