Alterations and additions made to the residential premises
According to this Act, the tenant should not make any alterations to the premises without consent
of the original owner. The following rules apply according to the residential tenancies act 2010
(Glaskin, and Weiner, 2013).
First without a written assent from the landlord or what the tenancy agreement permits, the
tenant should not install or else request an installment of a fixture or make any renovations,
additions and alterations to the residential property. It is against the residential property rules to
make adjustments to rented residential premises without agreement with the landlord.
The other rule is that the landlord must not without a good reason withhold assent to an
additional fixture, renovation, an alteration, addition which is minor in nature. The tenant thereby
has a right to make reasonable renovations, additions and alternations after consulting the
landlord who shouldn’t withhold permission.
The landlord is allowed to withhold consent of other actions made by the tenant that are allowed
under this section. It does not matter whether the action is reasonable or not. Therefore, the
landlord has the right over the tenant not to grant permission to take other actions.
Under the next rule, it states that when a fixture is installed by the tenant or on his behalf, any
renovations, alterations and additions to the residential property by the tenant or on his behalf,
the tenant should incur the cost unless the landlord wishes to pay.
This section acts as a term and applies accordingly in all the residential tenancy agreements (Act,
2010).

Information Manual Specific to Property Management
The duties and responsibilities of property officers includes the following. First, they are
responsible of managing the daily operations at the properties assigned. The management of
these properties includes ensuring that the properties are safe, secure and in good condition. The
second role is maintaining of the properties. The daily operations will help detect any
maintenance needed on the properties. The officers should also market and rent out properties to
new tenants. They should also screen for prospective tenants who would fill up the vacant
properties. The officers should also enforce the leases and secure the property. Another
responsibility is handling of evictions, move outs, emergencies and any complaints made by the
tenants (Baxt, 2005).
A property officer is responsible for dispute resolution between the tenant and the company. he
does this by following the procedure in the tenancy act. The officer should always have in mind
that customers always comes first and they should be handled with care effectively.
The property officer should ensure that the tenants sign and agree to the conditions stipulated in
the statutory and leasing documents (Lipton, 2004). This is one way of avoiding future disputes
which could be avoiding through making an agreement.
When starting a tenancy, the tenant should ensure that the rental is satisfactory according to their
wish, there should be no damages before entry and the property should be in a good condition.
The tenant therefore signs an agreement which states that they should not make any alterations,
additions or renovations to the property unless with the consent of the property owner. The
agreement further states that the tenant is responsible for all damages made to the property
(Bishop, 1967). The tenant should be given a pair of keys to each door in the property.

During tenancy, the tenants act as the owner of the property therefore they are responsible for
any damages made. The lessor has no right to access the property during tenancy without the
consent of the tenant. Rent should be paid in full amounts before the fifth day of each month
through the given bank account number. Any emergency repair can be done by the lessor when
requested by the tenant. Fixtures and inclusions can be made only after consent of the lessor. The
tenant cannot sell the property.
At the end of the tenancy, the abandoned premises should be checked and any damages made
charged on the previous tenant. When the tenant moves out, he loses all the right to the property
as a tenant and therefore should not have access to property. The tenant should give a month
notice before moving out (Pippen, 2009). The tenant will be given a questionnaire to fill out
which contains questions on the period of tenancy. He can give comments about the agency. He
can also suggest the necessary improvements to be made on the tenancy and property which
would enhance comfort of the tenants.
In case of irregular incidences for example when the tenant or lessor breaks the agreement, the
tenancy could end after agreement of both parties. when the tenant is on the wrong, he could be
given a warning indicating that such actions would end his tenancy anytime. When the lessor
breaks the agreement, the tenant can move out without a one-month notice. In cases of non-
payment of rent, the tenant should pay before the fifteenth date of the month with a 20% fine,
after the fifteenth date, the property should be locked by the property officer. Incidences that
would lead to tenancy agreement termination would include, failure to pay rent, excessive
damage to the property and failure to follow the rules stipulated in the tenancy agreement
(Edwards, 1985).
