When I was starting out as an
agent some years ago, I met some landlords who told me they are not allowing
agents to manage their property. I wondered why it was so. Later I started to understand their reasons. Some
tenants are poor ambassadors, so to speak.
Somehow, tenants represent your
image as an agent. If the tenant behave well and is loved by the landlord, then
the reputation and credibility of the
agent is enhanced. Thus, the landlord will always speak good of the agent and
want him to always take charge of his property. In this case, the landlord
will not accept any tenant unless
referred by his trusted agent.
THE FLIP SIDE OF THE SITUATION
The reputation of the agent is
damaged when the tenant involves in any or all of the following practices:
1.
Disrespecting the landlord
2. Quarreling and fighting all the time
3.
Keeping large company of friends
with questionable characters
4.
Poor maintenance culture
5.
Keeping late nights
6.
Smoking and drunkenness
In view of the foregoing, some landlords would no longer
have any business with the agent through whom the tenant rented the apartment. In
effect, the door is closed, and chances
ruined. As a real estate professional, I don’t want any tenant to tarnish my image before the
landlord, so please become a worthy ambassador.
