With the rise of AI, more companies are adopting automated systems to handle maintenance requests.What system do they have in place to practice preventative maintenance?

And what's your go-to lease clause to prevent it?

Example:  Which part is preventing you from finding the tenant? 

And most importantly, where property management isn’t about how fast we react, but how rarely we need to react.Because when processes are proactive, preventive, strategic, and logical, you don’t measure success by how quickly you put out fires—you measure it by how few fires ever start.That’s the difference between management that keeps you worried and management that lets you finally breathe.👉 Owners, what would peace of mind in property management look like for you?

The biggest thing that’s going to prevent you from scaling are the things you can’t control.

Spending the time and taking the time and energy upfront to screen really well, meet and interview the tenants is absolutely a key to having the best chance as a "smooth" property in my experience.as a side note on "issues or problems" in general....I feel like the problems we think we will have as landlords or owners never seem to be the actual issues that come up, you can plan and prep and preventative maintenance to the cows come home, but something will come up!  

I even had one trigger just from heat (not humidity) in a vacant second floor unit in the middle of the summer.My solution has been to ensure those conditions are not created in these spaces, whether than means opening a window in the basement and using a box fan in the summer, or cracking open leeward windows on the second floor (in a manner to prevent water intrusion during heavy rain) on opposite ends of the building to create a bit of airflow in the summer.Lastly, I'll throw this out there in the category of "trust, but verify" - are you absolutely sure this is not tenant caused? 

You’ll have to ask around.FWIW, on 1-4 unit properties (only), a lender can’t prevent you from taking out a second position loan after the loan is made.

"Preventive maintenance is your cheapest insurance" - love this!!

All that to say - have a good story that explains why you had the claims and what you have done / are doing to prevent the same claims from occurring again.
