Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary services that a property management expert in Page County 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 tip for landlords: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Page County will often ask to bend rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed owner at a moment of weakness causing the landlord to give into a request that is against the landlord's own interests.

The result of acceding to what appears to be simple favor can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will appeal all matters to the owner, which cost the property owner time and effort.

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