Am I responsible for tenant safety and security measures at the property?

Yes, property owners are responsible for providing a safe environment for tenants. This includes ensuring that doors and windows have secure locks, installing proper lighting in common areas, and maintaining smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. While tenants are responsible for their personal safety, you have a duty to ensure that the property itself is secure and adheres to local safety laws. EGL Properties can help monitor these security features and coordinate necessary upgrades.
