Example workflow

How a high-intent call should flow for property management

Valory is configured around the calls your team already receives: what to ask, what to avoid, where to route the summary, and when a human needs to step in.

Call type

Tenant maintenance, landlord, leasing, or after-hours emergency call

A tenant reports no hot water after hours, a landlord wants an update, or a prospect asks about an inspection while the PM is off site.

Handoff summary

Valory separates routine and urgent calls, captures property details, issue type, access notes, photos or callback preference, and escalation path.

Common concern

Will urgent maintenance sit in a message queue?

No. Urgent patterns can trigger your on-call rules immediately while routine maintenance and leasing calls are logged for business-hours follow-up.

Estimate = missed calls per week × 4.33 weeks × estimated conversion rate × average transaction value. Call and booking estimates are rounded to whole numbers, while revenue uses coarser rounding as the estimate grows. The model assumes missed callers are not recovered; actual outcomes vary.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before getting started

What does a property management answering service do?
It answers inbound calls on your agency number when your team is busy, off-site, or after hours. Callers reach a professional AI phone agent that captures maintenance details, leasing enquiries, landlord messages, and urgent issues using your scripts, then sends structured notes to your property managers by SMS, email, or handoff.
Is this the same as a traditional call centre for property managers?
No. Valory is configured around your team's workflows, not generic message taking. It follows your triage rules for maintenance, leasing, and landlord calls, captures the fields your PMs need for PropertyMe, Console Cloud, or email workflows, and escalates emergencies immediately based on your playbook.
Can a property management answering service handle after-hours emergencies?
Yes. Urgent call types such as flooding, lock-outs, or no hot water can trigger instant alerts to your on-call contact or emergency trades, while routine jobs are logged for the next business day. Safety-critical language, such as directing callers to 000 for fire or gas, is built into the flow.
Will tenants know they are speaking to an AI?
Call flows are configured to be transparent and professional. Most agencies position Valory as the agency's phone assistant that logs requests and arranges follow-up. The goal is faster acknowledgment and cleaner handoffs, not impersonating a specific staff member.
How does this help with leasing enquiries in a tight rental market?
Leasing calls are time-sensitive. The service captures caller details, property interest, and inspection preferences immediately so your team can respond while the prospect is still engaged. Speed of first response is often the difference between securing an application and losing the enquiry to another agency.
Why do property managers miss calls during inspections?
Managers are often off-site for routine and entry/exit inspections when tenant, landlord, and leasing calls arrive. Valory answers immediately, captures maintenance or leasing details with the fields your PMs need, and escalates true emergencies to on-call contacts instead of leaving callers in voicemail.
