Communications With The Tenant

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

Renters in Sunset_ridge often ask to bend lease provisions, or make 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 landlord to give into a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

The result of acceding to a seemingly simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take every question to the owner, which cost the property 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 rental investor to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a landlord at strange hours or with unreasonable requests.
