Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that a property manager in Flint Hill performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the landlord. The best practice is for the landlord to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for landlords: never share your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Flint Hill often ask to bend rules, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions exist. A renter can ambush an uniformed landlord at a moment of ignorance causing the owner to give into a request that is against the property owner's own interests.

The consequence of giving into what appears to be simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take all matters to the landlord, which cost the owner time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the landlord to build a personal relationship with the owner. Personal feelings can make it much harder for the landlord to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the renter can hound or harass a property owner at strange hours or with crazy requests.
