Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical duties that your property management expert in Ravensworth performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the owner to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for rental investors: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Ravensworth will often ask to break lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the rules exist. A renter can ambush an uniformed landlord at a moment of ignorance causing the property owner to give into a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to a seemingly simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will take all matters to the landlord, which cost the owner time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the property 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 various requests.

 

We're paid to be your defend the owner's interests. It's more difficult to achieve that goal when the tenant is going to ask the property owner to overrule our work.
