Communications With The Tenant

One of the important services that a property manager in Bristow performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the rental investor. The best practice is for the rental investor to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for rental investors: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Bristow may ask to break 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 owner at a moment of ignorance causing the owner to give into a request that is against the property owner's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal all matters to the owner, which cost the landlord time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the rental investor to build a personal relationship with the property owner. 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 landlord at strange hours or with unreasonable requests.
