Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that a property management expert in Gainesville performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the owner. The best practice is for the owner to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for property owners: never share your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Gainesville may ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the landlord to grant a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

The result of giving into what appears to be simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take every question to the rental investor, which cost the owner time and effort.

Renters 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 renter can hound or harass a owner at unreasonable hours or with unreasonable requests.

 

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