Youve just purchased your first rental property in a thriving and healthy neighborhood. You envision the perfect tenant; family of four with a dog, a cat, and two careers. You place your ad, you interview way too many couples and finally you decide on what you think will be that perfect tenant. You feel confident they will respect and help preserve the home, the land and the neighborhood. It doesnt take long before you are receiving message after message involving needed repairs and maintenance for the property; shortage in a plug, screen missing from bedroom window, water tank is leaking, and Mr. Tenant seems to have an attitude on the answering machine. As the landlord, property preservation has now become your top priority.

A good property preservation vendor should also do field inspection of the contracted property. This involves physical asset verification of the property and submission to the bank complete with inspection photos and report. The principal purpose of the inspection service is to determine whether or not the property is occupied. All information of the habitant like complete name, contact numbers, rental information (if any), property or agent manager information as well as the number of units should be collected. The existing condition of the property and potential factors that may affect the rating of the property should also be provided. After due inspection, the inspector is also expected to quote the approximate repairs required to make the property salable.

Depending on the reports of the inspection, vendors may sometimes have to handle eviction of the inhabitants. Eviction should be done with the collaboration of the Sheriffs department and all the personal belongings of the family should be removed from the premises and placed on the nearest public street. Municipal local codes should be strictly followed and preferably under the instructions and guidance of an Eviction lawyer. The eviction process should begin with a 3-30 day notice depending on the agreement existing between the habitants and the bank or financial institution involved. Once the time period lapses, the bank (through the vendors) can contest a case in court and seek eviction orders. After winning the case and receiving the eviction orders, a representative from the bank should meet the Marshall or Sheriff on the property and with the help of the vendor start the eviction process.

As any property owner can attest to, the damages that can be done to your property can add up very quickly, and well beyond what any one month security deposit will cover. With a complete inspection of the property before hand, your property preservation company can not only prepare accurate damage estimates for you, but in most cases, they are able to repair any damage for you and possibly restore your property to its original condition.

You properties are valuable and the costs of not protecting them far exceed the cost of making sure that your investments are protected. A qualified property preservation company can take over all of the work that goes into maintaining and protecting your property. Whether your needs are simple lawn maintenance, eviction support services, damage estimates or anything in between, professional property preservation companies can be there for you to protect your investment when you can not be.
