Around my home town I noticed that a local property management company has started posting signs on the front of the buildings they manage with their company name and phone number.  They manage a lot of student rentals, and there has been some of controversy lately over student parties, so I think they are doing this to placate the neighborhood association.  It seems like a good idea because disgruntled neighbors might complain to the manager rather than the police.  But I was wondering -- is posting your phone number on the outside of a rental property a common practice for property managers? Are there any reasons NOT to do it? -- Kim
