Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical duties that a property management professional in Maurertown performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the rental investor. The best practice is for the rental investor to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Maurertown will often ask to change rules, 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 property owner at a moment of weakness causing the rental investor to give into a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

The result of acceding to a seemingly simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal every question to the property owner, which cost the landlord time and effort.

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

 

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