Communications With The Tenant

One of the important duties that your property manager in Potters_glen performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the rental investor. The best practice is for the landlord to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Potters_glen will often ask to break rules, or ask for other special requests. The property manager knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there in the first place. A renter can catch an uniformed property owner at a moment of ignorance causing the owner to give into a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take every question to the rental investor, which cost the property 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 property owner to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a owner at strange hours or with various requests.

 

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