Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that your property management professional in Potomac Yard Condominium performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the rental investor. The best practice is for the rental investor to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important advice for owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Potomac Yard Condominium often ask to change lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed property owner at a moment of ignorance causing the property owner to grant a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is a higher authority to appeal to, the renter will appeal every question 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 renter can hound or harass a landlord at odd hours or with crazy requests.

 

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