RESPONSIBILITIES

As a new or existing tenant, you share in the responsibilities of caring for the home. The owner, the landlord and the tenant must all play an active part in making sure the home stays in good condition.

Below is a list of some of your obligations to help prevent any future misunderstandings. For a complete list of your obligations, please refer to your lease agreement.

Security Deposit
You paid a security deposit as a surety that the property will be maintained as per the lease agreement you signed (excepting for normal wear and tear). If you do not fulfill your lease obligations your security deposit will be used to reimburse the owner for their loss. If your deposit does not cover the costs, you will be billed for the balance.

Holland Properties has a fiduciary responsibility to the owner to make sure your obligations are met. Holland Properties may be required to use some or all of your security deposits for the following reasons:

• Not giving proper 30-day notice to move
• Breaking a lease
• Damage to property, fixtures, or landscaping
• Not leaving the property in the same condition as when you rented it (excepting for normal wear and tear)
• Carpet cleaning costs will be deducted from the security deposit upon move out, if applicable

A move out accounting and return of remaining deposit will be sent within 31 days as per Oregon Law.

Rent
Your rent is due on the 1st day of each month as per your rental agreement.  A late fee will be assessed if not received by the end of the day on the 5th of the month.  Holland Properties is not responsible for late mail service.  We strongly recommend that you use the online tenant portal and set up automatic payments so you are never late.  As a last resort we do have a 24-hour drop box next to the front door at our office.  The office is open by appointment only, if you need a receipt one can be emailed to you.

Periodic Property Reviews
Holland Properties has an agreement with the owner of the property to do periodic property reviews. We will issue a 24-hour notice for entry at least one day in advance. You are welcome to be there, but it is not possible to schedule a specific time. If you have changed the locks and we are unable to access the unit, you will be assessed a non-compliance fee. Any animals must be secured to allow safe access.
