Communications With The Tenant

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

Renters in Courtbridge_i typically ask to change lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the rules exist. A tenant can ambush an uniformed owner at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to give into a request that is against the rental investor'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 knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal all matters to the property owner, which cost the owner time and effort.

Tenants will use contact with the property 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 tenant can hound or harass a rental investor at odd hours or with crazy requests.

 

We're paid to be your protect the owner's interests. It's harder to achieve that goal when the renter is going to ask the property owner to second-guess our work.
