Communications With The Tenant

One of the important duties that a property manager in Woodbury Heights 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 rental investors: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Woodbury Heights may ask to change lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules exist. A tenant can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the owner to give into a request that is against the property owner's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to what appears to be simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal all matters to the rental investor, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the landlord to build a personal relationship with the rental investor. 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 landlord at odd hours or with various requests.

 

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