Communications With The Tenant

One of the important services that your property management professional in Glenkirk Estates performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the rental investor. The best practice is for the rental investor to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for owners: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Glenkirk Estates typically ask to bend lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there in the first place. A renter can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to give into a request that is counter to the landlord's own interests.

The result of acceding to a seemingly simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is a higher authority to appeal to, the renter will take every question to the rental investor, which cost the owner time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the owner to build a personal relationship with the property 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 rental investor at strange hours or with unreasonable requests.
