Dear [Resident Name],
Thanks for doing your part to keep [Property Name] a great place to live. A little preventive care goes a long way, so here are a few tips to help keep your community in top shape:
- Report issues right away. If you have major issues like flooding or broken AC units, please contact us immediately so we can help prevent further damage.
- Help prevent pests. Do your part to help prevent pests by sealing all food in airtight containers, sweeping and vacuuming regularly, and covering the garbage with a tight lid.
- Avoid putting food in the disposal. Keep your disposal clear by scraping food scraps into the garbage can as often as possible. Avoid putting grease, oil, egg shells, and vegetable peels in the disposal.
- Avoid water damage. If you notice any leaks or spills that could impact multiple units or common areas, clean up the liquid right away to avoid water damage.
- Report issues promptly. If you notice a mess in the lobby or damaged equipment in the fitness center, notify your community manager as soon as possible to help keep shared spaces clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone.
- Avoid excessive moisture. Excessive moisture can cause mildew and mold to develop. Keep things dry by running the bathroom fan every time you shower, and make sure to close windows when it rains or snows.
Thank you for all of your efforts to ensure [community name] continues to be a safe, clean, welcoming place to live!
Thanks again,
[Your Name]
