Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical services that your property management professional in Lee Harrison performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the landlord. The best practice is for the landlord to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Lee Harrison typically ask to break lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions exist. A tenant can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the property owner to grant a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter believes 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 property owner. 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 owner at odd hours or with crazy requests.
