Top 3 Reasons to Keep Up with Building Maintenance
- Finding Small Things Before They Become Big Things. Just like you have frequent health and dental checkups or car maintenance, you want to make minor repairs along the way so they don't turn into major problems (Water damage, structural collapse…).
- Curb Appeal! A well-maintained building always has the best instant first impression. This even helps with your property values for potential buyers!
- Getting to Know Your Building. If you know what's going on with your building, you'll know where your reserve funds need to be spent. Your building might be performing better than expected so you don't need to put money into your scheduled upgrades! Keep up on your routine maintenance to get to know your building and understand what it really needs.
