Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important services that a property manager in Woodstone performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the owner to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Woodstone will often ask to bend lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed landlord at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to give into a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

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

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

 

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