Artificial intelligence (AI) has taken countless industries by storm, and property management is no exception.

Gone are the days of landlords and property managers manually tracking rent payments, receiving maintenance phone calls, and juggling their accounting and bookkeeping tasks with piles of papers or dozens of spreadsheets. 

Now many of these manual tasks can be fully or semi-automated with the power of AI so that you can save time and money and reallocate those resources to other things that matter: growing your business or simply living your life.

If you’re wondering just how exactly property managers have adopted AI in their processes, then DoorLoop has you covered. 

We reached out to a plethora of property management experts to learn about their use of this cutting-edge technology, and we’ve compiled some of their best insights and tips here so that you, too, can automate your business and take its efficiency to new heights.

2. AI saves time and can write property descriptions - Chris Engelsman, Director of Marketing at All Seasons Resort Lodging

Bio: Chris is the Director of Marketing at All Seasons Resort Lodging, a company that manages vacation rental properties in Park City, Santa Fe, and San Diego.

When you manage a ton of properties, writing property description after property description can be not only time-consuming but also difficult. When units are in the same building, it can be a big challenge to actually make their descriptions sound different and still interesting.

This is where Chris has used AI at All Seasons Resort Lodging. 

Currently Chris’s team is undergoing the tedious task of rewriting all their property descriptions. 

Thankfully, AI has been there for them throughout this process. Chris comments, “[AI has] helped us tremendously in time saving, and in creativity.”

Peter has adopted AI for various aspects of his property management business:

  • Rent collection
  • Tenant communication
  • Fraud detection
  • Tenant screening
  • Rental rate optimization

Since using AI, Peter has seen a “tremendous improvement in efficiency and accuracy” for his business. 

Thanks to the automation AI provides, Peter has been able to offload many day-to-day tasks and instead focus his efforts on more hands-on responsibilities like tenant onboarding and maintenance. He has also been able to maximize his profits and quickly identify tenants who may be a risk.

Looking toward the future, Peter says, “Overall, AI has been a great asset to my property management business and I'm excited to see what other opportunities it can bring.”
