Why Choose Us
Unlike Jobber's one-size-fits-all approach, we craft a custom-built system that mirrors your exact property management workflow. Think of it as commissioning a bespoke property blueprint instead of squeezing into a generic rental unit. Our AIQ Labs team starts by mapping your portfolio's unique pain points—from multi-site inspections to tenant dispute resolution—then builds a unified platform that scales with your holdings. No more wrestling with off-the-shelf constraints; this is enterprise-grade software, owned outright, designed to handle everything from vacancy forecasting to automated lease clauses.
What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Unmatched Efficiency for Your Properties
Precision Tenant Management
Precision Tenant Management: Our AI-driven system screens applicants using eviction databases, income verification, and predictive analytics aligned with local Fair Housing regulations, forecasting retention based on historical lease data. This reduces turnover by up to 30%, saving a 500-unit multifamily portfolio $50,000+ annually in vacancy losses and re-leasing fees.
Streamlined Maintenance Operations
Streamlined Maintenance Operations: Automate work order dispatching via geofenced vendor matching for emergency repairs like plumbing leaks or roof assessments, slashing response times from 48 hours to under 4 hours. Benchmarks from the National Multifamily Housing Council indicate 25% higher tenant satisfaction, correlating to 15% improved renewal rates in urban portfolios.
Robust Compliance and Reporting
Robust Compliance and Reporting: Instantly generate audit-ready reports customized for FHA Section 8 requirements and varying state habitability codes, automating habitability inspections and penalty avoidance. Managers save 50% on administrative time—equivalent to 10 hours weekly per property—allowing focus on value-add strategies like adaptive reuse projects.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, Jobber's generic templates couldn't accommodate our 300-unit multifamily complexes across fluctuating urban and suburban markets. Their bespoke system now seamlessly manages custom lease addendums for amenities like EV charging stations and integrates with our regional vendor database for prioritized HVAC servicing. We've cut monthly rent roll reporting from five days to three, giving our team bandwidth for proactive site inspections and lease negotiations."
Sarah Jenkins
Director of Property Operations, Urban Properties Group (Managing 1,200+ Units in the Midwest)
"Transitioning from Jobber seemed daunting for our 150-property vacation rental portfolio, but AIQ's proprietary solution transformed our operations. The AI proactively flags maintenance risks using coastal weather APIs to predict issues like flood damage or AC failures, averting three major insurance claims in Q1 alone and saving $18,000 in repair and deductible costs."
Mike Rivera
Senior Portfolio Manager, Coastal Rentals Inc. (Specializing in Short-Term STRs Along the Eastern Seaboard)
"As a boutique firm overseeing 50,000 sq ft of mixed-use commercial spaces, Jobber's escalating add-on fees were crippling our cash flow. AIQ crafted a scalable system that automates annual rent escalations per CPI adjustments and monitors subtenant compliance with zoning variances, all without hidden costs. Within six months, our operational efficiency surged 35%, enabling us to pursue a new Class A office acquisition."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this custom system differ from Jobber in handling multi-property portfolios?
Jobber excels at basic scheduling but struggles with the complexity of diverse portfolios, like mixing residential and commercial sites. Our solution is engineered specifically for property management, incorporating AI to unify workflows across varied assets. For instance, it can automatically adjust maintenance protocols based on property type—think high-rise condos versus suburban rentals—while integrating with specialized tools like Yardi for deeper insights. This results in 50% less time switching between apps, as everything flows into one owned dashboard. We've seen clients manage 20% more units without adding staff, all without Jobber's per-user fees piling up.
What kind of ownership do I get after building the system?
Full ownership, no strings attached. Unlike Jobber's subscription model, where you're locked into their updates and pricing, our custom system becomes your intellectual property. You host it on your servers or ours (your choice), with complete source code access for future tweaks. This eliminates vendor lock-in; if needs change, you can take it to any developer. For property firms, this means scaling without surprise costs—handle seasonal surges in maintenance requests without extra tiers. Our clients typically recoup the one-time build in under a year through efficiency gains, owning a asset that appreciates as your portfolio grows.
Can this integrate with my existing property management software?
Absolutely, and we go beyond superficial connections. While Jobber offers limited zaps to tools like QuickBooks, our two-way API integrations ensure real-time data sync with platforms like AppFolio or RealPage. For example, tenant payments captured in our system instantly update your accounting ledger, reducing reconciliation errors by 90%. We handle the heavy lifting during discovery, mapping your exact data flows— from lease docs to inspection reports—without disrupting operations. This creates a single source of truth, vital for compliance in regulated real estate, and avoids the integration breaks common in off-the-shelf setups.
How long does it take to build and deploy the custom alternative?
Timelines vary by complexity, but most property management systems are live in 8-12 weeks. We start with a two-week discovery to blueprint your needs, like automating work orders for 200+ units. Development follows in agile sprints, with weekly demos to ensure alignment— no endless waits like custom dev horror stories. Testing includes real scenarios, such as peak-season rent collections, before full rollout. Post-launch, we provide two weeks of hands-on training. This efficiency stems from our in-house frameworks; clients often report immediate wins, like 30% faster tenant placements, making the wait worthwhile compared to Jobber's instant-but-limited setup.
Is the system secure for sensitive property and tenant data?
Security is non-negotiable in real estate, where breaches can lead to massive fines under laws like GDPR or FCRA. Our systems use enterprise-grade encryption, role-based access (e.g., maintenance crews see only assigned tickets), and regular audits compliant with housing regulations. Unlike Jobber's shared infrastructure, your custom build is isolated, with AI monitoring for anomalies like unauthorized access attempts. We've incorporated features like secure document vaults for leases and background checks, ensuring tenant privacy. Clients in litigious markets praise this— one reduced audit prep time by 60% thanks to built-in compliance logging. Peace of mind, tailored to your risk profile.
What if my property management needs evolve over time?
Flexibility is core to our approach; your system isn't static like Jobber's rigid modules. As your portfolio shifts—say, adding industrial spaces or expanding to new states—we provide modular updates without rebuilding from scratch. This could mean enhancing AI for commercial lease abstractions or integrating new regs like California's rent control caps. Our ongoing support (optional, affordable retainers) ensures evolution at your pace, with ownership letting you choose providers. Property managers love this: one client scaled from 50 to 150 units seamlessly, adapting vacancy predictions to market shifts, all while keeping costs predictable—no forced migrations or feature upsells.
