Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary services that a property manager in Edinburg performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the landlord to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Renters in Edinburg will often ask to change rules, or make other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions exist. A tenant can ambush an uniformed landlord at a moment of ignorance causing the rental investor to give into a request that is against the rental investor's own interests.

The result of giving into what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take all matters to the landlord, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

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

 

We're paid to be your defend the owner's interests. It's more difficult to do that job when the tenant is going to ask the landlord to overrule our work.
