Landautomate keeps an operating calendar for independent landlords: what needs doing on a rental, when it is due, and why. This page is the New Hampshire content from our reviewed rule base. Every item below carries its sources and the date we last checked them.
This guide is the reading version of our New Hampshire rule base. In the app, the same rules become dated tasks on each of your New Hampshire properties, timed to your purchase date, lease dates, property age, and climate, with an email before each one is due. The free preview shows a sample of that schedule for New Hampshire in under a minute, no account needed.
New Hampshire landlords commonly track 5 state and local compliance obligations, each listed below with its schedule, its sources, and the date we last verified it. Among them: file New Hampshire LLC annual report by April 1, return security deposit and itemized list within 30 days after tenancy ends, and review interest owed on security deposits held a year or longer.
If your rental is held in an LLC or corporation registered in New Hampshire, filing its annual report with the Secretary of State by April 1 avoids a $50 late fee on top of the $100 filing fee, and missed reports can lead to administrative dissolution.
In New Hampshire towns that bill property tax twice a year, the first installment is usually due around July 1, and paying by the date printed on your town's bill avoids interest that runs at 8 percent a year on any late balance.
Returning the security deposit and any interest owed within 30 days after the tenancy ends, with a written itemized list of any deductions and receipts or estimates for repair charges, protects New Hampshire landlords covered by the deposit law from liability of up to twice the deposit plus interest.
Unless you rent only one single-family home and own no other rental property, or rent units in an owner-occupied building of five units or less (units occupied by someone 60 or older stay covered), New Hampshire requires paying interest on a security deposit held a year or longer at the regular savings rate of the New Hampshire bank, savings and loan, or credit union holding it, so a yearly review of each deposit account keeps that interest ready to pay at move-out or when a tenant asks for it.
New Hampshire requires every rental unit to have smoke alarms and, where the unit has an attached garage or any appliance or device that burns fuel, carbon monoxide alarms, and makes the owner responsible for keeping them in working order, so a yearly test of every alarm (replacing any smoke alarm older than 10 years, as the US Fire Administration advises) keeps each unit compliant and its occupants protected.

Landlords in New Hampshire plan upkeep around a cold climate: this guide lists 7 seasonal maintenance items for New Hampshire in calendar order, each with its timing and the date we last verified it. Among them: monitor roof snow load and check for ice dams, test sump pump and clear foundation drainage before snowmelt, and smoke and CO detector seasonal test.
Midwinter checks for ice damming and heavy roof snow catch structural stress and meltwater leaks before interior damage appears.
Snow cover across most of New Hampshire melts during March and April, and meltwater and spring rain can raise groundwater and send runoff toward the foundation, so testing the sump pump and clearing downspout outlets and drainage paths in early March helps keep water out of the basement.
An annual full test of smoke and CO detectors (beyond battery swaps) confirms every alarm actually sounds.
Freeze-thaw cycles crack roofs and foundations; a spring inspection catches winter damage early.
Hard freezes usually reach New Hampshire's North Country around the end of September and Concord by mid-October, and water left in hoses, hose bibs, irrigation lines, or plumbing in unheated spaces expands as it freezes and can crack the spigot or the pipe behind it, so draining and shutting off these lines by mid-September prevents burst pipes and water damage.
A pre-season furnace inspection prevents mid-winter heating failures and carbon monoxide risk.
Clearing gutters after leaf drop prevents ice dams and roofline water damage in winter.
Every rental needs the same baseline care regardless of state: this guide tracks 16 recurring upkeep items, each with its schedule and the date we last verified it. Among them: CPA tax document preparation, gutter inspection, and HVAC filter replacement.
