How We Handle Maintenance
Overview
We manage all aspects of property maintenance, from routine fixes to major repairs. Our role is to keep your property in good condition, protect long-term value, and minimize tenant turnover.
Why It Matters
Well-maintained homes rent faster, keep tenants longer, and protect your bottom line. Owners who underfund maintenance often face bigger bills later, plus higher vacancy and tenant complaints.
What Counts as Routine vs. Major Repairs
Routine Maintenance (covered from your reserve):
Minor plumbing fixes (leaky faucet, running toilet)
Light electrical issues (outlets, switches, fixtures)
Appliance repairs or replacements
General wear-and-tear items (caulking, paint touch-ups, blinds)
Landscaping, pest control, trash removal
Major Repairs (require owner approval if above an agreed amount):
Roof repair or replacement
HVAC system replacement
Foundation, plumbing, or electrical system upgrades
Capital improvements (kitchens, flooring, siding)
Our Approach
Tenants report issues through DoorLoop (with photos/videos).
We triage: routine repairs are scheduled right away; major items are flagged for your approval.
We use trusted vendors and negotiate fair pricing.
You’ll see costs clearly on your monthly statement.
