Communications With The Tenant

One of the most critical services that your property management professional in Broadway performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the property owner. The best practice is for the property owner to deny any direct contact with the renter. Important tip for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Broadway often ask to break lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the rules are there. A tenant can catch an uniformed owner at a moment of weakness causing the property owner to give into a request that is counter to the rental investor's own interests.

The result of giving into a seemingly simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take every question to the owner, which cost the owner time and effort.

Tenants will use contact with the owner to build a personal relationship with the owner. 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 landlord at odd hours or with various requests.
