How PTAS Can Help Property Managers
You might, for example, have multiple property listings and begin receiving a high volume of call traffic for all those properties at once. Inevitably, you're going to miss answering one of those calls, which might mean a lost client and lost business. But with an answering service, every prospective client's call would be responded to, leading to booked appointments and potential new tenants.
Alternatively, you might have a current tenant call who needs immediate assistance after hours with a burst water pipe that's leaking into multiple apartments. If you miss that call, that could lead to damage in multiple properties, not to mention an upset tenant. An answering service, on the other hand, would have on-call operators who would answer that phone call and send help immediately to alleviate the situation, resulting in less damage and a satisfied tenant. In both situations, the operators would handle the immediate situation and keep you in the loop without requiring you to dedicate all of your time to fielding phone calls.
