Communications With The Tenant

Handling interactions with a renter in Clifton

One of the important services that your property management expert in Clifton 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 tip for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Clifton may ask to bend rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there in the first place. A tenant can ambush an uniformed landlord at a moment of weakness causing the owner to grant a request that is counter to the property owner's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to a seemingly simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will take all matters to the property owner, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

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