Inspections should cover the entire property and be conducted quarterly or biannually. Additionally, tenants should have a clear process for reporting maintenance issues to ensure prompt attention.

SEASONAL MAINTENANCE
Each season comes with a certain set of
maintenance needs. In the spring, look
for signs of damage caused by winter
