What is a Deferred Maintenance Adjustment?

When you partner with Unison, you agree to keep your home in good condition and do routine maintenance as needed. For example, you would be responsible for ensuring that there are no leaks in the roof, that interior and exterior paint is not chipped or cracked, that electrical outlets and heating or cooling systems are in good working order, in addition to all other maintenance.

If you fail to do routine maintenance, that could affect the value of the home whenever you choose to sell it. In that case, Unison would use a Deferred Maintenance Adjustment to determine what the home’s value should have been. Unison’s share would then be calculated based on this adjusted sale price.
