What is in your repairs and alterations clause?
Can you paste your repairs and alterations clause here...
I need to write into the contract to protect myself from future tenants hiring inspectors or professionals to do stupid tests.
How should I beef up my current repairs/alterations clause ....
- REPAIRS AND ALTERATIONS: RESIDENT shall make a WRITTEN REQUEST to OWNER/Agent regarding any repairs, decorations or alterations contemplated. Except as provided by law, no repairs, decorating or alterations shall be done by RESIDENT without OWNER/Agent’s prior written consent. RESIDENT may change window coverings, provided that RESIDENT returns original window coverings to OWNER/Agent. RESIDENT MAY NOT PAINT OR WALLPAPER any part of interior or exterior of the house and premises. RESIDENT may not change locks without providing a key to OWNER/Agent. RESIDENT may not make any alterations to cable or telephone inside wiring (such as may occur when changing telecommunications providers or adding phone lines) without prior written consent of the OWNER/Agent.

RESIDENT shall hold OWNER/Agent harmless and indemnify OWNER/Agent as to any mechanic’s lien recordation or proceeding caused by RESIDENT.
