Central communication portal for real estate management

Central and intuitive platform,

22 December 2023

Running a property management company efficiently can be nerve-wracking! Expectations regarding service quality and the range of services offered are constantly increasing. Tenants and owners expect ever better accessibility, ideally around the clock, and faster communication in a wide variety of channels such as telephone, email, portal, fax, etc. To ensure this, property management companies are currently planning significant price increases, as Der Spiegel reports. However, price increases can only partially contribute to solving this problem. Increasingly, property management companies are therefore looking for ways to increase internal efficiency in order to meet the growing demands of their customers and the increasing legal requirements. Here, a central communication portal can significantly reduce internal efforts. When property management communicates with owners, tenants and service providers on a central platform, it also has the advantage of being able to document all processes and make them traceable. Media discontinuities and multiple efforts are thus effectively avoided. In addition to increasing productivity, this consolidated communication of all channels on one platform (multi-channel communication) significantly increases the quality of service in property management.
