Communications With The Tenant

One of the important duties that any property management professional in Catharpin performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the property owner to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for owners: never share your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Catharpin may ask to break rules, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the lease and knows why the lease provisions are there. A tenant can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the owner to give into a request that is against the owner's own interests.

The consequence of giving into what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the tenant will take every question to the landlord, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

Tenants 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 strange hours or with various requests.

 

We're paid to be your defend the landlord's interests. It's harder to achieve that goal when the tenant is going to ask the owner to overrule our work.
