Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical duties that any property management expert in Ferry Point Estates performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the landlord. The best practice is for the property owner to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for rental investors: never share your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Ferry Point Estates may ask to change lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to grant a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

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

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

 

We're paid to be your defend the owner's interests. It's harder to do that job when the tenant is going to ask the property owner to second-guess our work.
