Communications With The Tenant

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

Tenants in Woodville will often ask to change lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions exist. A renter can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to grant a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take every question to the owner, which cost the landlord time and effort.

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