I Don’t Want Tenants Modifying Property (ring lights, tv on the w

[Patrick M.]

2 part question (Single family house)

1. Tenant wants a ring flood light installed which means removing existing flood/security light. Do you get your electrician/handyman involved to come and install and bill back to tenant?

2. Tenant installs ring flood light on their own without your approval therefore removing the existing flood light. Do you send out a notice to “repair”. Do you bill them at the end of their lease/move out to have handyman/electrician reinstall previous flood light?

I have security cameras and my tv on the wall. It’s fairly common these days. How do you keep up with typical society without letting tenants DIY?

Option 1.  Have them buy it and pay for your person to install it.  Let them know they will have to pay to have it properly removed and the old one installed again at the end of their lease...or it remains after they leave.
