Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that your property manager in Non_subdivision performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the landlord. The best practice is for the landlord to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for rental investors: never share your contact information with the renter.

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

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

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