Services for Jersey City Landlords

Did you know that 70% of Jersey City residents are renters? Landlords, let AYL Home Improvements help keep you keep your property safe and your residents happy.

As a landlord, investor, and real estate agent myself, I know what it takes to pass the NJ DCA "green card" inspection to obtain the all-important Certificate of Inspection on the first try. This state inspection takes place every 5 years and covers comprehensive property safety and habitability in 3+ family properties.

Is your rental property due for a refresh? Let me help you maximize your cap rate by installing the kinds of renovations that bring in higher monthly rent rates and reduce vacancies.

Pre-"Green Card" Inspection & Remediation

Are you due for your 5-year Certificate of Inspection by the NJ Department of Community Affairs / Bureau of Housing Inspection? No resident wants to hear that their home doesn't meet basic safety standards, so let us help you pass on the first try.

AYL Home Improvements can conduct a pre-inspection walk-through of your Jersey City, NJ property and perform repairs to help you pass your inspection. With the latest laws, if you pass on the first or second try, you get an extension to 7 years before your next inspection! If it takes your 3+ tries to pass, your property will require re-inspection every 2 years -- at your cost.

Our comprehensive 17-point examination includes testing and installation of any necessary 10-year sealed battery smoke detector / carbon monoxide monitors as well as checking fire extinguishers, door auto-closers, paint, emergency lights, entry doors, fire escapes, and more. (Landlords pay only for necessary detectors and parts). Then we will be on-site for the state inspection -- no need for you to take time off work.

If we find areas of improvement, we can bring your property up to current NJ code for a reasonable price. Services include installation of approved fire extinguishers, fire escape rust removal and painting, installation of door closers, fire-blocking paint, and more.
