If you’ve ever felt like you’re running a part-time call center instead of managing properties, you’re not alone. Leasing calls tend to show up at the most inconvenient times for property managers—during dinner, in the middle of showings, even on weekends when you’re off the clock.
Buy what if we said you never had to answer a leasing call again?
Well, go ahead and put down the phone, because we’re about to show you how.
The Trick: Jump on the Automation Train
Three words for you: Automated. Lead. Management.
With an all-in-one leasing platform, you can set your leasing calls to get answered automatically. This means every lead—whether they call, email, or click on your listing—gets an instant response.
By automating the leasing process, you can spend your day catching up on property management tasks, having lunch with business partners, or even sailing in the Bahamas while your leasing management tool handles the follow-ups.
But What About Phone Calls?
With all this talk about leasing automation, how does it work for human interactions like phone calls?
That’s easy, actually. Whenever a potential tenant calls your listing phone number to inquire about one of your vacant properties, they reach an automated agent. They can then:
- Receive a text message with a link to schedule the viewing (70% of callers prefer this)
- Or choose not to receive texts, which routes them to an agent who walks them through the pre-qualification process
With this setup, your tenant leads still benefit from human interaction without you having to pick up the phone.
How Tenant Turner Works
Tenant Turner is an all-in-one leasing platform that's easy for solo property managers to use, or entire teams. It does a lot of the admin work for you, like:
- 24/7 Responses – Prospects get immediate answers, even if it’s past business hours
- Pre-Qualification - Just 26% of initial leads get approved for a showing, so you can save time working with only serious renters
- Fewer Interruptions – You can step away from the constant phone calls and have a breather
- No more lost leads – Every call, text, and email is responded to and documented
When responses, info collection, and pre qualification get put on autopilot, you can focus on your business — and the most qualified leads.
Bonus Trick: Automate Your Showings
When a potential renter passes your pre-qualifications, Tenant Turner can handle the scheduling, too. Renters pick an available time, confirm via text, and show up on their own, without you coordinating calendars or playing phone tag.
Self-showings are easy, safe, and preferred by the majority of today's renters. We'll even set you up with one of our preferred lockboxes, so you’ve got one less thing on your plate.
The Bottom Line
We hear you—answering leasing calls used to be part of every property manager’s job. While letting go of that responsibility may feel like an adjustment, don't worry. Whether you're a multi or single-family property manager, automating the leasing process is one of the easiest ways to free up more time while creating a better experience for you and your tenants.
Plus, when you’re no longer playing phone tag, think of all the time you can invest in your property management company, your tenants, and yourself.
