Unpaid property management tasks for tenants
🏠 homesocial problemSingle report ●●●●●
A tenant who works from home reports that their property manager frequently asks them to perform tasks like receiving deliveries or showing rooms to prospective tenants without compensation, and they are unsure how to transition this arrangement to a paid service without damaging the relationship.
What people do today
- Agreeing to the requests to maintain harmony
- Ignoring the requests
- Drafting a formal proposal for paid services
🔧 Fix this
Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:
- A template generator for tenants to formalize 'property assistant' agreements with landlords.
- A mobile app for property managers to log and assign tasks to tenants with pre-set compensation rates.
- A guide on professional boundary setting for tenants living in managed properties.
Real voices
“I work from home. If I am paid I am OK with this. If I am not paid then the property manager should be doing it as it is what he is paid to do.”
