Help - - Winter Storm Coming!!!
Good morning fellow members!
I live in Indiana where the weathermen are predicting a blizzard (hopefully they are wrong as usual!). I was wanting to get your opinion on what a landlords responsibility is during a winter storm. All of my tenants are responsible for maintaining the yard and drive (mowing, snow removal etc). Some of my concerns/questions are as follows:
* Do I provide Ice Melt and Shovels?
* If they lose power, do I provide kerosene heaters or is that too much of a liability? If not, are there any suggestions on how to keep the pipes from freezing? We have already told them to make sure they leave a water drip and to keep the cabinets open.
I appreciate everyone's thoughts and suggestions!
Thanks in advance!!
Meghan :)
