Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary duties that a property management expert in Warren County performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the rental investor. The best practice is for the owner to avoid any direct contact with the tenant. Important tip for owners: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Renters in Warren County may ask to bend lease provisions, or make other special requests. The property management expert knows the rules and knows why the rules are there in the first place. A tenant can catch an uniformed property owner at a moment of weakness causing the rental investor to grant a request that is against the rental investor's own interests.

The consequence of giving into a seemingly simple request can be disastrous. Furthermore, once the renter believes 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 landlord to make objective business decisions in a impersonal manner. Additionally, the renter can hound or harass a owner at unreasonable hours or with various requests.

 

We're paid to be your defend the property owner's interests. It's harder to achieve that goal when the tenant is going to ask the landlord to second-guess our work.
