Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical services that any property manager in Brand_new_construction performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the landlord. The best practice is for the rental investor to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for rental investors: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Brand_new_construction may ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there. A renter can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the landlord to grant a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The consequence of giving into a seemingly simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is a higher authority to appeal to, the renter will appeal every question to the owner, which cost the landlord time and effort.

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

 

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