Communications With The Tenant

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

Tenants in Franklin Glen typically ask to bend rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there in the first place. A renter can ambush an uniformed landlord at a moment of weakness causing the rental investor 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 knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take all matters to the owner, which cost the owner time and effort.

Tenants will use contact with the property 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 renter can hound or harass a property owner at strange hours or with unreasonable requests.
