Keeping your property well-maintained, which is the role of Virginia Beach property management, can help ensure continual tenant occupancy. This means that your investment will be generating income continually. To have a well-maintained rental requires every aspect of the property to be in good working condition, providing utility and value for your tenants. It is difficult to forecast an emergency such as a pipe that suddenly bursts in the house. However, you can be prepared. How do you ensure that the plumbing and electrical in your rental are reliable? How do you keep the appliances in a state of good repair and how do you ensure that the building remains in a habitable condition? Are the grounds well kept?

The first step is to devise a preventative maintenance plan where a schedule is developed for both inspecting and servicing the appliances, equipment, building, and grounds. This plan should be shared with the tenants, so they can plan for these visits. Plan for emergency maintenance. Know that you can get a call at any time during the night or day.
