A property manager confronts a tenant about an unauthorized satellite dish on the roof. The manager warns it violates the lease, risks roof damage, and any repairs will be billed to the tenant. The tenant claims the cable company installed it, but the manager demands immediate removal.
Hey Toby, what's up? Hey, I got a call from the property manager. He was kind of doing a routine check, walking around, and he saw a satellite dish up on the roof.
Yeah, I got new internet TV stuff.
You did what? I got new TV service. And didn't you think that you might want to call us and get approval before you started drilling holes into the roof?
I didn't drill any holes. That's all on the cable company. They should have gotten with you.
You understand that they could have damaged the property. How do you even know if they installed it properly? I mean, what if it leaks the next time it rains? What are we we gonna do about that? I guess I'll turn in a maintenance request. If it leaks and if we have to turn in a maintenance request and fix it, then I'm gonna have to bill you. How is that on me? We're gonna have to get this fixed. You cannot leave it there. We need to get it removed now. You have no right to have that installed in the first place, and you're in violation of your lease. I'll be following up later today if it's not handled, and then we're going to have a crew come out there and do it, and I'm going to charge you. Yeah, that's not gonna happen. It's gonna happen. Hello?
