Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that a property management expert in Page County performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the property owner. The best practice is for the landlord to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important advice for rental investors: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

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

The consequence of giving into 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 take all matters to the owner, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

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