Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important duties that your property management expert in Edge_hill performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the property owner. The best practice is for the landlord to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Edge_hill often ask to change rules, or make other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there in the first place. A renter can ambush an uniformed owner at a moment of weakness causing the rental investor to give into a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter believes there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will take every question to the landlord, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

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

 

We're paid to be your defend the property owner's interests. It's more difficult to achieve that goal when the tenant is going to ask the property owner to overrule our work.
