What you get back, every month

3.5 hrs

of your team's time back, with every one of 7 after-hours calls answered 24/7 and ~1 unnecessary trip avoided.

On cost, that is about $350/mo less than your after-hours line runs today, roughly $4,200 a year.

An estimate from your inputs, not a measured outcome or a quote. Defaults are deliberately conservative.

Every number,
and where it comes from.

  • Call volume seeds at 1 after-hours call per 15 doors per month, below the rate published benchmarks imply (Property Meld: ~0.4 work orders per door per month, at least 10% generating an after-hours dispatch).
  • Staff time defaults to 30 minutes per call. Property Meld estimates 60 to 90 minutes of next-morning recovery alone.
  • Loaded wage defaults to $43/hr: BLS May 2024 median for property managers ($32.07) plus a 35% benefits load.
  • Answering service held flat at $300/mo, the middle of typical $129 to $470 message-taking plans.
  • Avoided trips priced at ~$200 each, the low end of after-hours vendor rates (1.5 to 2x standard).
  • Rentive is standard list pricing: $3.00 per door per month through 500 doors and $2.50 per door above that, $299/mo minimum, no platform fee.

We left things out that all favor Rentive: daytime overflow calls it also answers, 2am wake-ups, on-call burnout, and missed-call leakage into move-outs. Full model with source URLs on request: support@rentive.ai.
