General Manager’s Report

 

Melani Caron

Approximately four in ten homes in suburban America are occupied by renters. If your property is one of those homes, or about to become one, then I encourage you to read further in order to learn about helpful tips for you, your renters and the association as you embark on renting your home.

The first step when deciding to rent your home is to call or stop by the Ranch House front desk to obtain all the necessary forms and information on how to register. In order to ensure your renter has a smooth check in, we’d like to ask that you do your part by registering them (and this goes for guests, too) in advance of their arrival to Robson Ranch.

Educating prospective renters is another important step. Please be sure to inform them about the special considerations of living in an Active Adult Community before they sign a lease. At least one person in the party must meet the age requirement of being 55+ and all parties must be related to one another.

Next is to make sure that your lease agreement is for a minimum of 30 days or more and is for the entire home. Casita, weekend, weekly or transient leases are strictly prohibited. Please be sure you have a copy of the lease with you at registration time. Rentals for less than 30 days will not be accepted and use of the amenities by the renters will be prohibited.

Be an advocate. After all of the necessary paperwork has been submitted and approved, please make sure the renters know how to access the sports club facilities, the restaurant, dog park and so much more. We have a lot of fun things to do at Robson Ranch and our goal is to make sure everyone has the opportunity to participate during their stay.

Lastly, even though renters do not have a vote on association matters, they are an important part of our community. Please join the staff and I as we make them feel welcomed, provide information that will familiarize them with the association and encourage them to participate in community activities whenever possible. Today’s renters may be tomorrow’s owners—or even board members. The more we all do to promote a sense of belonging for renters, the more positive and successful the leasing experience will be for everyone.
