I own a duplex and have a tenant moving out. While performing a walkthrough I noticed the tenant that lives in the other side had cable installed (perfectly fine) however, the cable line is sticking straight out of the front of the property which looks terrible. Can I ask the tenant to have the cable company relocate the wire (moved it to another location) and who fixes the hole and the paint? Shouldn’t the cable company be responsible? 

I have no clue why the cable company would drill a hole into the front of my property like that. I forgot to take a picture of the cable. But I attached a pic of the front of my property. The black cable line is coming straight out of the front left side of the attic on top of the left garage, then leads around the garage and down to the cement then the left to the door area where there is another hole going into the house. I was always aware of the hole near the front door where cable line would enter. Just don’t know why they would have the line come straight out the front of my property.

Can anyone recommend sites where I can list my property so that insurance companies can find it to possibly rent to folks who’ve been displaced temporarily. 
Do I reach out to individual insurance companies to determine the sites they use? Any info is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

What sites did you list on so that insurance companies would find your property? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Hoping to get started with listing.

Hello All!!

I just purchased my first multi-unit property (duplex) in Sacramento, just near American River College. I'm a bit nervous about being a landlord and am looking for ways to ensure rent is paid by tenants. Specifically by leasing to tenants who are a part of programs that would help subsidize their rents (that way I can ensure payment).

I know there is section 8, but I'm looking for similar programs that subsidize rents for tenants so that I can list my property on their sites, or inform that my property is available. Also, I've been hearing that often insurance companies will pay to place tenants in properties after natural disasters.

Any websites or business and/or phone numbers where you think I should list my property for this type of thing? Any help is greatly appreciated!
