An emergency is defined as a maintenance problem that will cause a safety hazard to residents, or an imminent damage to property, so that fixing it cannot wait until the next business day. A few examples would be an overflowing toilet, a broken pipe, or sudden electrical short. If there is a power outage, call the electric company in your area first to see if there is a general power outage in the area.

Email a “Maintenance Request” to maintenance@streamlinedpropertymanagement.com or you may call 239.238.3828. Please note that if there is a problem, which was caused by you or your guests, such as an inappropriate item flushed down the toilet, you will be charged for the repair.

If you do not pay last month’s rent, you will be subject to eviction proceedings. You are entitled to an accounting of your security deposit as well as the appropriate refund, within 30 days of your moving out of the unit, if there will be a claim on your deposit.  If there won’t be a claim, your refund check will be ready for pick up 15 days after move out.

1) You can replace your current roommate with a new one: This new roommate will need to fill out a complete application, send in their most recent month of paystubs and ID to be screened. In the case they are approved a change is made.

2) You want to keep the unit by yourself: You will need to send in your most recent month of paystubs showing that you can afford that unit by yourself. If approved then your roommate will be removed from the lease. In both cases the security deposit is handling between the roommates as the office won’t release any deposit unless all roommates move out. The remaining tenant and vacating tenant, both, will be required to sign a tenant vacating form.
