Communications With The Tenant

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

Tenants in Bristow often ask to change rules, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the rules are there in the first place. A tenant can catch an uniformed landlord at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to grant a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to what appears to be simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take every question to the landlord, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

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

 

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