Using a VA for maintenance requests - legal?
I'm self-managing a few of my investments in the past. I'd like to have a VA help with some of these basic things:
- Be the first point of contact for any maintenance requests
- Anything under $500 - call our handyman and get it done
- Anything above $500 - loop me in
She would NOT partake in any of the leasing / touring of the property. Literally just maintenance requests and making sure the autopay comes in.
That said, is it legal to have a VA do these activities without a license? She is on 1099, not W-2.
If it matters - our properties are in Utah and Texas.
