Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical services that a property management professional in Whitfield Green performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the landlord to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Whitfield Green typically ask to break rules, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there. A renter can ambush an uniformed property owner at a moment of ignorance causing the owner to grant a request that is against the rental investor'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 renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal every question to the property owner, which cost the property owner time and effort.

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