Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that any property manager in Seven Corners performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the owner to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for property owners: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Seven Corners often ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the rules are there in the first place. A tenant can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to give into a request that is against the property owner's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take every question to the rental investor, which cost the landlord time and effort.

Tenants will use contact with the property owner to build a personal relationship with the landlord. 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.

 

We're paid to be your defend the property owner's interests. It's harder to achieve that goal when the tenant is going to ask the owner to overrule our work.
