The Property Manager shall take all reasonable precautions to protect confidential information.§ 1-6 The Property Manager shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that information on his or her website, or that of his or her Firm, is current and accurate.

I have gained much knowledge and confidence from this site and community already and am hoping to do so again.Do any of you investors/landlords who do business in places that have had or are at high risk for natural disasters take special financial precautions for yourself AFTER the disaster has passed?
