Communications With The Tenant

Managing interactions with a renter in Page County

One of the most important services that your property manager in Page County performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the rental investor. The best practice is for the property owner to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for rental investors: never share your contact information with the tenant.

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

The consequence of giving into a seemingly simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is a higher authority to appeal to, the renter will take every question to the owner, which cost the landlord time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the owner to build a personal relationship with the rental investor. Personal feelings can make it much harder for the landlord to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a landlord at odd hours or with crazy requests.
