AUTOMATING MAINTENANCE. REDUCING COSTS.

What if your on-site teams could spend less time managing vendors, questioning invoices, and tracking work orders?

Lessen brings the maintenance process into one platform — automating, assigning, scheduling, and dispatching vendors while documenting the entire process with before-and-after photos.

James Sirmans unpacked how Lesssen uses real-world market data to evaluate pricing and labor. If a toilet replacement should cost $350, why are you being charged $500?

Add in consolidated vendor payments and one invoice instead of dozens or hundreds of checks, and the efficiencies start adding up quickly.

The result?

Lessen reports a 15–20% reduction in total maintenance costs across a portfolio.

Faster work orders. Better cost control. Less burden on on-site teams. And ultimately, happier residents. Listen to the complete offering using the LINK below in comments.

AI IS CHANGING UNDERWRITING

A big thank you to Jason Williams, Ph.D. from Ironclad Underwriting for joining us on ZOOM at 8 and demonstrating how AI is streamlining the underwriting process for multifamily investors.

Jason showcased how Ironclad can automatically parse Offering Memorandums, T-12s, and rent rolls, identify document mismatches, populate underwriting models, estimate CapEx costs using national benchmarks, and even flag potential risks like lease expirations. It's a powerful tool designed to save time while improving underwriting accuracy.

Interested in trying it? Ironclad is currently looking for beta testers. Visit ironcladunderwriting.com/beta-tester to learn more and sign up.

Find the entire conversation below in the comments. Hope to see you EVERY Tuesday night for ZOOM at 8!
