Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important duties that a property manager in James Lee Condo performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the owner to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in James Lee Condo typically ask to bend rules, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A tenant can catch an uniformed owner at a moment of ignorance causing the owner to grant a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to what appears to be simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal all matters to the owner, which cost the landlord time and effort.

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

 

We're paid to be your defend the owner's interests. It's harder to achieve that goal when the tenant is going to ask the property owner to second-guess our work.
