Resident Digital Experience for National SFR Portfolio

40%Reduction in inbound call volume

Designed and launched a resident-facing app and web portal for a national SFR operator, shifting the majority of resident interactions to self-service within one year.

The Challenge

Every resident interaction went through a call center. Paying rent, requesting maintenance, checking lease details, asking about move-out procedures. The operator had no self-service channel. Call volume scaled linearly with portfolio growth, and the support team was becoming a bottleneck. Residents expected a mobile-first experience and were not getting one.

Our Approach

We designed a resident app and web portal focused on the four highest-volume interactions: rent payments, maintenance requests, lease document access, and move-in/move-out coordination. The app connected directly to the back-office property management platform so updates appeared in real time on both sides. We rolled it out market by market with targeted onboarding campaigns to drive adoption.

Results
40% drop in inbound call volume within the first year
Residents handling rent payments, maintenance requests, and lease questions on their own
Real-time sync between the resident app and back-office systems, no manual updates
Onboarding flow that pushed adoption without forcing it on residents
