Communications With The Tenant

One of the important services that a property management professional in Seven Corners performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the property owner. The best practice is for the rental investor to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for rental investors: never share your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Seven Corners may ask to break rules, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions exist. A renter can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to give into a request that is against the rental investor's own interests.

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

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