Renting

Things to keep in mind:

1. This is an HOA, not an apartment. Service for in-unit issues is primarily taken care of through you, the owner, or any property management company you may have hired. 

2. Renters can not contact Seabreeze directly and request must be submitted by owner of the unit.

3. You are responsible/liable for your tenants. The HOA Board will provide feedback to you if tenants are violating CC&R rules. You are liable for any damages and fines that may occur with tenants, 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. Property management companies are not supported by SeaBreeze or the HOA. While we require your property management company agreement on file, you will need to directly contact SeaBreeze for any requests.  Requests from property management companies will not be honored.

5. 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.

6. 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.
