Routine Maintenance Schedule advice
Hi there,
New to home owning and to rental property owning. What are routine (monthly, quarterly, yearly) maintenance stuff I should do to make sure my rental is in good working order.
I'm looking for preventative maintenance to make sure things last as long as they can. I believe the hot water heater should be flushed once a year but past that I don't really know.
Any advice as to what others do on a seasonal or yearly basis would be super helpful.
Thanks in advance!
