Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important duties that your property management professional in Lorton_town_cntr_landbay 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 tenant. Important tip for property owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Lorton_town_cntr_landbay typically ask to break rules, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A renter can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the owner to give into a request that is against the rental investor's own interests.

The result of giving into what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take all matters to the rental investor, which cost the landlord time and effort.

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

 

We're paid to be your defend the rental investor's interests. It's more difficult to do that job when the renter is going to ask the landlord to overrule our work.
