Build a tenant portal — rent payment, maintenance, and communication in one place.

A tenant portal reduces the volume of inbound calls and emails to your property management office. Tenants pay rent online, submit maintenance requests, access their lease documents, and get communication — without calling you.

The problem
Property manager who handles tenant communication manually and wants to give tenants self-service access to rent payment, maintenance, and documents

Without a tenant portal, every rent payment is a manual process — check by mail, bank transfer with manual matching, or a phone call. Every maintenance request is an email or call that needs to be transcribed into a work order. Every lease question is answered by looking up the file.

Volume of tenant communications without a portal: A property manager with 50 units handles 200+ inbound contacts per month — rent questions, maintenance requests, lease questions, move-in/move-out logistics. Most of these are resolved by the tenant themselves with a portal.

What a tenant portal eliminates:

  • "Did you receive my rent check?" — replaced by payment confirmation email
  • "I have a maintenance issue" — replaced by structured request form
  • "Can you send me my lease?" — replaced by document library
  • "When does my lease expire?" — visible in tenant dashboard

Process

Three steps, every time.

The same repeatable engagement on every project. No surprises, no mystery, no billable ambiguity.

01Week 0

Brief & discovery.

We send you questions, then get on a call. Output: a written scope with every step, feature, and integration listed.

02Weeks 1–N

Build & ship.

Fixed schedule, weekly reviews. No scope creep unless you change the scope — and if you do, we reprice it transparently.

03Post-launch

Warranty & retainer.

30-day warranty on every launch. Most clients stay on a monthly retainer for ongoing features and maintenance.
