Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that any property management expert in Flint Hill performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the landlord. The best practice is for the owner to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for rental investors: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

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

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

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