What about damage to the property?

A security deposit is maintained on each property to cover minor repairs/damage. 1HMS videotapes each property prior to move-in as well as a written pre-move-in inspection report.

What if the on-site managers will not vacate the property?

There are no tenant rights in this contract. If the on-site manager tried to stay past the move out date, 1HMS has the legal right to declare the on-site manager trespassing, and seize and sell their furniture with the assistance of the local sheriff's department.
