Communications With The Tenant

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

Renters in Leewood Estates will often ask to break lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the rules are there in the first place. A tenant can ambush an uniformed owner at a moment of weakness causing the owner to give into a request that is counter to the property owner's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take every question to the property owner, which cost the owner time and effort.

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