Communications With The Tenant

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

Tenants in Hinton typically ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules exist. A tenant can ambush an uniformed owner at a moment of ignorance causing the owner to grant a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will take every question to the rental investor, which cost the owner time and effort.

Renters will use contact with the landlord to build a personal relationship with the landlord. 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 landlord at unreasonable hours or with various requests.

 

We're paid to be your defend the rental investor's interests. It's harder to do that job when the tenant is going to ask the property owner to second-guess our work.
