Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important duties that any property management professional in Gore performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the owner. The best practice is for the landlord to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Gore may ask to break rules, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A renter can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the owner to grant a request that is counter to the property owner's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take all matters to the rental investor, which cost the rental investor 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 rental investor to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a rental investor at strange hours or with crazy requests.

 

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