Communications With The Tenant

One of the important services that your property manager in Franconia performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the rental investor. The best practice is for the landlord to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for rental investors: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Franconia often ask to bend lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there. A tenant can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the owner to grant a request that is counter to the rental investor'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 tenant believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take every question to the rental investor, which cost the owner time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the rental investor 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 rental investor at strange hours or with various requests.
