Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important services that your property management professional in Bristow performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the rental investor. The best practice is for the landlord to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for property owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Bristow may ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there. A renter can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the owner to give into a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take all matters to the owner, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the rental investor to build a personal relationship with the owner. Personal feelings can make it much harder for the owner to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the renter can hound or harass a rental investor at odd hours or with crazy requests.
