Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important services that a property management professional in Hampton Square Condominiums 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 renter. Important advice for rental investors: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Hampton Square Condominiums typically ask to bend rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to grant a request that is against the rental investor's own interests.

The result of giving into what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take all matters to the landlord, which cost the property owner time and effort.

Tenants will use contact with the landlord to build a personal relationship with the rental investor. 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 rental investor at unreasonable hours or with various requests.
