Communications With The Tenant

One of the important services that any property management professional in Warren County performs is providing a level of separation between the tenant and the owner. The best practice is for the owner to deny any direct contact with the tenant. Important advice for landlords: never share your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Warren County often ask to break rules, or ask for other special requests. The property management professional knows the lease and knows why the rules are there in the first place. A tenant can ambush an uniformed rental investor at a moment of weakness causing the property owner to grant a request that is counter to the landlord's own interests.

The consequence of acceding to what appears to be simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter knows there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will take every question to the owner, which cost the landlord time and effort.

Tenants will use contact with the rental investor 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 property owner at odd hours or with various requests.
