The Hidden Cost of Cheap Fixes: Protecting Your Property Value

When managing properties, it’s tempting to cut corners on repairs.  But, here’s the reality: cheap fixes may come with expensive consequences, and loss of long-term property value.  

The Illusion of Savings

Hiring the lowest bidder or choosing to DIY might seem smart, but consider this: If the fix performed doesn’t get to the root cause of the problem, it could cause even more of a headache long term.  Here are some examples:

  • Getting that shaky gate to stand up straight using a temporary solution could get it upright, but also lead to it falling on a tenant.

  • A DIY electrical job done wrong could make that outlet function again, and also lead to a fire long term.

  • A poorly patched leak could stop the water temporarily, and start leaking soon afterward, leading to mold (which - is really expensive to get rid of!)

Your Property is an Investment - Go for Value, Not the Least Expensive Option

Every repair decision results in, or reduces, your long term property value, and wealth.  Professional repairs ensure your home stays safe, functional, and appealing to the tenants that you actually want to live in your property.
