Communications With The Tenant

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

Renters in Burke may ask to break rules, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there. A renter can ambush an uniformed landlord at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to give into a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to a seemingly simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal all matters to the rental investor, which cost the rental investor 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 property owner to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the tenant can hound or harass a property owner at odd hours or with crazy requests.
