Does the Landlord have a right to enter?

LANDLORD RIGHT OF ENTRY

Does the Landlord, or his agent, have a right to enter the premises?

The law varies by state, but every state I am aware of allows a Landlord the right to enter their property. As a REALTOR and Property Manager in Cody, Wyoming, I am well versed in the state statutes and my lease agreement. What I love about my home town is that we still treat each other like responsible adults. As long as we can demonstrate sound reasoning in a court of law, life is easy.

On that note, I notified a tenant that I would be inspecting their rental property. The tenants had been there for nine months and I have every reason to believe they are taking good care of the house. However, I drove by the property in June and noticed the land is looking unkempt (they live on 5 acres). We have a danger of noxious weeds getting out of control and choking off good vegetation. We are in high desert and trees need a steady supply of water or they become more susceptible, as well. So I gave that I would visit the property five days later. When I showed up, they flipped their top and screamed (literally) that I was trespassing and had no right to be on the property.

Not wanting to make matters worse, I left. I went back to the office, wrote up a letter notifying them that their refusal to allow me on the property gives me reason to be suspicious. I told them I would inspect the property within the next 10 days and asked them to provide me with a couple days/times that would work for them. I told them I would inspect the entire premises this time, including the interior of the home, and that my reason for inspecting was to confirm they are upholding their responsibilities as outlined in the lease agreement. I quoted the specific clauses concerning my right to enter and their responsibilities in caring for the premises. I also made it clear that I would bring an escort and that the entire visit would be recorded with photographs, audio, or video to protect myself against additional erratic behavior or false allegations.

They responded back by claiming I had no right to be on the property. She included a quote that was supposedly "Wyoming law" but it turned out to be a quote from www.landlord.com and it was taken out of context. This web site is clear that Wyoming has no statute concerning the Landlord's "right to entry" but is very clear that the lack of a statute does not mean there is a lack of right. It goes on to say the Landlord has a right to inspect so long as he provides "reasonable" notice and the purpose of the visit. It goes on to provide tips about how often a Landlord should inspect! The tenant failed to read beyond the first paragraph.

They refuse to allow me on the property. They filed a complaint with the Sheriff's office, the Wyoming Real Estate Commission, my insurance carrier, and anyone else that would listen. No matter how many people explain to them that I have a right to enter the property, and no matter how many times we show them the lease, they still refuse to acknowledge my right. So our solution is to file for eviction because we have reason to believe they are not maintaining the property and we can't set foot on it to verify whether there is a problem or not.

This is just another example of why it is important to document everything, start to finish. At American West Realty and Management, we have a rock-solid lease agreement designed to protect the Landlord and their property. I liken it to a blow fish. Play nice and it is cute. Don't play nice and the spikes come out!

Let's make a deal!

It's one of the first questions I hear in both sales and property management: "What do you charge for commission?" This used to make me a little nervous because the wrong answer might have them laughing in my face or running out the door. Not too long into my career it started making me angry. After all, I don't see anyone asking other professionals to lower their fees! Now, it doesn't bother me nearly as much because I use it as an opportunity to educate the public about what I do and why I charge the fee that I use.

Let's take a look at an all-too-common scenario. I'm regularly contacted by Landlords looking for someone to manage their rental property. They've typically had a slew of bad tenants and are frustrated. No matter how hard they try, the tenants don't take care of the property, don't pay rent on time, and eventually leave the place trashed and owing the Landlord a month (or seven) of rent. So they tell me the problem and then ask me if I can help. Usually, before I can get the first sentence out of my mouth, they ask, "What do you charge?"

There are some that hear my answer and immediately ask if I can lower my commission. Here's how I would like to respond:

"Sure, I can lower my fee to match XYZ Realty as long as you don't mind me matching their services. I can start by accepting the first applicant to show up with cash in hand instead of screening them thoroughly. Then I'll put them under a verbal agreement, or maybe I'll use the lease agreement I found on the internet or borrowed from some other part-time Property Manager without the protections you and your home deserve. When they call with maintenance requests, I'll ignore them and allow your property to slowly decay. Of course, the more the property falls apart, the harder it will be to rent at market value or find quality tenants. Eventually, you'll be making hundreds of dollars less each month in rent income, your home will lose tens of thousands in value, you'll have higher turn-over and lower-quality. Is that worth saving $40 a month?"

OK, so I'm not so smug as to answer this way, but the thought crosses my mind on occassion. Instead, I focus on the services I provide and the value I bring to the Landlord. Here's just a sample list:

1. We have superior marketing due to our size and positive reputation within the community. We receive referrals from Landlords, tenants, other REALTORS, and other businesses.
2. I screen applicants thoroughly. Our high standards result in higher-quality tenants, fewer problems, higher rents, and happier Landlords.
3. Every form and document I use is custom built by me and approved by my attorney. I know them inside/out and they are designed to protect the Landlord, the rental property, and my company. I document everything.
4. Although I am very nice to tenants, I have the ability to lay the hammer down - fast and hard - to limit the damage to the Landlord and/or the property.
5. I am responsive to tenant  maintenance needs and expect owners to keep their rentals in above-average condition. This not only keeps tenants happy, it protects the Landlord's investment and enables me to keep rent rates up. If the Landlord ever sells the rental, it will be ready because I have provided regular maintenance instead of letting problems build up.
6. Because of my reputation and knowledge of the market, I am able to keep rent rates high. Most owners make more money AFTER hiring me than they did while working with another agent or handling the rental on their own.
7. I provide quality services. Tenants are willing to pay a little more for the peace of mind that comes from working with an honest Manager. They also tend to stay longer.
8. Although my primary responsibility is to the Landlord, I treat tenants with honesty, respect, and fairness. This is true whether they are renting a $400 studio apartment or a $2,000 home.

That's just a short list. As I explain my services, people start to understand the value I bring to the table and it's very rare that they try to negotiate my fees. I don't deal in sales transactions very often, but the same technique applies and I am prepared to give an answer if the question ever comes up.

What about you? How do you explain your fees? How do you stand up to someone when they try to talk you into taking a reduced commission?

This land is my land...this land is NOT your land!

I'm dealing with a difficult tenant that enjoys fighting me about everything. Their behavior is so odd that I can't help but conclude they are certifiably insane. That said, we ran into a problem yesterday that provided some fodder for my blog, so all is not lost!

Because of some problems we've had with them, the owner and I wanted to inspect their rental property to ensure it's being maintained. The owner called them directly (long story) and explained we would be arriving four days later. We invited them to meet with us so we could walk through together and discuss any problems found. We also wanted to talk to them about their behavior and whether we would be willing to renew the lease in a few months.

Two days after scheduling the meeting and walk-through, the tenants texted the owner and told him they would not be attending. No problem! They are so difficult to speak with that their absence was a welcome reprieve.

That morning, the owner decided to go to the property alone before meeting with me. When he pulled into the property, one of the tenants came off the porch and started screaming at him! She accused him of trespassing (on his own land?) and said he has no right to be on the property because they pay rent and are the sole legal occupants. Huh???

There's much more to it, but I'll focus on this one bit. Our lease agreement clearly states that we (Owner and Property Manager) have legal access to the property at any time during the term of their lease as long as we meet two conditions:

1. Provide a minimum of 24 hours notice
2. Provide the reason for our visit

We met both conditions by notifying the tenants four days in advance and by telling them that it was a routine inspection to ensure they are caring for the property after 8 months of occupancy. The same clause gives me permission to place a "For Rent" sign on the property during the last 30 days of any lease AND to schedule showings with 24 hours notice.

Our lease is clear and I reminded the tenants of their obligations. How will they respond? They will fight me. They will refuse to allow access or attempt to harass me. Which means I will be scheduling my next visit with a written notice that includes a statement that I will complete the inspection with a witness and a video camera!

What about you? Have you experienced a situation where a Landlord or Property Manager intrudes without proper notice? Do you have a tenant that refuses to let you inspect or handle routine maintenance? We'd love to hear your story!

8 Tips for Adding Curb Appeal and Value to Your Home

By: Pat Curry

Published: February 18, 2011

Here are eight ways to help your home put its best face forward.

Homes with high curb appeal command higher prices and take less time to sell. We’re not talking about replacing vinyl siding with redwood siding; we’re talking about maintenance and beautifying tasks you’d like to live with anyway.

The way your house looks from the street -- attractively landscaped and well-maintained -- can add thousands to its value and cut the time it takes to sell. But which projects pump up curb appeal most? Some spit and polish goes a long way, and so does a dose of color.

Tip #1: Wash your house’s face

Before you scrape any paint or plant more azaleas, wash the dirt, mildew, and general grunge off the outside of your house. REALTORS® say washing a house can add $10,000 to $15,000 to the sale prices of some houses.

A bucket of soapy water and a long-handled, soft-bristled brush can remove the dust and dirt that have splashed onto your wood, vinyl, metal, stucco, brick, and fiber cement siding. Power washers (rental: $75 per day) can reveal the true color of your flagstone walkways.

Wash your windows inside and out, swipe cobwebs from eaves, and hose down downspouts. Don’t forget your garage door, which was once bright white. If you can’t spray off the dirt, scrub it off with a solution of 1/2 cup trisodium phosphate—TSP, available at grocery stores, hardware stores, and home improvement centers—dissolved in 1 gallon of water.

You and a friend can make your house sparkle in a few weekends. A professional cleaning crew will cost hundreds--depending on the size of the house and number of windows--but will finish in a couple of days.

Tip #2: Freshen the paint job

The most commonly offered curb appeal advice from real estate pros and appraisers is to give the exterior of your home a good paint job. Buyers will instantly notice it, and appraisers will value it.
 
Of course, painting is an expensive and time-consuming facelift. To paint a 3,000-square-foot home, figure on spending $375 to $600 on paint; $1,500 to $3,000 on labor.

Your best bet is to match the paint you already have: Scrape off a little and ask your local paint store to match it. Resist the urge to make a statement with color. An appraiser will mark down the value of a house that’s painted a wildly different color from its competition.

Tip #3: Regard the roof

The condition of your roof is one of the first things buyers notice and appraisers assess. Missing, curled, or faded shingles add nothing to the look or value of your house. If your neighbors have maintained or replaced their roofs, yours will look especially shabby.

You can pay for roof repairs now, or pay for them later in a lower appraisal; appraisers will mark down the value by the cost of the repair. According to Remodeling Magazine’s 2014 Cost vs. Value Report, the average cost of a new asphalt shingle roof is about $19,000.

Some tired roofs look a lot better after you remove 25 years of dirt, moss, lichens, and algae. Don’t try cleaning your roof yourself: call a professional with the right tools and technique to clean it without damaging it. A 2,000 sq. ft. roof will take a day and $400 to $600 to clean professionally.

Tip #4: Neaten the yard

A well-manicured lawn, fresh mulch, and pruned shrubs boost the curb appeal of any home.

Replace overgrown bushes with leafy plants and colorful annuals. Surround bushes and trees with dark or reddish-brown bark mulch, which gives a rich feel to the yard. Put a crisp edge on garden beds, pull weeds and invasive vines, and plant a few geraniums in pots.

Green up your grass with lawn food and water. Cover bare spots with seeds and sod, get rid of crab grass, and mow regularly.

Tip #5: Add a color splash

Even a little color attracts and pleases the eye of would-be buyers.

Plant a tulip border in the fall that will bloom in the spring. Dig a flowerbed by the mailbox and plant some pansies. Place a brightly colored bench or Adirondack chair on the front porch. Get a little daring, and paint the front door red or blue.

These colorful touches won’t add to the value of our house: appraisers don’t give you extra points for a blue bench. But beautiful colors enhance curb appeal and help your house to sell faster.

Tip #6: Glam your mailbox

An upscale mailbox, architectural house numbers, or address plaques can make your house stand out.

High-style die cast aluminum mailboxes range from $100 to $350. You can pick up a handsome, hand-painted mailbox for about $50. If you don’t buy new, at least give your old mailbox a facelift with paint and new house numbers.

These days, your local home improvement center or hardware stores has an impressive selection of decorative numbers. Architectural address plaques, which you tack to the house or plant in the yard, typically range from $80 to $200. Brass house numbers range from $3 to $11 each, depending on size and style.

Tip #7: Fence yourself in

A picket fence with a garden gate to frame the yard is an asset. Not only does it add visual punch to your property, appraisers will give extra value to a fence in good condition, although it has more impact in a family-oriented neighborhood than an upscale retirement community.

Expect to pay $2,000 to $3,500 for a professionally installed gated picket fence 3 feet high and 100 feet long.

If you already have a fence, make sure it’s clean and in good condition. Replace broken gates and tighten loose latches.

Tip #8: Maintenance is a must

Nothing looks worse from the curb -- and sets off subconscious alarms -- like hanging gutters, missing bricks from the front steps, or peeling paint. Not only can these deferred maintenance items damage your home, but they can decrease the value of your house by 10%.

Here are some maintenance chores that will dramatically help the look of your house:

• Refasten sagging gutters.

• Repoint bricks that have lost their mortar.

• Reseal cracked asphalt.

• Straighten shutters.

• Replace cracked windows.

Document, document, document!

In the world of property management, it's all about documentation. As a property manager in Cody,

Wyoming, I need everything documented to protect me, the client, and the customer. I have detailed agreement between myself and the owner that spells out my responsibilities, what I charge, what services I provide, how much they want for rent, and much more. I also document everything with the tenant to ensure there is no confusion about their responsibilities or the services we provide.

A very important part of this documentation is the condition of the home. We document it with pictures and a detailed inspection before the tenant moves in. We do it again when they vacate so we can compare the two and see if the tenant is reponsible for any cleaning or repairs. Unfortunately, I learned the importance of documentation (again) this week.

An owner came to me with a small house to rent in Cody, Wyoming. I inspected it and it was a disgusting, filthy little bachelor bad. His only furniture was in the living room and included a mattress on a frame, an easy chair, and a TV dinner tray to hold his TV remote. Everything was coated in dust. Counters and cabinets had bacon grease and other food splattered on them. The large picture window in the living room had a crack from top to bottom. This was not going to be easy. Because it was in such bad shape, I took pictures but wasn't as detailed as I normally am. After all, why document it when my tenant will likely leave it in better condition?

I managed to find him a tenant pretty quickly, despite the condition and negatives. She cleaned the entire house, top to bottom. She even offered to paint the interior AND renovate his bathroom with new flooring, toilet, vanity and medicine cabinet. We worked everything out, she had a friend do the work, and the place looked better than it ever had before. The owner inspected it six months later himself and was amazed at how the place looked.

She moved out after 18 months and the owner moved back in. He said everything looked great and that she left it nice and clean. Two days later he comes back and tells me a window in the dining room is cracked and she is responsible. I checked my pictures and discovered that because I wasn't detailed enough, I only have one picture of the window and there is a bush covering half of it. UGH!

Without documentation of window condition prior to occupancy, I am stuck. Based on how the owner lived, I suspect it was broken before he left. But I can't prove it. The tenant is long gone, she was an excellent renter, and it wouldn't be worth the trouble of going after her for $200. So, being the honest Broker that I am, I will eat the cost of this window to keep the owner happy.

The moral of the story is to practice what I preach and DOCUMENT COMPLETELY every time. When I get lazy, I make mistakes and it comes back to bite me. This time it was a small bite. Next time it might take off an arm!

Marketing to a FSBO

I was recently contacted by a home owner attempting a for-sale-by-owner (FSBO) transaction. The interesting thing is, I had just been reading about how to market to FBSO sellers, so I had already rehearsed a small script in my head and was prepared for the conversation.

Naturally, the seller's first question was about our commission rate. I hate this question with a passion! Nobody goes to a surgeon and asks them what they charge; they look for the surgeon that is best suited to fix the problem. Anyway, this is (approximately) how I answered:

"Our commission is X% of the sales price, but there is much more to an agent than just a commission rate. What we really need to do is sit down with you to determine your goals. If I can understand where you are trying to go, I can demonstrate how I will help you get there. After I've shown you the value of my services, then we can talk commission. And keep in mind that I won't earn a dime unless my services enable you to meet your goals!"

Most FSBO sellers are listing on their own for one of three reasons:

1. They don't see the value of a REALTOR and their services.
2. They have had a bad experience with a REALTOR and don't trust the profession.
3. They believe they can save money by not paying REALTOR fees.

Our job is to educate the seller; getting a foot in the door is the first step. In this case, it worked and we were given the opportunity to sit down with the seller to discuss our services and how we can help them achieve their goals. By demonstrating our value, we knock the socks off the first two objections above. then, armed with a current market analysis and a proven track record of sales, we show how the seller can typically earn more by using a REALTOR, even after paying our commissions!

I have personally made the same mistake. I used an agent to purchase my home and then sold it FSBO just 18 months later due to a mandatory move with the military. I assumed there wasn't much equity after such a short time and I didn't want to spend it all on an agent. I had it under contract in just 24 hours, which tells me it was woefully under-priced. But I thought I knew it all...until it took over three months and a LOT of pain before the official closing and we nearly lost the deal a couple times. Looking back, I now understand that using an agent would have brought a higher asking price, fewer problems, and I would have probably walked away with about the same cash in pocket. Lesson learned!

If you are thinking of saving money by going it alone, please talk to one of our agents today and get the truth about the value of a REALTOR!

For Sale By Owner (FSBO) Statistics

Price reductions or goal adjustments?

We recently listed a home in Cody, Wyoming and the buyer wanted a slightly higher listing price than we recommended. It was a minor increase; not a problem. However, time went by without an offer.

We sat down with the owners to discuss the situation. They had moved out to facilitate short-notice showings and keep the home clean (multiple kids and pets). We could tell by their actions that they were interested in moving the home quickly because they had plans in another state.

So our question was, "What is your goal? Why are you really selling this home? Is it to make top dollar or to facilitate your move to another location? Is it more important to earn an additional $10,000 from the sale or to sell the home quickly?"

After a short discussion, they realized the true goal was to free themselves of this home so they could move to the next stage of life. They also wanted to try and settle before the school year starts, leaving us with an even tighter schedule.

I've learned that buyers and sellers tend to see things in terms of dollars and cents. When they want to sell, they can't see past our commission rate, as if a lower commission rate will automatically result in a bigger payout. This isn't necessarily true and it's our job to explain this to the client.

Instead of commission rates, we try to focus on goals. What is the seller really trying to achieve? How can I help them achieve this goal? Are they looking for a quick sale? Are they patient and testing the waters with the hopes of getting top dollar? Maybe they have no equity in their home but need something bigger and you can facilitate a trade. Once they understand how we can help them achieve their goals, then we can discuss commissions easier because they can understand what we bring to the table.

So what are your goals? How can we help you meet them? Whether you are buying, selling, renting or seeking property management services, we can help. Contact us today!

Expanding your real estate portfolio

REAL ESTATE as an investment has been on the increase this past decade as more and more people see the long-term benefits. Many of these investors entered the rental market by accident when they inherited a home from an aging relative. Others moved away and were unable to sell their home, so they opted to rent it for a while. After seeing the benefits of long-term rentals, and finding the security of a good Property Manager, they have decided to stick with it for the long haul.

But where do you go from here? If you are truly interested in rental property as a long-term investment, you need to understand the benefits of expansion. One method is to cash out the equity of one property, split it, and purchase two or more properties to increase your cash flow and rate of growth. Here's an example:

Dave inherited a modest single-family home when his mother passed away. The sales market was slow so he decided to rent it for a while. He found a Property Manager that quickly rented it out for $1,000 a month. Dave was pretty happy with the additional income but wondered if he couldn't be doing more. He approached the Property Manager to see about a more aggressive approach to building wealth. 

After developing a plan, the Property Manager sells Dave's home for $180,000. Dave splits the equity and purchases three apartment complexes with four units each. He now owns 12 apartments that rent for $550 a piece or a combined total of $6,600 monthly. His combined mortgage payment is $3,600 so he is making $3,000 a month instead of $1,000 a month with the single-family home. 

Not only does he bring more home but the value of his property is growing at three times the rate of the market (three properties instead of just one) and he is earning/growing based on the full value of the properties, not just the money he invested.

This is a very simplistic explanation. If you dig into the details, Dave could be getting a 60% return or better on his investment, which beats the stock market any day! If you are interested in growing your portfolio and building long-term wealth, we would love to sit down with you and show you how leveraging your money can generate a better return. We have a full-service real estate office with real estate agents ready to help you buy and sell real estate to expand your portfolio and our Property Management is ready to protect that investment.

The true cost of Property Management

Everyone has heard the stories of crooked, lazy, thieving Property Managers that rack up the bills while allowing tenants to run amok in your home. I've heard them myself, and even seen a few. Does that mean all managers are crooked and Property Management is a waste? Absolutely not!

Most of these horror stories include two responsible parties: the manager AND the owner. You see, the owner shares the responsibility of choosing a quality property manager. Most of them fail to do their research and simply grab the first manager with low fees. Well, you get what you pay for!

At American West Realty, we encourage you to do your research. Check out our web site for a description of our Property Management services and a detailed list of fees. We even provide you an article that spells out what to look for in a property manager so you can educate yourself and make an informed decision before hiring us - or anyone else. Once you are ready, interview several managers in the area to see what services they provide, the fees they charge, check references, etc. A little home work will go a long way towards ensuring the right manager.

The bottom line is that a good Property Manager will not cost you; they will increase your bottom line, protect your investment, and reduce your headaches so you can enjoy life. Visit our web site at www.americanwestrealty.com and let us help you on your path to financial freedom!

Cody Wyoming Rental Disaster

We've all heard the stories about bad tenants. They move in, stop paying rent, it takes forever to get them out and then you discover they have destroyed your home. Well, let me give you my horror story and then tell you how we've managed to keep it from happening again.

I bought my company in 2010 with an existing portfolio of about 115 rental units. Most of them are located in Cody and were easy to visit and even inspect. Others were located 30 miles away, including the subject home. I quickly learned the previous property manager took the unit over from another REALTOR but had never been inside the home. The tenants had lived there for about 11 years. They always paid rent on time, never bounced a check, and rarely had a complaint or maintenance issue. The manager assumed "No news is good news" and left them alone. No inspection. No drive-by. Nothing...for 11 years.

I discovered this just a few weeks after buying the company and put this home high on my priority list for a visit. It took a couple weeks and several phone calls to get a response from the tenants (first warning sign) but everyone continued to assure me they were good tenants. The wife finally called to apologize because she was buying a home and had been too busy to respond to my request for an inspection. She said they were moving out in two weeks (second warning sign) and asked if I could hold off on inspecting it until they were completely out. I agreed because it couldn't possibly make much difference after 11 years.

Two weeks went by and she still wasn't out (third warning sign). I was very busy and the home was 30 minutes away so I continued to hold. Another ten days went by before they called to tell me the home was "empty, clean, and ready to go!" They even thanked me for my patience. They really were nice!

Two days later I drove down to inspect and this is what I found: VIDEO

To make a long story short, paying rent on time doesn't mean they are taking care of the rental! In fact, some tenants pay on time and keep quiet to avoid discovery. Every appliance was beyond repair. The nearly new washer/dryer was missing, as was all the carpet downstairs. Holes in nearly every wall, some the size of a head. The carpet looked as though it hadn't been vacuumed in 11 years. Disgusting!

So the big question is, how do we keep this from happening? Inspections! Every home we manage is inspected every time we renew a lease. On a six-month lease, we'll inspect at the end of six months, whether the tenant is moving out or extending their lease. Same with a one-year lease. If a tenant is problematic with paying rent on time or if they have lease violations, we can also schedule an inspection. Because problems in one area often indicate problems in other areas.

The best part? Our new inspection software allows us to complete an inspection (with pictures and notes) and then publish it to our Owner Portal and Tenant Portal where they can view/print/download the complete report 24/7. We hold tenants accountable and owners hold us accountable. Everyone benefits!

If you want to learn more about inspections or any other aspect of Property Management, please contact us at (307) 587-9608 or email office@americanwestrealty.com and we'll be happy to talk. We promise to answer your questions without any high-pressure sales pitch!
