Hello,
I have a bit of an odd tenant relationship issue. We recently moved new tenants into one of our properties, and as always dropped off a small gift a few days after move-in to make sure everything worked out ok. We`re also approximately the same age as our tenants (mid-twenties) and we were polite (as always) during the interview process.
One of the tenants has sent me a "friend" request via Facebook.
I`m not totally sure how to deal with this, as I don`t want to be rude, but also don`t want to get overly personal with my tenants. I`m also potentially concerned about "jealousy" issues, as our lifestyle includes trips to relatively "exotic" locales that our tenant would be unable to afford, and those pictures end up on facebook so my family can see them.
What are all of your thoughts on the matter?
Michael
