Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important services that a property manager in Bristow performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the rental investor to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for owners: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Bristow will often ask to break lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there in the first place. A tenant can catch 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 consequence of giving into a seemingly simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will appeal every question to the owner, which cost the property 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 landlord to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a landlord at odd hours or with unreasonable requests.
