A Tenant Caused Problem That an Addendum Protects You From

Add a comment  | 

I’m talking about damage that installation of a Satellite Antennae can cause.

If you haven’t experienced this issue, let me inform you the law provides that you must allow a tenant to install a Satellite Dish or Antennae if he or she wants to.    

However, you as the Owner/Landlord have some rights.

You can dictate where they can put it and if the only area that you allow it to be installed does not give adequate reception, this is not your problem.

We recently had a tenant at one of our Esplanade condos here in Folsom  install a Dish on the exterior wall of the building which caused him to bear the costs of removal and the HOA fine.   He never got our permission to install it in the first place.

We had another tenant in a Single Family home here Folsom who decided to install a Satellite dish in the attic.    The contractor/technician that installed it damaged a brand new HVAC system to the tune of $1,500.   Guess who’s responsible for that…?

To eliminate any ambiguity as to who pays for the damage this issue might cause, we use the California Apartment Association’s  ”Satellite Dish/Antennae Addendum” in all of our leases.    Tenants “must” get our permission to install a Dish or Antennae.

Using this form will put the responsibility on the tenant to maintain your property and not let them off the hook if they damage it by the installation of a Dish.

Just one more reason to use a professional property management company…!

More Craigslist Scams – If You Are a Landlord or a Prospective Tenant – Beware…!

Comments Off  | 

Another “Craigslist” story I have to share… even have a copy of the “email exchange”

I got a call from a lady a few days ago inquiring about a home for rent at 1327 Copping here in Folsom.  It’s a 5 bedroom 3 full bath home, about 2500 sq ft and rents for $2,350.oo per month.   This lady said she had answered the ad that had a rent offered at around $1,100 per month.

I think most people can spot a “rental scam” but maybe some can’t, so here’s some things that you might want to employ if you are looking to rent a home somewhere.

  • If the price of the rental is so much lower than other homes you have been looking at..?  It might be a scam.
  • If the Owner/Landlord only communicates with you by email..? It might be a scam.
  • If the Owner/Landlord will only accept cash or a “wire” transfer..? It might be a scam.
  • If the Owner/Landlord is “out of the country”…?  It might be a scam.
  • If you “google” the property address and find more contact information besides the person you’ve been communicating with…?  It might be a scam.
  • If the Owner/Landlord meets you at the property and doesn’t ask for an application and is ready to give you the keys right then and there if you give him the money…? It might be a scam.
