Before your property inspection with High Mountain Property Management, it's crucial to prepare your space to meet our cleanliness and condition expectations. Make sure all areas of your property, including the living areas, kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms, and outdoor spaces are clean, well-maintained, and free from damage. To help you understand our standards, we've provided example images below. The 'Unacceptable' images illustrate conditions that do not meet our requirements, while the 'Okay' images represent acceptable conditions. Use these as a guide to ensure your property is ready for a successful inspection.
Your rental property is not just a place to reside; it's a responsibility. Regular property inspections ensure the upkeep of this responsibility, with the aim to maintain a safe and healthy living environment. However, poor property inspection results can lead to a series of consequences, ranging from warnings to fines and even eviction. While these outcomes may seem daunting, our ultimate aim is to support our tenants in maintaining their homes in the best possible condition.
The first consequence of a poor property inspection is usually a written warning, outlining the areas of concern that need attention. This stage is essentially a grace period, allowing you the chance to address and rectify the issues identified. The time frame for remedial action will depend on the nature and severity of the problem. We encourage swift action at this stage to avoid further consequences.
If the concerns pointed out in the initial warning are not addressed within the specified timeframe, fines may be imposed. The amount and frequency of these fines will be in accordance with the terms outlined in your lease agreement. Each occurrence of non-compliance after the warning stage could lead to a separate fine. This stage serves as a serious reminder of the importance of maintaining the property to the agreed standards.
Continued neglect of property maintenance responsibilities, despite warnings and fines, could lead to the most severe consequence - eviction. This is always a last resort and is only considered when all other efforts to rectify the situation have failed. Eviction would mean the termination of your lease agreement and the necessity to vacate the property within a timeframe stipulated by law.
While the consequences of a poor property inspection can indeed be serious, it's important to remember that we are here to help. We believe in open communication and mutual respect. We understand that sometimes, life happens, and we're here to support you through those times. Before any drastic action is taken, we aim to work with you to find a solution that benefits all parties involved. This could involve providing resources for repairs or offering a payment plan for accrued fines.
Our ultimate goal is to ensure that you have a comfortable, safe, and well-maintained place to call home. We believe in fostering strong landlord-tenant relationships based on mutual respect and understanding. Remember, maintaining your rental property isn't just about avoiding penalties; it's about creating a home that you can take pride in.
