Boost Retention

The High Price of "New"

Many landlords chase higher rents by letting tenants leave. But when you factor in vacancy loss, painting, cleaning, and marketing fees, a $100 rent increase might take 3 years to break even on the turnover cost.

This calculator proves that keeping a good tenant, even at slightly below-market rent, is often more profitable than churning them.

Communication = Retention

Tenants leave because they feel neglected. A maintenance request that takes 3 days to acknowledge is a reason to move. Rapid response makes tenants feel valued and "sticky."

Automating Tenant Happiness

Use Growth Automations to send automated check-ins: "How is everything in the unit?" 3 months before lease renewal. Catching small issues early prevents them from becoming reasons to leave. An AI Receptionist ensures their maintenance calls are answered 24/7, creating a premium service experience.
