Regarding your Greensboro rental home, curb appeal is vital to thankfully keeping it occupied and profitable. Renters prefer a well-maintained and attractive home—one in which they can be at ease and take pride. A clean and maintained property is a major factor to a successful rental experience, which is why regular window cleaning is such a principal component of any property management plan.
Clean windows offer several benefits for property owners and tenants alike. The most glaring benefit is bringing about a fantastic first impression of the house. First impressions can elicit an actual difference in attracting excellent renters. Small smudges and dirt may be like a no big deal, but oftentimes potential tenants may draw a parallel for dirty windows with an owner who cuts corners on property maintenance, adversely affecting their decision to rent the property.
Benefits of Window Cleaning
Regular window cleaning prolongs the life of the windows themselves. Same as with all of a property’s other elements, windows must be cleaned regularly. Acid rain, hard water, and oxidation are all causes that can destroy windowpanes. Typical but regular cleaning can greatly help to keep environmental contaminants at bay and your windows sparkling for several years.
Why Professional Window Cleaning is Safer and More Effective
Industry experts firmly advise cleaning residential windows once or twice a year. But you have to know, counting on your tenants to accomplish this for you is not the right step. Tenants may carelessly neglect to use the proper cleaning tools and materials, thereafter damaging the windows further. Or they may cause injury to themselves as they endeavor to clean second story windows.
Falls that involve ladders are one of the leading causes of serious household injuries. This guide to ladder safety from the United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) defines over a dozen safety guidelines for ladder use, most of which your tenant may not take into consideration or follow. The increased liability of tenants using ladders to perform property maintenance tasks is not a wise nor even logical management practice.
