Handling interactions with a renter in Lake Frederick
One of the primary services that your property management expert in Lake Frederick performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the landlord. The best practice is for the landlord to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important advice for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.
Renters in Lake Frederick will often ask to change rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the rules are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed landlord at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to grant a request that is counter to the landlord's own interests.
The consequence of giving into 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 take every question to the landlord, which cost the landlord time and effort.
Tenants will use contact with the rental investor to build a personal relationship with the owner. Personal feelings can make it much harder for the property owner to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a owner at unreasonable hours or with unreasonable requests.
We're paid to be your defend the property owner's interests. It's more difficult to achieve that goal when the tenant is going to ask the rental investor to overrule our work.
