Leak on the Ceiling from Rental Property Best decision?

[Steve Lee]

Hey BP,

Have a property in Texas. More of a accidental land-lord due to a out of town job move. I had just brought the property earlier in the year so I could not sell it before I moved.

It has been 2 months but with the recent hail damage the tenant is mentioning that there are leaks in the roof.

Currently I am at a loss on how to move forward. Need some advice. Do I just put the claim in to insurance? Do I get a contractor out there? Was hoping not to have problems this early on but guess that is life.

Thanks,

-Steve
