The tenants who live there now are probably already good tenants, and have common decency for their neighbors. When one should move out and someone else moves in, then hand them the new rules....and so forth. |

No charcoal barbeques on patios. This is actually against the law in many areas because it's a fire hazard.
No trash bags left on your patio or outside your door.
Christmas (or holiday) decorations must be down a week after the holiday ends.
No drying towels / laundry on patio bannisters.
No flags (team or otherwise) in windows.
No holes larger than a regular nail permitted in walls.
** These are some of the most common ones I've come across being a renter. |

You should first ask the renters what rules they would like.
Rules exist to enhance the life of you renters and protect your building.
If you change things too much folks will get mad so go slow. Let them guide you. Leave a survey in every mail box.
Then if you want to change something to protect the building, say not allowinging smoking in the common rooms, you can say you are doing it as a result of the flyer. The renters will never know if people really complained or not.
If you keep everyone "month to month" it is easier to raise rents and remove people, and it is also easer fot the tenants to leave if they want to move so you might want to keep that.
Generally, you want to have rules about how long a guest can stay, how many peolpe can live there, how many cars they can have, and what kind of pets you can allow.

The best advice I have is to have your real estate lawyer draw this up, there are some rules that have to comply with privacy laws pertaining to renters.. I assume your father does have a real estate lawyer since he purchased a 9-unit complex with tenants. He should be very careful not to do anything unlawful.. small things can be miscommunicated or misinformed and avoiding silly lawsuits from the beginning is the best way of protecting yourself.. work with a lawyer! Best Wishes. |

How much you buy that for? And in what city?
Anyway, the ones listed should be good for now. Also add in noise regulations for like loud music and such. |

Just consider what you do and don't want done and make up the rules accordingly. Be specific when they concern areas and times of the day or night (or periods of time). |

There should be a noise ordinance included somewhere in there. No loud music or noises after 10 pm.
You might be able to find an example of a lease online somewhere to give you better ideas. |

Think first about safety--so if you have a pool, for example, children at the least may NOT be left unattended there. It needs to have a fence and the gate needs to be locked and people need to be mindful a toddler doesn't get in there.
Ditto things about any parking areas--places folks can't park, no speeding, etc.
If there is BBQ equipment, etc. People need to be responsible about disposing safely of any waste and watching while cooking.
QUIET is important--probably NO loud music, no gathering outside partying or revving engines, etc. after 10 p.m. and before 6 a.m. at the very least--I'm sure most people work and kids need to be able to sleep enough to make it through a school day.
Good about no smoking in commons area and pet clean up (which are both safety/health issues as well).
If you have no leases with folks, you need to get one done properly and get folks signed on.
Typically parking is an issue--figure that out based on what your situation is.
Got a laundry room? May need to get a lock on the door and give tenants keys to limit who all can get in there as too many times you hear about assaults in a laundry room.
Good luck. |

No loud noise after 10pm or before 8am.
Something in reference to guests... like over night guests stay limitations. Otherwise they move all their friends in. I think we limited a guest stay to 3 days. After that they were considered a tenant and had to pay a daily fee, which was the same as pro-rated rent. It was so high that nobody wanted the guest to stay.
Parking. Are they assigned spots, etc. Are guests cars subject to be towed?
They can't paint or alter the structure without approval. Other wise they paint the walls purple.
Does it have a laundry room? If so you need rules for that.
Does it have a pool? If so you need rules for that also. |
