Equally as important for property managers is owner relations. Adding safety precautions to your homes not only protects guests but also protects and maintains your owners’ homes.

I'm super excited to be a Breezeway certified safety inspector. We plan to promote safety inspections to prospective owners as a benefit of signing with our management company. We're going to spend time marketing this service, and I encourage my partners and staff to take Breezeway's course as well.
I was ecstatic when I came across Breezeway's safety program. The course afforded me the opportunity to educate and support owners in protecting their investment, and assurance that our guests have safe experiences. I just can't say enough positive things about Breezeway's safety program, and my experience with the entire Breezeway team.
I worked with Breezeway's safety expert Justin Ford to certify my team of nine managers as Breezeway inspectors. We've informed our owners that safety inspections will be a requirement for us moving forward, which will accompany our general inspections.
