When you take on the difficult job of being a property manager, you aren’t just filling empty rental properties with clients. You’re also retaining these clients and are responsible for their health and safety. This is why we’re suggesting that you consider adding regular mold checks and mold removal to your maintenance list.
Mold is a commonplace aspect of residential restoration services, but you may not have thought of it on a larger scale. But with more and more companies such as Flood Pros USA offering commercial mold restoration, it’s perfect for property managers who have multiple rental properties that need mold removal.
So let’s look into why mold removal is a good idea:
#1. Tenants Will Be Happier
Happy tenants are the most important job of a property manager, this is what keeps the rent being paid on time, and trust us, mold doesn’t make for happy tenants. They know it’s harmful to their health and if there are young infants or the elderly, the health repercussions can be severe. Once you remove the mold, your tenants are always grateful.
#2. Less Damage To Properties Overall
Mold causes property damage, this is because it’s usually caused by water damage or excess moisture, which points to a larger issue. So, if you decide to leave the mold to keep growing, you’re more likely to see damage to your insulation, and drywall and this is on top of the actual cause of the mold and the damage that’s causing.
#3. Less Restoration Costs
Mold restoration is not an easy process, it takes time to get it done correctly, and in a way that prevents the mold from re-growing (which is why home DIY methods aren’t recommended). The more mold, the more expensive it gets, so prioritize getting the mold remediation done fast.
#4. Renovations Go Faster
If your job includes overseeing renovations in rental properties, you may as well add a mold test or mold removal into the plan. It might add a day or two of work into the timeframe, but it will save a lot of time and money down the line.
#5. More Tenants Stick Around
Good tenants are hard to come by, and property managers know this. Don’t drive your good tenants away with mold infestations, it’s one of the key reasons people leave a property. So, stay on top of maintaining a healthy home for them and they’re more likely to remain in the home for longer, making your life easier.
