Sacramento Rental Inspections Update

I promised to do a follow up in the rental inspections underway at my rental within the Sacramento city limits. And I might have to eat my words. It seems like the city might just be getting a handle on things. The last time I called, I didn't have to leave a message. I spoke with a real person who said she would dig up the file and mail it to me. Later, she called me back to let me know she had found the file of code violations and mailed them. I was impressed.

The inspector did however arrive three hours before he was scheduled, but even the pickiest of picky guys found nothing to complain about. My rental passed.

But be forewarned. These home inspectors are not as lenient as the ones you get when you buy a home. For whatever reason the city has decided to be very, very strict. Now, I can only hope that all landlords - especially the ones everyone on the block knows to be bad managers - get their just deserts.
