About this file

This is a Communication Timeliness Guide establishing performance standards between the Property Management Company (PMC) and Housing Development Corporation of Rock Hill (HDCRH) for the management of 29 residential properties owned by HDCRH and six properties owned by the City of Rock Hill, South Carolina. The guide sets minimum communication expectations across critical, high-priority, and routine categories to ensure timely decision-making, regulatory compliance, and consistent property operations. Critical issues including emergency maintenance exceeding $250, insurance lapses, tenant abandonment, and incidents affecting health or safety require immediate notification via phone call and email upon discovery. High-priority items such as eviction proceedings, lease violations, and unit vacancies require email notification immediately or prior to action. Routine communications include repairs under $250, tenant communications, lease violation notices, and delinquent rent notices, with notification requirements ranging from three to ten business days of completion or issuance.

The guide establishes specific monthly reporting deadlines, requiring financial reports, tenant satisfaction survey results, and coordination meetings to occur no later than the 20th of each month. The PMC is encouraged to exceed minimum standards and communicate sooner when circumstances warrant. These timelines serve as contractual performance standards for the property management relationship and define the baseline expectations for operational oversight and administrative coordination between the managing company and HDCRH.
