Yes, any ongoing maintenance required to keep the property in habitable condition will of course be required. In addition, there are two items maintenance items that will be conducted at each property as a standard practice:
- HVAC System Check: As a standard annual item, heating and air conditioning equipment, no matter what kind you have, will be inspected, cleaned, and serviced at least once a year by a license professional. Such checks are necessary for both resident safety and to assure efficient operation of the system itself. Not getting systems checked, in addition to creating resident safety concerns, may lead to stress on the system itself and decrease in its lifespan. One of our preferred HVAC conducts the annual inspection to include the following:
- Inspect the thermostat, wiring, and burners/heat strips
- Clean the blower compartment
- Change Air Filters (two times per year)
- Check the heat exchanger/ignition
- Check the cooling system and freon levels if A/C is installed at the property
- Rekey and Smoke/Carbon Detector Testing: Also, as a standard item, a rekey and smoke/carbon detector testing will be conducted at each property after a resident move-out and turnover.
