Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important services that your property management expert in Basye performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the property owner to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for property owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Basye typically ask to break rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A renter can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the property owner to grant a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to a seemingly simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is a higher authority to appeal to, the renter will take every question to the landlord, which cost the property owner time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the property 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 landlord at strange hours or with crazy requests.
