Tips in dealing with tenant maintenance issues

 Fix issues beforehand - Even before the rental agreement gets signed, it pays as a landlord to have a move-in ready property. Tenants usually request for a space equipped with appliances that are up to standard. Thus, it is worth resolving issues like a broken air conditioning unit or a leaking faucet before the move-in so your relationship with the tenant starts on the right foot.    

Prevent major damages - No property is immune to minor damages, but you can find ways to prevent them from worsening. List down potential problems that could happen and the solutions for each one. For instance, sand storms in Dubai may cause air conditioners to malfunction. So, you should look for guards to prevent this type of damage even before renting out space. 

Conduct an inventory - Before the move-in date, conduct another inspection with the tenant to determine which are genuine complaints and which are due to negligence. More so, keep the tenant aware of problems that may recur after a certain period and the steps you've taken to rectify the situation.
