Communications With The Tenant

One of the primary services that a property manager in White Post performs is providing a level of separation between the renter and the owner. The best practice is for the property owner to avoid any direct contact with the renter. Important advice for landlords: avoid sharing your contact information with the tenant.

Tenants in White Post will often ask to change rules, or ask for other special requests. The property manager knows the rules and knows why the lease provisions are there in the first place. A tenant can catch an uniformed rental investor at a moment of ignorance causing the property owner to give into a request that is counter to the owner's own interests.

The consequence of giving into a seemingly simple favor can be a disaster in the long run. Furthermore, once the renter believes there is an opportunity to appeal, the renter will appeal every question to the rental investor, which cost the landlord time and effort.

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

 

We're paid to be your defend the rental investor's interests. It's more difficult to achieve that goal when the renter is going to ask the landlord to second-guess our work.
