Communications With The Tenant

Handling interactions with a renter in Antietam Square I Ii

One of the primary services that any property management professional in Antietam Square I Ii performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the rental investor. The best practice is for the owner to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for rental investors: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Antietam Square I Ii may ask to break 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 tenant can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the property owner to grant a request that is counter to the property owner's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take all matters to the rental investor, which cost the owner time and effort.

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

 

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