Communications With The Tenant

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

Tenants in Baileys Crossroads may ask to bend rules, or make other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to give into a request that is against the rental investor's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take all matters to the property owner, which cost the property owner time and effort.

Tenants 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 odd hours or with crazy requests.

 

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