At EPA we offer strategic solutions specific to ever changing needs of your rental business.   We know what your future tenant wants, therefore instead of just putting money into standard upgrades we can design a plan for you that both includes necessary building updates and is directed on tenant wants!

Ask yourself with every upgrade – Will this benefit my rental business? Increase my tenant profile, reduce vacancy, increase property value…. EPA connects your capital requirements to your rental business goals and success!

Routine Maintenance

 

When was the last time you really visited your rental property? I mean really, with open eyes for what may be required? Are you depending on your tenants to let you know when there is a problem in the home?

It’s all about prevention…

Know what to look for:

  • – Property Exterior: Roofs, eavestrough, siding, windows / doors, foundation, fence, garage / shed
  •  
  • – Property Interior: plumbing / drains, sinks, toilets, shower / tub, smoke / co detectors, appliances, flooring
  •  
  • – Seasonally Specific: furnace filters, duct cleaning, outside water on/off, tree’s and shrubs

At EPA we do more than just fix the leaky faucet…. We inspect your property regularly, including routine seasonal maintenance requirements.   Our eyes are always open, whether we are going for a drain issue or renovation project we are always reviewing all property needs.

We care about your investment as if it were our own.  We understand that a big part of your rental business is maintaining your property asset.
