NEW YEAR RESOLUTION

I will familiarize myself with the new photo-taking requirements under a new law going into effect in 2025. 

Photo documentation requirements are triggered in three events:

  • Before a tenant moves in

  • At the end of the tenancy

  • Before and after any necessary repairs or cleaning

Many of you have smartphones and are tech-savvy. If not, invest in a good digital camera and come up with a system to capture photos, easily organize them, and store them to be retrieved later.

We have always thought it was a good practice to take photos to document before-and-after conditions in the rental unit but with a new law being ushered into 2025, this is no longer optional.
