The 4^th of July is approaching quickly, and this is the driest California has been in many years. That means the risk of accidental fires is very high. Combine that threat with a nation of liquored-up partiers setting off illegal fireworks, and property owners are staring at a legitimate risk this holiday.

There are several safety precautions landlords can take to protect their investments, but their best bet is to educate the tenants. It is incumbent upon the property owner to always look out for their own best interests, because renters will normally have other priorities. The issue is that a lot of smaller, private landlords do not have the infrastructure to maintain steady communication with their residents about their tenancy. That is exactly what a good management service offers. So consider handing the keys of your investment property over to a professional property manager, and keep Castle in mind when you do.
