Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that a property management professional in Ranchette Estates performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the rental investor. The best practice is for the owner to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for landlords: never share your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Ranchette Estates typically ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property manager 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 weakness causing the property owner to grant a request that is against 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 knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal all matters to the owner, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

Tenants will use contact with the rental investor 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 property owner at odd hours or with various requests.

 

We're paid to be your defend the property owner's interests. It's more difficult to do that job when the renter is going to ask the owner to second-guess our work.
