Receiving delivery of a new home to your property is an exciting event. Taking care of the home asset by ensuring it is received and set up properly is vital to the long term useful life of the home. Receiving the home when it comes offline at the home building facility initiates the set up process. Once the home is on site, checking the home for damage or service repairs should happen within days of receiving the home. Coordinating with contractors to order materials and complete the labor for the installation of items such as a foundation, skirting, A/C, steps and services for utilities takes an organized effort to get the home set up and ready for occupancy for your new tenant.
