Handyman/Maintenance Query for Out of Town Landlords

Aaron Linden
  • South Bend, IN
Posted

Hey BP,

I am going on vacation here in a couple of weeks and I do the maintenance on my rentals. My concern is that some emergency will happen or a maintenance request will be submitted that needs attention before I will return and I will not be able to handle it.

As a result, I have called numerous South Bend handyman services but none seem to offer 24h service or answer calls.

My question is, how did some of you smaller landlords handle this issue? Maybe some people who manage their own rentals out of state would be willing to chime in on finding a handyman or how you structured handling of your emergency maintenance calls.

Thank you all in advance!

Aaron
