The Genrae community is as involved as you want us to be. As long as you take care of your home and pay your mortgage, taxes, and insurance, you can plan to be in touch with us as needed. If you decide to sell your property or make major improvements on your property (adjust your mortgage/property value), you should contact Genrae for assistance.
