Communications With The Tenant

One of the important services that any property management professional in Cameron Homes performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the property owner. The best practice is for the landlord to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for rental investors: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Cameron Homes will often ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there in the first place. A renter can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to give into a request that is counter to the landlord's own interests.

The consequence of giving into a seemingly simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal all matters to the landlord, which cost the landlord time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the landlord to build a personal relationship with the landlord. Personal feelings can make it much harder for the landlord to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a property owner at odd hours or with crazy requests.
