Renting

Things to keep in mind:

1. The HOA property management company is different than an apartment property management company. Service for in-unit issues is primarily taken care of through the property owner or any rental unit property management company who may have been hired.

2. Seabreeze contact is mostly for owners unless there is an emergency issues. Please work with your property management company or unit owner to determine triage and responsibility first. 

3. Owners are responsible/liable for their tenants. The HOA Board will provide feedback to owners if tenants are violating CC&R rules. Owners are liable for any damages and fines that may occur due to tenants action, so it's important in your rental agreement to include the ability to pass on fines that they may incur that the HOA issues to you as the unit owner.

4. The HOA Board reserves the right to nullify your rental contract if there are CC&R violations. We will not put the community at risk if your tenant cannot follow the rules.

5. Stay on top of lease renewals - if you have a property management company, they need to stay on top of the lease renewal. Whenever a tenant loses access, it's probably because their key had an expiration date, meaning you need a new signed contract sent into SeaBreeze prior to this happening. Set your calendars. Don't be late. If a tenant is unable to get access, once a new contract is signed and sent to SeaBreeze, they will re-add the key to the existing tenant, and they should have building access restored. Note that the key removal and regeneration will mean their code is reset.

How to Rent Out Your Unit (Owners)
