Communications With The Tenant

Handling interactions with a renter in Alcova Heights

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

Renters in Alcova Heights will often ask to break lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the rules are there. A renter can catch an uniformed landlord at a moment of weakness causing the owner to give into a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The result of giving into what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will appeal every question to the rental investor, which cost the property owner time and effort.

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