Inspections

Inspections are conducted by either a certified or qualified inspector, who will produce a detailed inspection report. At no additional cost, a photographic record is made at each inspection.

When we move in and out, when roommates move out, when tenants move in, and annually thereafter, we conduct general interior/exterior inspections of the property.

We are always here to help. All inspections are standard to our service and are provided at no additional cost to you.

We test heating systems, air conditioners, smoke detectors, CO2 detectors, grout/caulk, glass and screens, and other things; and if problems are found to exist, we can quickly implement corrective action. This policy ensures that unnecessary repairs will be minimized or eliminated.

This makes the tax process much easier for you and us. We’ll also provide you with a 1099 and cashflow/expense report every January.
