Introduction
Maintaining and enhancing the value of a rental property over the long term is crucial for property owners. At Appropos Residential, we take a proactive approach to property maintenance and management, ensuring your investment retains its value. In this case study, we highlight how our management services helped a client preserve and increase their property value.
Background
A client owns a four-bedroom single-family home in a desirable Houston suburb. Concerned about maintaining the long-term value of the property, especially with plans to sell in the future, the client wanted to ensure the property was well-maintained and that any potential issues were addressed promptly.
Our Approach
To maintain and enhance the value of the property, we implemented the following steps:
- Regular Inspections: We conducted regular property inspections to identify and address maintenance issues before they became major problems. These inspections covered both the interior and exterior of the property, ensuring it remained in top condition.
- Preventative Maintenance: Our team created a preventative maintenance schedule, including HVAC servicing, roof inspections, and plumbing checks. This proactive approach helped prevent costly repairs and extended the lifespan of the property’s systems.
- Quality Repairs: When repairs were needed, we used trusted contractors who provided high-quality work. This ensured that repairs were done correctly the first time, preserving the property’s integrity and value.
- Tenant Care: We educated tenants on proper property care, such as routine cleaning and basic maintenance tasks. By encouraging tenants to take pride in their living space, we helped maintain the property’s condition.
Results
With our proactive management and maintenance, the property remained in excellent condition. When the client decided to sell, the property was appraised at a value 15% higher than similar properties in the area that had not received the same level of care. The property was sold quickly and at a premium price, maximizing the return on investment.
Conclusion
Appropos Residential’s commitment to proactive property management helped maintain and increase the long-term value of this home. Our focus on regular inspections, preventative maintenance, and quality repairs ensures your property remains an attractive, valuable asset.
