Maintenance opportunities to serve the traditional homeowner?

[Tucker Olen]

Hi everyone,

Many of my friends were long-time renters turned first-time homebuyers and I watched as they went from living in homes that they had no maintenance/upgrade liability (because the landlord did it all) to now having to deal with all the headaches of home management.

I often find myself recommending systems that landlords use like budgeting for repairs and maintenance and setting aside monthly future capex expenditures for when they need a new roof or HVAC, etc. At times I go as far as helping them create an annual plan and find local contractors to take care of the routine maintenance work.

Has anyone ever run into this situation where a traditional homeowner could benefit from the way a landlord does things?

How in-depth do your processes get? I’ve seen single family home operators offer everything from landscaping and house cleaning for just a flat monthly fee.... that way the tenant has a hassle free experience.

I’d love to hear your thoughts, and maybe even chat with someone who operates a sophisticated property maintenance plan.
