Shared service centers and BPOs do not scale economically
Per-call and per-FTE pricing models punish growth. Adding portfolios means adding agents, training, and QA overhead — at $20 to $40 per qualified lead handled.
Frontdesk is property management call center AI that consolidates your shared service center, BPO, and overflow vendors into one 24/7 AI contact center — handling prospect calls, resident maintenance, delinquency outreach, and renewals across Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, and ResMan.

The Problem
Per-call and per-FTE pricing models punish growth. Adding portfolios means adding agents, training, and QA overhead — at $20 to $40 per qualified lead handled.
Contact center agents juggle 20 to 100 communities. Floor plans, pricing tiers, pet policy, parking, and current specials drift quickly — and agents fall back on transfers or callbacks.
ILS lead volume from Zillow, Apartments.com, Apartment List, and Rent. spikes in evenings and weekends. Contact centers queue calls, ring through to voicemail, or escalate to leasing offices that are closed.
Most contact centers focus on leasing. Maintenance triage, delinquency outreach, and renewal campaigns require additional vendors, in-office staff, or separate contracts.
How Frontdesk Works
Built for multifamily operators on Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, ResMan — and every other major PMS.

What this page covers
Topics, integrations, channels, property types, and workflows covered by Multifamily Contact Center AI.
Multifamily operators searching for multifamily contact center AI, apartment contact center automation, or property management call center AI are typically running shared service centers, BPO contracts (Sutherland, TaskUs, Concentrix), or LeaseHawk LIVE — and trying to cut cost-per-call while improving speed-to-lead and resident NPS. Frontdesk replaces the contact center entirely or augments it as overflow, handling inbound and outbound voice, SMS, chat, and email across conventional multifamily, BTR, SFR, student housing, senior living, affordable, and military housing portfolios.
