On Sunday, March 10th, Daylight Saving Time Begins!
The practice of advancing clocks during warmer months so that darkness falls at a later clock time. Hip Hip Hooray for more daylight!
REMEMBER TO KEEP YOUR RENTER’S INSURANCE POLICY CURRENT AND UP TO DATE! All tenants and occupants 18 years and older must have renters insurance.
Please send us a copy of your renewed policy so we can add to your portal:
REMINDER: WORK ORDER POLICY
The Maintenance Department consolidates work orders to minimize the amount of
trips to your homes and exposure of Covid, Flu and other viruses. Please ONLY SUBMIT ONE
WORK ORDER every TWO MONTHS for non-emergency/non-essential repairs. This one work
order can have multiple items listed. If multiple work orders are submitted multiple times
within 2 months for non-emergency/non-essential repairs, maintenance will cancel the request.
If you are having any sickness and/or virus symptoms, please inform our Maintenance
Department when they coordinate your work order appointments. Please submit your repairs
that are non-emergencies/non-essentials through your portal.
As a reminder your lease states the following about work orders:
For emergencies only, please call (940) 262-0091 Ext 1002. Messages left will be checked after hours and on weekends. Please submit a work order as well. Please make note of this change.
Maintenance requests MUST be in writing so please use your tenant portal. Photos can also be uploaded to support your maintenance requests. Report any leaks so minor problems don’t turn into major ones.
Maintenance emergencies are:
Major Water Leak (shut off water immediately)
Heat is out and it is below 55 degrees
AC is out and it is above 85 degrees
Toilets: None are working (not just one)
Sewage backup throughout (not just a clogged drain)
Broken windows and doors (not lockouts)
Electrical: Outages (not caused by the power company or weather related) that affect major parts of the home
The HVAC systems can only perform within a 20 degree differential. If it's 100+ and you want your house to cool to 70 then you might want to invest in a portable a/c unit that you can move from room to room to create an even cooler environment.
We service each of our rental properties quarterly or semi-annually for filter changes, smoke alarm testing and property walkthroughs. This is a requirement of your Landlord and to ensure the safety and condition of your home. If you refuse service, do not allow access to your rental property, do not leave your keyless deadbolt unlocked or do not safely secure your pet in its crate, a $65 trip charge will be added to your rental account.
If you are ever locked out of your rental property, it is your responsibility to contact and pay for locksmith services. This is not a maintenance request (see above).
Do NOT pour oil or grease down any drains including garbage disposals to prevent clogs and repairs being charged back to tenants due to misuse.
“Flushable” Wipes — and Almost Everything Else — Are Not Flushable. Here is a simple truth. Sewer systems were designed to handle two things — human waste and toilet paper. Flushing wipes increases the chances that the pipes will get blocked and cause serious problems for the sewer system in general. Repairs caused by misuse will be charged back to tenants.
Per your Lease Agreement, all tenants and occupants 18 years and older need their own separate Renter’s Insurance Policy or on a combined policy naming all tenants and occupants as insureds. 3G Properties Group should be named on your policy as an “additional interest” so your insurance company will automatically send us your proof of insurance and any changes or updates. If all tenants are not named on the insurance policy or we do not have a copy of your policy on file, there is a mandatory $15 landlord’s liability insurance policy charged to your rental property each month to be included in your rent payment. Tenant’s personal property is not protected unless Tenant has their own RENTERS INSURANCE.
DUE TO LIABILITY, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD ANY TENANT OR OCCUPANT ACCESS THE ATTIC OF THE PROPERTY FOR STORAGE OR ANY OTHER PURPOSE. You are not allowed to change your AC filters if they are located in the attic space or above 6 feet from the ground.
No temporary or above ground pools of any kind or trampolines are permitted on the property per your Lease Agreement, paragraph 12D.
Tenants must kennel or crate pets whenever the landlord or landlord’s representative will be on property for a scheduled appointment. If not, there will be a $65 trip charge added to your rental account.
If you have an addition to your family, i.e. new baby, please let us know so we can add them as occupants. We will need their name and date of birth. Any occupants 18 or older are required to complete a rental application for approval prior to them moving in.
Please make all payments through your portal. We do not accept personal checks.
Written communication is best! When you have questions or concerns related to your lease, policies or procedures, please email to admin@3gpropertiesgroup.com. 3G personnel will respond within 48 business hours. Thank you!

Try this delicious Baked Keto Chicken Wings - Sweet & Spicy
INGREDIENTS
3 pounds Chicken Wings
4 tbsp melted butter or ghee for paleo
2 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves minced
1 tsp Salt
1/3 tsp Black Pepper
1/3 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 Chilli Pepper
1 tsp ginger powder
1 tbsp swerve, brown sugar
1 lemon juice
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 lime juice
1/2 tsp fresh parsley chopped
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 200ºC / 400ºF. Place lemon slices on a baking sheet. Dry the chicken wings thoroughly with paper towels, pressing down hard to remove as much excess moisture as possible.
Place the chicken wings in a large bowl. Set aside.
In a small bowl combine the melted butter or ghee, brown sugar (swerve), ginger powder, soy sauce, lemon and lime, garlic cloves, chili pepper, salt, black and cayenne pepper.
Pour this mixture over the wings and using your hands, toss well to coat. Spread the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the wings until browned and crisp (45-50 minutes), using tongues to flip them over halfway.
Carefully remove wings from the oven and transfer them to a large serving platter. Sprinkle the wings with parsley. Serve with lemon and lime wedges.
