Communications With The Tenant

One of the most important duties that your property management expert in Maurertown performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the property owner. The best practice is for the property owner to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important advice for property owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the renter.

Tenants in Maurertown may ask to bend lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions exist. A renter can catch an uniformed landlord at a moment of weakness causing the landlord to give into a request that is counter to the landlord's own interests.

The result of giving into what appears to be simple request can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the tenant knows there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will appeal every question to the landlord, which cost the property owner time and effort.

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