The
General
Guidelines for Rental Property Inspections*
serve as general guidelines for the maintenance of rental
property within Delhi Charter Township. Rental inspections
may include, but are not limited to the
items in this guide.
If the situation occurs in which
you believe the township has wrongfully identified
your property as a rental dwelling, a
Disclaimer of
Rental Registration Affidavit*
must be completed and returned to the township.
The
"Tenants and Landlords - A Practical Guide" is
prepared by the State Legislature and covers a range of
issues including lease agreements, maintenance, and
mediation. It also includes many sample forms.
