Communications With The Tenant

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

Renters in Burke often ask to bend rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the rules exist. A renter can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the rental investor to give into a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take every question to the property owner, which cost the landlord time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the rental investor to build a personal relationship with the rental investor. Personal feelings can make it much harder for the owner 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.

 

We're paid to be your protect the property owner's interests. It's more difficult to achieve that goal when the renter is going to ask the rental investor to overrule our work.
