When most people think of "winter property maintenance," they picture the harsh conditions of the Northeast—mountains of snow, ice dams, and frozen pipes. But real estate investors in the South and Midwest face their own unique set of seasonal challenges that demand attention and budget planning.

Even if you're a passive investor working with a property management team (like ours), understanding winter maintenance requirements helps preserve your investment and plan for the costs.

Ah, winter. There’s a nip in the air, frost on the ground and...well, a lot of hazards for your properties. Maybe you didn’t start gearing up for ol’ Jack Frost as early as you wanted to, but better late than never!
