Of all the potential issues that can arise from tenants in multi-residential buildings, hoarding is one of the toughest to handle. Where more visible problems such as blatant crime or destruction of property might be more obviously destructive, it’s pretty straightforward to manage.

The Unique Characteristics of Hoarding Damage
A burst pipe or a broken window is a pain, for sure, but either is fairly routine when it comes to management responsibilities. Hoarding, however, can come with a practically endless supply of issues that are unique to the individual’s condition. Some people hoard food, which can lead to mold, rot, and other biohazards. Other people hoard animals, which tends to result in carpet damage and odor. Still others may collect paper products that can be a fire hazard. You need to remember that hoarding is a psychological condition that doesn’t always present in the same way. For property managers, this means you may not be able to predict hoarding damage in advance.
