'How to be a good building manager and caretaker.'
Sometimes you must be patient with all your tenants. Especially when it's a problem building. I'll explain, Problems like untidy Apartments, Damaged to the Apartments. Rowdy tenants and party people. Problems with past tenants. Problems with pets. What to do in these situations. If you were a building owner what can you do? Number one hire someone with experience. Be knowledgeable in your paperwork. Write everything down take a lot of photos. Make sure everything is documented, you might have to take your tenants to court. Court is explained in one way, every part of the country is different, in states or provinces. For instance in Manitoba Canada you have the (RTB) Residential Tenancies Branch. These forms of branches help the owner and tenant. Only in the worst cases do you need a lawyer. Tenants are allowed to appeal up to three times. The tenant does not even have to show up to the court. This makes it difficult for the owners of houses and apartments. Always do a background check on all tenants moving into your place. Advertise your apartments on website. For instance in Canada you can use Kijiji for free. This gives you multiple applicants coming to your apartment. Then it's easier to choose. But how do you pick a tenant? For instance Mr. Johnson live at 225 Main Street. You call that phone number that he wrote down as his landlord. Conversation should go like this. Making a reference check for Mr. Johnson, he's renting on 344 Main Street. Do you not see it? I gave them a wrong address. If he corrects you and gives you the right address. That reference is an okay reference. If you have one tenant to 100 tenants. If a tenant does not pay the full rent by the end of the day that it is due, a landlord can ask the tenant to pay the money they owe or move out of the rental unit. The landlord must give the tenant a notice in writing, in a form called a Notice to End a Tenancy Early for Nonpayment of Rent.

Building managers and caretakers are underpaid, I'll explain
I get a free two bedroom apartment. Plus $700 per month, sometimes I do make extra money. Like when I paint an apartment put in new flooring. But even that is underpaid. Thank you for reading my blog. Leave a comment.
