Course Description
In this course, IREM Instructor and expert witness, Jeff Lapin, CPM®, shares his unique perspective on why good maintenance procedures at our properties are not only good management but also good ethics. Jeff provides attorneys with his expert opinion on landlord and property management standards of care for commercial and residential properties. This perspective has allowed him to speak authoritatively about what it takes for property owners and managers to meet and even exceed the reasonable standards of care by employing proper inspection and maintenance policies and procedures, thereby avoid injuries to tenants and visitors at our properties.
Doing so also allows you to live up to the high ethical standards that IREM® sets for its members in the IREM® Code of Professional Ethics.
