Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical duties that any property management professional in Cardinal_house_condo performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the landlord. The best practice is for the owner to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Cardinal_house_condo will often ask to bend rules, or ask for other special requests. The property manager knows the lease and knows why the rules are there in the first place. A renter can ambush an uniformed property owner at a moment of ignorance causing the property owner to give into a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to what appears to be simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is a higher authority to appeal to, the renter will appeal every question to the owner, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

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

 

We're paid to be your protect the landlord's interests. It's more difficult to achieve that goal when the tenant is going to ask the rental investor to second-guess our work.
