Introduction Every PG has house rules. Fewer have house rules that anyone follows. The laminated list on the notice board gets ignored, the rule about guests gets bent, and the rule about noise gets noticed only when someone complains. Then the owner either lets it slide or gets strict all at once, and tenants feel […]
Introduction Most PG owners say they listen to their tenants. In practice, “listening” often means whoever complains loudest gets a reply, and everyone else stays silent until the day they give notice. By then, the feedback arrives in the form of an empty bed. A PG tenant feedback system fixes that. It gives you a […]
A tap washer here, a fan capacitor there, a mattress that needs replacing, a geyser that has died for the third time this year. None of these repairs looks big on its own. Add them up at the end of the year and PG maintenance cost is often one of the largest expenses after rent […]
Introduction A tenant tells the caretaker the bathroom tap in Room 204 is leaking. The caretaker says he’ll tell you. You’re busy, so you forget. Two weeks later the tenant brings it up again, now annoyed, and the water bill has crept up too. A PG maintenance log is how you stop that cycle. It’s […]
Introduction Picture this. It’s the 1st of the month, and you’re trying to work out who has paid rent. The register is missing a few pages, a tenant says he paid UPI last week, and your manager is on leave with the only spreadsheet on his phone. Nobody can prove anything. This is what poor […]
Introduction A tenant has given notice, packed their bags, and is standing at the gate asking, “So, how much do I get back?” If you don’t have the numbers ready, this is where small disagreements turn into long arguments. A clear PG final settlement calculation prevents that. Whether you run a 10-bed PG or a […]
Introduction Every new tenant means another ID card, another form, another document to keep track of and after a few years of running a PG, that pile of paperwork can become genuinely hard to manage. Misplaced ID copies, illegible photocopies, and no clear record of which document belongs to which tenant are common problems once […]
Introduction Running one PG is manageable with a notebook and a good memory. Add a second or third property, and that same approach starts to break – tenant details blur together, rent status becomes hard to verify across buildings, and knowing which rooms are vacant where requires calling different managers. Learning how to manage multiple […]
Introduction A leaking tap, a broken fan, a geyser that stopped working- these small issues pile up fast in a PG, and how quickly they get resolved shapes whether tenants stay or leave. PG maintenance management is the process of tracking, prioritising, and resolving these day-to-day complaints in an organised way, rather than reacting to […]
