If you buy a rental, please maintain it.
For all landlords out there, please maintain your rental houses! And, as mentioned by another poster, please factor in maintenance on a house you intend to rent out.
I live in a patio villa full time and it angers me greatly to see how negligent these landlords are. I have talked with distraught renters who can NOT get their landlord to maintain the property. Mowing grass once a month in the summer and never having the yard weeded is just unacceptable. For the biggest part, they provide no pest control. And all of this is to be performed per the contract. And then the landlord cries and complains if the renter moves out early.
I’m so angry to see my patio villa neighborhood be treated as though it’s a ghetto. So, if you purchase a home to rent out, please maintain it!
