The Benefits of Regular Property Inspections

Regular property inspections are an important component of effective property management. For rental property owners and property anagers in Utah, understanding the benefits and procedures for conducting these inspections can lead to enhanced property value and improved tenant satisfaction. Here’s why and how to conduct regular inspections, and what Utah’s specific regulations mean for you. W hy D o R egulaR P RoPeRty I nsPectIons ? 1. Maintaining Property Value: Regular inspections help identify maintenance issues early before they escalate into costly repairs. By addressing problems early, rental housing operators can preserve the property’s value and avoid things snowballing into bigger issues. 2. Improving Tenant Satisfaction: Regular inspections demonstrate that the rental housing operator is attentive and responsive to the property’s condition. Tenants appreciate a well-maintained rental unit and prompt attention to issues, which can lead to better tenant retention and a better landlord-tenant relationship. 3. Reducing Maintenance Requests: With regular inspections, rental housing operators can address potential issues before tenants even report them. This preventative approach potentially minimizes the need for emergency repairs and allows for smoother scheduling with contractors. h oW to c onDuct I nsPectIons 1. Understand Utah’s Notice Requirements: In Utah, the statute requires rental housing operators to provide at least 24 hours’ notice before entering a rental unit unless modified by contract. However, if the contract modifies this requirement, rental housing operators can enter without 24 hours’ notice. This modification is designed to create a better tenant experience by allowing quicker responses to maintenance requests. 2. Communicate with Tenants: Clearly communicate the inspection schedule and procedures to your tenants. Make sure they understand the purpose of inspections and how it benefits them. This

5. Document Everything: Keep detailed records of inspections, including dates, findings, and any actions taken. This documentation is valuable for tracking property conditions and addressing any disputes that may arise. c onclusIon Regular property inspections are an investment in the long-term success of rental property management. By adhering to Utah’s legal requirements and lease terms, rental housing operators can effectively maintain their properties, ensure tenant satisfaction, and streamline maintenance processes. Clear communication and professional handling of inspection procedures will help create a positive rental experience for everyone involved.

transparency helps build trust and minimizes any potential friction. 3. Follow Legal and Contractual Guidelines: Adhere to the notice requirements specified in the lease agreement. If your lease allows for entry without advance notice, ensure tenants are aware of this provision. If your lease does not include such modifications, respect the 24-hour notice requirement to avoid legal complications. 4. Handle Pushback Professionally: If tenants express concerns about inspection access, remind them that restricting access to the rental housing operator, their employees, or service providers for repairs constitutes a lease violation. Explain that failure to comply with access requirements may result in a 3-day comply or vacate notice, as stipulated in the lease agreement.

Toddler’s Running Irks Downstairs Tenant B y H ank R ossi

Dear Landlord Hank: Our upstairs tenant has a young kid, around 2 years old,

who runs around on the wood floor at random hours of the evening and into the night. The older downstairs tenant

says this wakes her up. She has asked the upstairs tenant a couple of times about this issue, but the problem persists, and now she is calling us. We realize little kids run and play and understand it is loud on wood floors. Any suggestions on solving this problem? — Landlady Eileen Hi, Landlady Eileen: This is a touchy subject, as babies run and fall down and make noise.
