AI consulting for property management

Agents that run a real portfolio — because ours does

We are a property management company first. Our own Los Angeles portfolio runs every day on AI agents we built in-house — maintenance triage, leasing follow-up, delinquency, turn coordination, owner reporting. Now we help other management companies put the same kind of agents to work inside the systems they already use.

Why a management company — not a software vendor

We run what we sell

Our agents work in production every day on our own portfolio: work orders assigned and scheduled automatically, leads followed up within minutes, owners getting clearer reporting. This is operational software we depend on, not a demo.

Your stack, not a rip-and-replace

Agents integrate into AppFolio, Buildium, Yardi, or your spreadsheets and tools. You keep your system of record; the agents work inside it.

Your data can stay home

Because we can run open-source models on servers you control, your tenant and financial data never has to leave your infrastructure. Cloud or self-hosted — your choice.

Honest scoping

We tell you what agents do well, where a human stays in the loop, and what is not worth automating yet. If a build won't pay for itself, we say so.

What we build

AI readiness audit

A structured review of your workflows, software, and data. You leave with a prioritized automation map — even if you never buy anything.

Custom agent builds

Maintenance intake and triage, leasing lead follow-up, collections and delinquency workflows, tenant communications, owner reports, unit-turn coordination.

Integration

Connections into the systems you already run — property management software, email, SMS, spreadsheets — with human approval steps where they matter.

Calls, texts & chat

AI agents that answer your phone, respond to text messages, and chat with visitors on your website — maintenance calls triaged, leasing questions answered, showings booked. Calls and texts are billed per usage.

Care plan

Monthly model tuning, monitoring, fixes, and new workflows as your team asks for them. A named engineer who knows your setup.

Built for small portfolios and scattered sites, too

Most AI leasing tools are built for big apartment communities with a leasing office. If you run single-family rentals, duplexes, or a handful of units scattered across towns, you get the same treatment: agents sized to your operation, working inside the systems you already use, priced to match. And we scope honestly — at your size we'll say exactly what's worth automating and what isn't.

Go deeper

Six pages that go into the work in detail — the system-specific side, the agent-building side, leasing, and AI consulting in Los Angeles.

AppFolio AI automation

Agents that work inside AppFolio without replacing it — lead follow-up, maintenance triage, delinquency communication and owner reporting, with the flows shown end to end.

Buildium AI automation

Agents that work inside Buildium — including for smaller and scattered portfolios, where most AI tooling is priced and shaped for the enterprise end.

Read the Buildium page →

Yardi AI automation

Agents that work inside Yardi, scoped to your actual configuration — because no two Yardi instances expose the same thing.

Read the Yardi page →

Custom AI agents

What we mean by an agent — work done inside your systems, not questions answered in a window — plus the workflows we build and where a human stays in the loop.

Read the agents page →

AI leasing agent

Every enquiry answered in minutes rather than the next business day — qualified, a showing offered, and the conversation logged in your system.

AI consulting in Los Angeles

What “built by LA operators” means, why a local operator beats a generic AI agency, and the Los Angeles neighbourhoods our agents actually run in.
