Think About Your Long-term Plan and Goals As a residential roofing specialist, one of the biggest pieces of advice the Farha team has for rental property owners is to think about your long term plan and goals for the property before making any major decisions. If you plan to sell the property in the next two to five years, the decision you will make about your roof repair or replacement might be different than someone planning to hold onto the property for the next 10 to 20 years.
Choose Your Contractor Wisely Before signing on the dotted line, make sure you are carefully evaluating your residential roofing specialist options carefully. The Farha Roofing team has worked with far too many landlords who chose fly-by-night roofers or the cheapest bid for the job since the repair was, “Just for a rental property.”
Evaluate Low Maintenance Roofing Options Unfortunately for landlords everywhere, renters don’t always treat the property the way they would their own home. They make themselves comfortable of course, but regular property maintenance and routine cleanings often fall to the wayside. Because of this, the Farha Roofing team has found that low maintenance roofing options tend to be the best choice for rental properties. Low maintenance materials such as slate and shake or copper roofing are both great options to consider.
Consider the Neighborhood Whether you plan on selling the rental property in one year or twenty years, eventually you will likely want to sell it. The last thing you want to do is accidentally make your home unappealing to or too expensive for prospective buyers.
Determine Whether Other Repairs Are Needed If you are completing a roof replacement in between tenants, now is the ideal time to determine whether other repairs on the house are also needed before the new tenants move in. The last thing you want is for your tenants to move in and have a complaint a few days in to their new lease! Ask your residential roofing specialist if they have a recommendation for a local handyman who can help with odd jobs around the house to get the property back in tip-top shape.
