Contactless Rental Is the Future of Property Management
Before the pandemic, owning a rental property where management and staff had regular contact with current and prospective residents was considered a good thing. It meant you were attentive to your tenants’ needs and had plenty of people interested in occupying vacant units. Amid a pandemic, however, that level of contact is viewed in a different light.
Things that once seemed trivial, such as sharing keys for work orders or showing empty apartments to possible renters, are now potential ways to spread disease — something both residents and staff members want to avoid as much as possible. Luckily, technology makes it possible to do more than find workarounds for existing procedures; it gives managers and owners the ability to transcend those procedures.
That might sound like hyperbole, but there are simply better ways to do things in the modern age. In many cases, the pandemic has pushed those methods to the forefront. Using the right technology, owners and managers can remove the need for staff and residents to be physically together throughout the rental process. Everything from first seeing an apartment to performing routine maintenance to handling move-out can be done without contact and without residents rearranging their schedules.
A contactless rental experience isn’t just something that can get you through the pandemic safely — it can create a better future for residents and staff alike.
