There's no better than NOW to prepare your property for winter with our Multifamily Maintenance Checklist!

Get ahead of the game before your roof, plumbing, or electrical fails with preventive maintenance.

Bonus: if you ever plan to sell your investment property, you are in a strong position for a smooth transaction if you keep up with preventative maintenance.

Here are some recommendations for you.

Check for any flashing or areas of degraded shingles. Pay special attention to any openings that may attract bird or insect nests.

Sidewalks/driveways

Inspect for any cracks and fill with exterior caulking.

Windows/Doors :

Check exterior caulk and look for any signs of wood rot.

Interior:
