Communications With The Tenant

Handling interactions with a tenant in Orkney Springs

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

Renters in Orkney Springs may ask to bend lease provisions, or ask for other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the rules are there in the first place. A renter can catch an uniformed owner at a moment of weakness causing the property owner to give into a request that is counter to the property owner's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to a seemingly simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is a higher authority to appeal to, the tenant will take all matters to the property owner, which cost the property owner time and effort.

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