Handling interactions with a renter in Kingstowne
One of the primary services that any property manager in Kingstowne performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the owner. The best practice is for the owner to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important advice for owners: never share your contact information with the tenant.
Tenants in Kingstowne typically ask to break rules, or ask for other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules are there in the first place. A tenant can catch an uniformed property owner 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 what appears to be simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will appeal all matters to the rental investor, which cost the property 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 property owner at unreasonable hours or with crazy requests.
We're paid to be your defend the rental investor's interests. It's harder to achieve that goal when the renter is going to ask the property owner to overrule our work.
