Neglected Spaces Navigating a Complete Property Turnover
Reading Time: 3 minutes

Walking into a property that requires a complete turnover is a common challenge property managers face. At Green Ocean Property Management, we understand the intricacies of this process all too well. In this blog, we’ll take you through a recent property turnover experience where we had to restore a unit after a resident left it in disarray due to unpaid rent and negligence.

 

The Challenge of a Complete Turnover

 

Our story begins with a property that had to bid farewell to a resident who failed to meet their financial obligations. This particular resident was a carryover from the previous landlord before the current owner acquired the building. With unpaid rent and a unit filled with abandoned belongings, the situation called for a comprehensive restoration process before a new tenant resided.

 

Property Inspection and Assessment

 

After the departure of the previous resident, our first step was to conduct a thorough inspection of the unit. Armed with our advanced Matterport 3D tour technology, we embarked on a detailed assessment to identify the extent of the damage and required repairs. Unfortunately, the unit exhibited substantial disrepair, with walls, floors, and fixtures visibly damaged.

The Restoration Process

 

The dedicated team at Green Ocean Property Management took swift action to bring the unit back to its former glory. In just under a week, we managed to accomplish a remarkable transformation. The entire unit required a fresh coat of paint, floor refinishing, and replacements for damaged doors and fixtures. The bathroom and kitchen were areas of concern, needing a complete overhaul to restore them to a habitable condition.

 

Safety and Security Measures

 

Ensuring the safety and security of future residents is of utmost importance to us. We promptly replaced the locks and keys to prevent any potential security breaches. Our team diligently addressed broken doors, missing smoke detectors, and damaged screen doors. We also took measures to remove any graffiti or spray paint left behind by the previous tenant.
