Communications With The Tenant

One of the important services that your property manager in Pohick_estates 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 tip for landlords: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Pohick_estates often ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules exist. A renter can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the owner to grant a request that is counter to the landlord's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to a seemingly simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter believes there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will take every question to the property owner, which cost the owner time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the owner 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 renter can hound or harass a rental investor at unreasonable hours or with unreasonable requests.
