Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical services that a property management expert in Sligo Estates performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the landlord. The best practice is for the rental investor to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important advice for property owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Sligo Estates often ask to break rules, or make other special requests. The property management professional 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 landlord to grant a request that is against the property owner's own interests.

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

Renters 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 landlord at strange hours or with crazy requests.
