Property Maintenance
& Repairs
Maintaining a safe and inviting property is one of our most important jobs. Tenants submit requests 24/7. We coordinate licensed vendors, manage every work order, and keep your property protected — all without pulling you away from your life.
Tenant Safety and Property Protection First
Landlords and their agents carry a shared duty to provide safe housing. The court system holds both to a high standard regarding electrical problems, plumbing, HVAC systems, mold remediation, and more. To put it plainly: in the eyes of the court, the safety of people and habitability of your property warrant licensed, insured contractors. We manage every maintenance decision with that at the forefront.
At the same time, we work to protect your bottom line. Most routine items are handled efficiently by our vetted vendor network without requiring your input — keeping tenants happy, avoiding bigger repair bills down the road, and preserving your asset.
From Request to Resolution
Tenant Submits Request via Portal — 24/7
Tenants submit all maintenance requests through the secure Tenant Portal, available any time of day. The portal walks them through troubleshooting steps first — often resolving minor issues (GFCI resets, breaker trips, disposal resets) before a vendor is needed.
We Assess and Classify the Request
Our team reviews each request to determine urgency — routine, priority, or emergency. We may contact the tenant directly to gather more information before dispatching a vendor.
Licensed, Insured Vendor Dispatched
We dispatch a vetted, licensed, and insured vendor from our approved network. All trade work — electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and more — is handled by properly licensed professionals. No unvetted outside vendors are used while the property is occupied.
Owner Notified for Work Above the Authorization Limit
Our management agreement includes a pre-authorized limit for non-emergency repairs. Work above this threshold requires your approval before we proceed — we will contact you with the scope and recommendation.
Work Completed and Documented
Once complete, vendor invoices are paid and visible in your Owner Portal and included in your monthly statement. You have a full record of every dollar spent on your property.
After-Hours and Emergency Response
The pre-authorized limit does not apply to emergencies. When a tenant faces a burst pipe, sewer backup, HVAC failure in extreme heat or cold, storm damage, or a similar crisis — we respond immediately.
24/7 Emergency Access
Tenants are provided emergency contact instructions through the Tenant Portal. Our team is reachable for true emergencies outside business hours.
Immediate Dispatch
Emergency vendors — plumbers, HVAC technicians, locksmiths, restoration crews — are dispatched as quickly as possible based on the situation as it is reported.
Owner Notified Promptly
You are notified as soon as possible with a full summary of the emergency, the action taken, and the expected or actual cost.
Documentation Throughout
All emergency documentation will be available in your Owner Portal.
Why We Don't Use Owner-Supplied Contractors
While the property is occupied by a tenant, we do not allow owners or their personal contacts to perform interior or exterior maintenance — even with the best intentions. The liability risks are significant:
Liability
If an uninsured vendor of yours is injured on the job or causes injury at your rental property, you may face serious liability exposure not covered by a standard landlord policy.
Theft or Loss Claims
If a tenant's belonging goes missing or is misplaced during a visit by a non-insured vendor, you are exposed to a claim that our vetted vendors' insurance would otherwise cover.
Licensing Requirements
Texas requires licensing for electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and other trades. Using unlicensed workers on a rental property can void insurance coverage and create code violations.
Our Vendor Network
If you have a trusted contractor you'd like us to consider, they're welcome to apply to our vendor network — pending proof of licensing and insurance that meets our requirements.
No prices are disclosed on this page. Maintenance authorization limits and related fees are outlined in your Property Management Agreement. All vendor invoices are passed through at cost with full documentation.
Tenant Responsibilities vs. Owner Responsibilities
Tenants are responsible for routine yard maintenance: mowing, fertilizing, trimming, pest and weed control, and debris removal. However, some items remain the owner's long-term responsibility:
North Texas's extreme temperatures — severe drought in summer, hard freezes in winter — can end the life of shrubs, grass, and trees. When this occurs, we address it on a case-by-case basis to reach a fair and documented resolution between owner and tenant.
We Handle It. You Don't Have To.
