Technology in Property Management: How It Benefits Landlords & Tenants
December 16, 2025
Understanding South Carolina’s landlord-tenant laws is essential for protecting your investment and avoiding costly disputes. The South Carolina Residential Landlord and Tenant Act outlines responsibilities for both parties—and small mistakes can lead to major legal issues.
Security deposits: Landlords must return deposits within 30 days after a tenant moves out, along with an itemized list of any deductions.
Right of entry: Reasonable notice—typically 24 hours—should be given before entering an occupied unit.
Repairs and maintenance: Owners must provide safe, habitable housing by maintaining plumbing, heating, and electrical systems.
Evictions: Removing a tenant without a court order is illegal. Always follow the proper legal process.
Being proactive and informed protects both you and your tenants. Partnering with a professional management company ensures that leases, inspections, and communications all meet state requirements.
