Communications With The Tenant

One of the important services that a property management expert in Woodville performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the landlord to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for property owners: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Woodville typically ask to change lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property manager knows the lease and knows why the rules exist. A renter can catch an uniformed owner at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to grant a request that is against the landlord's own interests.

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

Renters will use contact with the owner 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 tenant can hound or harass a property owner at strange hours or with various requests.
