Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary services that any property manager in Clarendon performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the property owner. The best practice is for the landlord to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for owners: never share your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Clarendon 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 tenant can ambush an uniformed property owner at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to grant a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to a seemingly simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will appeal all matters to the owner, which cost the rental investor 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 rental investor at unreasonable hours or with various requests.
