Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important duties that your property manager in Whitlers Creek Ii performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the owner. The best practice is for the landlord to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for owners: never share your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Whitlers Creek Ii typically ask to change lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there. A renter can catch an uniformed property owner at a moment of weakness causing the landlord to grant a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will appeal every question to the landlord, which cost the landlord time and effort.

Tenants will use contact with the landlord 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 property owner at unreasonable hours or with unreasonable requests.
