AI receptionist FAQ. Pricing, setup, and how it works.
What is an AI receptionist for property management?
An AI receptionist for property management is an intelligent virtual assistant that handles tenant and prospect calls 24/7. It processes maintenance requests, triages emergencies like water leaks and no-heat situations, captures leasing inquiries, schedules property tours, and integrates with property management software like AppFolio, Buildium, and Yardi. Unlike traditional answering services, our AI voice receptionist responds instantly, handles multiple calls simultaneously, and understands property management terminology.
Can the AI receptionist handle after-hours maintenance emergencies?
Yes. Our AI voice receptionist is specifically trained to detect urgent maintenance issues including water leaks, burst pipes, no heat/AC, electrical outages, lockouts, gas smell, and flooding. When an emergency is detected, the AI receptionist immediately notifies the on-call maintenance staff or emergency vendor via SMS and phone with full details including unit number, tenant contact, and issue description. Tenants receive confirmation that help is on the way.
How does the AI receptionist capture maintenance requests?
The AI receptionist collects comprehensive maintenance information including unit/address, detailed issue description, urgency level, access instructions (pet in unit, alarm code, permission to enter), best contact times, and photos if the tenant wants to send them. Requests are organized by priority and sent to the appropriate maintenance coordinator or vendor. Non-emergency requests are queued for next business day review.
Does the AI receptionist work for leasing inquiries?
Absolutely. Our AI receptionist answers questions about available units, pricing, amenities, pet policies, lease terms, and move-in specials. It schedules property tours, captures prospect information (name, contact, move-in timeline, current housing situation), and qualifies leads. Leasing agents receive instant notifications with all details to follow up promptly.
Will tenants know they are speaking with an AI receptionist?
The AI receptionist introduces itself professionally and focuses on resolving tenant issues quickly. Most tenants appreciate the immediate 24/7 response rather than waiting for voicemail callbacks. The AI voice receptionist maintains a warm, professional tone and always offers to connect tenants with a human property manager for complex situations.
Can the AI receptionist handle multiple properties?
Yes. Our AI receptionist can manage calls for entire portfolios—whether you have 10 units or 10,000. The system routes each call to the appropriate property manager, maintenance vendor, or leasing agent based on the property and issue type. Multi-property analytics help you identify maintenance trends and compare performance across your portfolio.
What property management software does the AI receptionist integrate with?
AgentZap integrates with all major property management platforms including AppFolio, Buildium, Rent Manager, Yardi Breeze, PropertyWare, RentRedi, Propertyware, and ResMan. Maintenance requests and leasing leads flow directly into your existing systems. We also integrate with Google Calendar, Calendly, Slack, and 5,000+ business tools via Zapier.
How does an AI receptionist compare to hiring front desk staff?
A full-time property management receptionist costs $3,500-$4,500/month plus benefits, only works during office hours, takes vacations, and handles one call at a time. Our AI voice receptionist costs a fraction of that, works 24/7/365, handles unlimited simultaneous calls, and never calls in sick. Many property managers use AI for after-hours coverage and overflow while keeping staff for in-person tenant interactions.
Can the AI receptionist handle rent payment inquiries?
Yes. The AI receptionist can provide tenants with their balance, due date, and payment portal information. For sensitive payment issues like payment plans or late fee waivers, the AI captures details and escalates to the appropriate property manager. It can also send payment reminder texts and confirm receipt of rent payments.
Does the AI receptionist help with tenant complaints and noise issues?
Yes. The AI receptionist logs noise complaints, neighbor disputes, and other tenant concerns with timestamps and details. For urgent situations (threatening behavior, safety concerns), it immediately escalates to the property manager. Routine complaints are documented and queued for next-day follow-up, creating a clear record for lease violation notices if needed.
How quickly can my property management company get started?
Most property management companies are fully operational within 48-72 hours. Our property management specialists configure your emergency protocols, maintenance vendor lists, property-specific information, and custom responses. We provide dedicated setup support and call testing to ensure the AI receptionist handles your specific workflows correctly.
Is tenant information kept secure?
Yes. AgentZap uses enterprise-grade security including encrypted data transmission (TLS 1.3), encrypted storage (AES-256), access controls, and complete audit logging. We offer secure data handling that protects tenant personal information. All call recordings and transcripts are stored securely with configurable retention policies.
