Tenant Self-Service Portal and Property Management Platform
Real Estate
What They Were Facing
Elevate managed 14,000 residential units across 85 properties with tenant interactions handled entirely through phone calls, paper work orders, and manual lease administration. Maintenance requests averaged a 72-hour response time, lease renewals were tracked in spreadsheets, and the property management team spent 40% of their time on administrative tasks. Tenant satisfaction had dropped to 3.1 out of 5 stars, and annual turnover was 38% — well above the industry average of 28% — costing $8.4M in make-ready and vacancy losses.
How We Solved It
AQBEE built a comprehensive property management and tenant engagement platform on Salesforce. Service Cloud managed maintenance requests with intelligent routing to the appropriate vendor or in-house technician based on issue type, property, and priority. An Experience Cloud tenant portal enabled self-service maintenance requests with photo uploads, real-time status tracking, rent payments, lease renewal processing, and community announcements. Marketing Cloud automated tenant lifecycle communications including move-in onboarding, satisfaction surveys, renewal reminders, and retention offers. Flow Automation orchestrated the full maintenance workflow from request through vendor dispatch, completion verification, and tenant follow-up. MuleSoft integrated the property accounting system and vendor management platform. Tableau dashboards tracked property performance, maintenance SLAs, and tenant satisfaction at every level.
The Impact
Intelligent routing and automated dispatch reduced average maintenance response time from 72 hours to 8 hours.
Improved service, self-service tools, and proactive retention campaigns reduced annual tenant turnover from 38% to 24%, saving $5.6M.
Self-service portal, faster maintenance, and proactive communication lifted tenant satisfaction from 3.1 to 4.4 out of 5 stars.
Automation of lease administration, maintenance dispatch, and tenant communications freed 40% of property management staff time.
“Our tenants used to call us for everything — a leaky faucet, a rent question, a lease renewal. Now they handle it all on the portal, and when they do submit a maintenance request, our system dispatches the right vendor automatically. Turnover dropped 14 points, satisfaction went from 3.1 to 4.4 stars, and we saved $5.6M in vacancy costs. AQBEE transformed how we manage 14,000 units.”
