Property ManagementMaintenance & Repair4HighProperty Manager$ implied

A property manager struggles to track maintenance requests across multiple units because tenant communications, contractor coordination, and repair records are scattered across WhatsApp, spreadsheets, emails, and phone notes, leading to missed repairs and cost overruns.

Existing solutions are fragmented, leading to lost information and lack of a centralized, simple system that doesn't cost $150/month or have excessive features.
