Run your commercial property business smoothly with integrated solutions

The time of being an absentee landlord or manager in the commercial real estate industry is over. The experience that your property provides for tenants influences retention, occupancy levels and business performance. A reliable, top-of-the-line tenant experience is shaped by how efficiently your back office is operating, how your business responds to challenges, and how you position the organization for future growth.

The best way to stay ahead of your competition is to run your commercial property well, ensuring that your tenants have a superior experience and that the business is prepared for the future.

Live up to the lease agreement

Adhering to the lease agreement is a process that goes both ways – while commercial properties need the right tenants to fill the space, property and facilities managers are responsible for maintaining an experience that meets the needs of their tenants. Providing a well-maintained space, timely responses to work orders and limiting the need for additional services is all part of running your property smoothly. Empowering tenants with self-service tools such as online payment options and an easy-to-use maintenance request system can also help set the standard for good landlord/tenant interactions.

Align budget, financials, and long-term strategy

Managing your property operations goes beyond the surface-level tasks that can be accomplished and checked off a list, however. Stepping back to examine your property operations and financials at a high level is more important than ever when it comes to understanding where money may be slipping through the cracks.

In many areas, automating your organization’s revenue-generating tasks, such as your lease clauses, break points, and recoveries can tighten up the way your properties run and capture more profit. This kind of automation can enable your staff to work more efficiently and effectively, and it allows you to easily accommodate variable lease types and drive tenant renewals.
