Communications With The Tenant

One of the important duties that any property management professional in Little River Sq Cond performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the landlord. The best practice is for the owner to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Little River Sq Cond often ask to break lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A tenant can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to give into a request that is counter to the landlord's own interests.

The consequence of giving into what appears to be simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant knows 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 owner to build a personal relationship with the rental investor. 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 rental investor at unreasonable hours or with unreasonable requests.
