Communications With The Tenant

Handling interactions with a tenant in Blandsford

One of the most important services that a property management expert in Blandsford performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the rental investor. The best practice is for the property owner to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for property owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Blandsford will often ask to bend rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the rules are there. A renter can catch an uniformed landlord at a moment of weakness causing the landlord to give into a request that is counter to the property owner's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will appeal all matters to the owner, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the property owner to build a personal relationship with the landlord. 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.
