REMINDER: WORK ORDER POLICY
The Maintenance Department consolidates work orders to minimize the amount of
trips to your homes and exposure of Covid, Flu and other viruses. Please ONLY SUBMIT ONE
WORK ORDER every TWO MONTHS for non-emergency/non-essential repairs. This one work
order can have multiple items listed. If multiple work orders are submitted multiple times
within 2 months for non-emergency/non-essential repairs, maintenance will cancel the request.
If you are having any sickness and/or virus symptoms, please inform our Maintenance
Department when they coordinate your work order appointments. Please submit your repairs
that are non-emergencies/non-essentials through your portal.
As a reminder your lease states the following about work orders:
For emergencies only, please call (940) 262-0091 Ext 1002 to leave a voicemail. Messages left will be checked after hours and on weekends. Please submit a work order so we have written documentation. We WILL NOT process a work order request without your written work order first through your tenant portal.
Photos must also be uploaded to support your maintenance requests.
Maintenance emergencies are:
Water Leaks (shut off water immediately)
Heat is out and it is below 55 degrees
AC is out and it is above 85 degrees
Toilets: None are working (not just one)
Sewage backup throughout (not just a clogged drain)
Broken windows and doors (not lockouts) If this is a lockout, you must call a locksmith and report this to maintenance via a work order once our office is open.
Electrical: Outages (not caused by the power company or weather related) that affect major parts of the home
The HVAC systems can only perform within a 20 degree differential. If it's 100+ and you want your house to cool to 70 then you might want to invest in a portable a/c unit that you can move from room to room to create an even cooler environment.
We do not handle anything other than emergencies on the weekend and after hours. If it is non emergency it will be handled the next business day.
If you are ever locked out of your rental property, it is your responsibility to contact and pay for locksmith services. This is not a maintenance request (see above).
Do NOT pour oil or grease down any drains including garbage disposals to prevent clogs and repairs being charged back to tenants due to misuse.
“Flushable” Wipes — and Almost Everything Else — Are Not Flushable. Here is a simple truth. Sewer systems were designed to handle two things — human waste and toilet paper. Flushing wipes increases the chances that the pipes will get blocked and cause serious problems for the sewer system in general. Repairs caused by misuse will be charged back to tenants.
LEASE REMINDERS
DUE TO LIABILITY, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY TENANT OR OCCUPANT ACCESS THE ATTIC OF THE PROPERTY FOR STORAGE OR ANY OTHER PURPOSE. You are not allowed to change your AC filters if they are located in the attic space or above 6 feet from the ground.
No temporary or above ground pools of any kind or trampolines are permitted on the property per your Lease Agreement, paragraph 12D.
If you have an addition to your family, i.e. new baby, please let us know so we can add them as occupants. We will need their name and date of birth. Any occupants 18 or older are required to complete a rental application for approval prior to them moving in.
Written communication is best! When you have questions or concerns related to your lease, policies or procedures, please email to admin@3gpropertiesgroup.com. 3G personnel will respond within 48 business hours. Thank you!
REMEMBER TO KEEP YOUR RENTER’S INSURANCE POLICY CURRENT AND UP TO DATE! All tenants and occupants 18 years and older must have renters insurance.
3G Properties Group should be named on your policy as an “additional interest” so your insurance company will automatically send us your proof of insurance and any changes or updates. If all tenants are not named on the insurance policy or we do not have a copy of your policy on file, there is a mandatory $15 landlord’s liability insurance policy charged to your rental property each month to be included in your rent payment. Tenant’s personal property is not protected unless Tenant has their own RENTERS INSURANCE.
Please send us a copy of your renewed policy so we can add to your portal:
ALL ANIMALS MUST BE APPROVED
Per your Lease Agreement, all animals must be approved prior to bringing them onto the rental property. This includes assistance and support animals. Prior to having an animal or pet, please contact Lilian at admin@3gpropertiesgroup.com so she can assist you with the approval process. Please remember to have all animals approved through Pet Screening: https://3gpropertiesgroup.petscreening.com/
Hard Freeze Watch
A Hard Freeze Watch means very cold temperatures less than 10 degrees are possible. These conditions may cause uninsulated and exposed pipes to freeze and burst. To prevent freezing of pipes...either wrap exposed pipes or allow faucets to slowly drip. Ensure that irrigation systems are turned off and winterized. Preparations should be made now to protect any plants that are sensitive to these extreme temperatures. Also remember to provide adequate shelter or arrangements for outdoor pets.
3G Properties wants to make sure you are prepared. We encourage all tenants to take the following precautions to prevent freeze breakage of their water pipes.
leave the heat on at least 65 degrees
leave cabinet doors open under sinks
leave both cold and hot water running slightly, when temps will stay below freezing for a long period of time
close all doors and windows tightly
remove any garden hoses from outside faucets
cover or wrap outdoor faucets
turn sprinkler systems off if they are set on an automatic schedule. Winterize and drain sprinkler systems during winter months.

National Hugging Day
January 21
The Welcome Hug
~Unknown
In the welcome hug, a story of return,
Of missed moments, for which we yearn,
In that embrace, time stands still,
A reunion of hearts, a joyful thrill.
Arms that say, “You’re finally here,”
A hug that whispers, “I hold you dear,”
In this meeting, emotions flood,
In the welcome hug, a warmth like blood.
A gesture of love, so profound,
In this hug, our lives are bound,
A welcome that speaks without a word,
In this embrace, our spirits heard.
