Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important duties that your property management expert in Fort Valley performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the rental investor to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in Fort Valley will often ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions exist. A tenant can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the landlord to grant a request that is counter to the property owner's own interests.

The consequence of giving into what appears to be simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant believes there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will take all matters to the property owner, which cost the rental investor time and effort.

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