Landlord-Tenant Relationship

The main issue that evolves when an owner manages their own investment property is that what should be a business relationship between a landlord and a tenant, can quickly turn into a relationship that becomes personalized, making it very difficult for the landlord to enforce the lease provisions.

Tenants view the professional property manager as a business person. When enforcing lease provisions, they are less likely to become offended or hostile because they understand it is a business relationship only.
