Industry Challenges

Challenges Property Managers Face Daily

Understanding the unique pressures of property manager businesses helps us deliver better solutions.

After-Hours Emergency Calls

Property emergencies like burst pipes, heating failures, or security concerns happen at all hours. Tenants expect immediate response regardless of the time, and delayed responses can lead to property damage, liability issues, and tenant dissatisfaction.

Property managers report losing an average of 3-5 quality tenants annually due to poor emergency response, costing thousands in turnover expenses and vacancy losses.

High Call Volume During Peak Periods

The first week of each month brings a flood of rent-related calls, while lease renewal seasons and maintenance emergencies create unpredictable call spikes. Managing these peaks while handling property inspections is nearly impossible.

Studies show property managers miss up to 40% of incoming calls during peak periods, leading to frustrated tenants and lost prospective tenant inquiries.

Balancing Multiple Properties

Managing portfolios across different locations means constant juggling between site visits, owner meetings, and phone accessibility. Being physically present at properties while remaining available by phone creates an unsustainable workload.

Property managers spend an average of 2-3 hours daily just returning missed calls, time that could be spent on revenue-generating activities like property acquisition.
