Oklahoma Property Management and Tenant Disputes

 

When tenants get into disputes with each other, it can seem like a lose-lose scenario. One or both parties will likely end up unhappy, and part of the blame is going to fall on you. While some situations are not going to end nicely no matter what, there are some ways you can make it work out better for you.

 

First, remember that it is not truly your responsibility to settle the dispute. Unless one of your tenants is in violation of the lease agreement, you are not obliged to step in. However, making an effort to address the situation can be very helpful in terms of tenant satisfaction, and it may prevent the tenant taking the situation into his or her own hands.

 

First, see if the dispute involves illegal activity or a violation of the lease agreement. If it does, this can provide you with a simple way to address the issue without becoming too active or taking sides. If illegal activity is at the heart of the issue, encourage neighbors to report the activity to authorities. If not, recommending that the participants work through a mediator can be a helpful way to reach a compromise.

 

If you need help amending your lease to address problematic issues, or you're having trouble with a particularly thorny tenant-to-tenant problem, consider talking to anOklahoma property management company. Specialists in tenant relations can smooth out the issue and help you set guidelines in place to prevent the same issues in the future.
