The Challenge

Urban Residential's manual onboarding process was creating a poor first impression for new tenants. Each move-in required 5+ hours of coordination, with frequent missed steps leading to frustrated tenants and negative reviews.

Operational Challenges

  • 5+ hours per tenant onboarding
  • Inconsistent information delivery
  • Frequent missed steps in process
  • Manual utility coordination

Tenant Experience

  • 3.2/5 average satisfaction score
  • Confusion about move-in logistics
  • Delayed access to portals and info
  • Negative first impressions

The Solution

AutomatePM created a comprehensive digital-first onboarding workflow that guides tenants through every step from lease signing to move-in day.

Automated Welcome Journey

Personalized welcome sequence triggered upon lease signing, delivering all essential information at optimal times.

Smart Check-In System

The Results

"Our tenant satisfaction scores went from 3.2 to 4.8 overnight. New residents love how smooth and professional the move-in process is now. We've cut onboarding time from 5 hours to just 30 minutes per tenant, and it shows in our reviews."
