The Problem

Anniversaries pass without acknowledgement

A lease is one of the largest annual purchases a household makes. Most operators don't mark the 1-year mark in any way.

A free retention lever sits unused. Operators leave 5-10 points of renewal on the table.

Onsite teams "will get to it"

Anniversary cards and notes are talked about but rarely consistent across a portfolio.

The properties that need retention most are the ones whose teams are most overwhelmed.

Gift programs don't scale

Sending a gift card or branded item to every anniversary household is expensive and operationally painful at scale.

Operators either skip it entirely or run it inconsistently — both options corrode the program.

No measurement of renewal lift

Without tracking, operators can't tell whether anniversary outreach worked, so it never gets funded.

A proven retention play stays informal and underinvested.

How Frontdesk Works

01

Step 1

AI captures every prospect and resident interaction

Inbound voice calls, outbound AI voice, SMS, WhatsApp, web chat, email, ILS lead forms (Apartments.com, Zillow Rentals, Zumper, Rent.com, ApartmentList, HotPads, Realtor.com Rentals), and walk-in inquiries are answered instantly with portfolio-aware context — across multifamily apartment communities, build-to-rent (BTR), single-family rental (SFR), student housing, senior living, and affordable / LIHTC properties.

02

Step 2

Records sync to your PMS, CRM, and calendar

Guest cards, work orders, renewals, payment notes, hardship flags, and tour bookings flow into Yardi Voyager 7S, Yardi Breeze, RentCafe, RealPage OneSite, Knock CRM, Entrata Core, AppFolio Realm-X, Buildium, ResMan, Rent Manager, MRI Software, DoorLoop, TenantCloud, and Funnel CRM in real time. Calendar sync with Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, and PMS-native calendars. No double-entry.

03

Step 3

Automation runs follow-up across voice, SMS, and email

No-show recovery within 5 minutes, dormant-lead reactivation, 90/60/30/15-day renewal cadences, day-of-due rent reminders, tiered delinquency outreach, payment-plan negotiation, autopay enrollment, maintenance status updates, and Google review requests fire automatically — with the right cadence and channel per resident persona.

04

Step 4

Portfolio analytics surface what matters

Cross-property dashboards track speed-to-lead, tour-booked rate, tour-to-lease conversion, no-show rate, recovery rate, average maintenance SLA, emergency response time, renewal rate, delinquency reduction, payroll savings, and NOI impact — across every community. AI call scoring and QA flags replace mystery shopping.
