Communications With The Tenant

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

Renters in Westmoreland_ter may ask to bend rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions exist. A tenant can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the rental investor to grant a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take all matters to the landlord, which cost the owner time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the landlord to build a personal relationship with the landlord. Personal feelings can make it much harder for the owner to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a owner at unreasonable hours or with various 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 landlord to second-guess our work.
