The Problem

Problem: Tenants increasingly expect digital conveniences such as online applications, instant payments, and quick mobile maintenance requests, while landlords want clear reporting and financial visibility. This dual demand puts significant pressure on property managers, who must juggle rapid communication across email, text, and portals, as well as keep financial records up to dateβ€”often resulting in administrative overwhelm.
