Resident Responsibilities

Residents are responsible for basic maintenance. Please refer to your lease for additional details.

  • Examples include, but are not limited to, the following:

    • Replacement of lightbulbs, batteries, and HVAC filter replacements. We recommend replacing the HVAC filter once a month. Honore Properties will replace the HVAC filters twice a year as part of the HVAC Spring and Fall inspections.
    • De-clogging simple drain clogs and toilets. As a reminder, you should NEVER put any grease down kitchen drains. No sanitary napkins or feminine products should be flushed down toilets.

General Maintenance Requests (Landlord Responsibilities)

All standard maintenance requests should be submitted via the Resident Online Portal. This is the preferred method for non-emergency requests and will result in the quickest response.

  • Keep the following in mind when submitting maintenance requests:

    • Describe thoroughly what the problem is, what you’ve already done to mitigate the problem, and include pictures when possible. 
    • Be sure to include available days/times that we have permission to enter in the request. Indicate whether or not pets will be home and how they will be secured. 
    • If you would prefer to be home during the maintenance visit, please indicate that in the request.
    • Disable any alarms for the apartment while the maintenance is being performed.

What to Do When Locked Out:

If you are locked out, it is your responsibility to get back into the apartment.

  • More lock out information below:

    In the event of a lockout during business hours, please submit a request through your Resident Online Portal. If we can provide access to the Premises, you will pay a fee of $80.00 to the Landlord’s agent or maintenance person at the time of service. We reserve the right to waive this fee at our discretion.


    If the lockout occurs outside of business hours, and we are able to provide access to the Premises, you will pay a fee of $120.00 to the Landlord's agent or maintenance person at the time of service. If the Landlord is unable to provide access to the Premises or Building, you must agree to hire a reputable locksmith to regain access and are solely responsible for any fees due to the locksmith. You will also be responsible for all fees or charges related to new locks or keys if the lock to the apartment or the Property requires changes due to negligence or loss thereof. Any keys that are lost or broken by you will be replaced by the Landlord at the cost indicated in your Lease which varies by property and key type.
