What Makes Us Different:
Unlock Efficiency Gains That Drive Property Performance
Slash Time-to-Hire by 70%
Slash Time-to-Hire by 70%: In multifamily property management, vacancies cost $1,500 per unit monthly in lost rent. Our AI sources qualified leasing agents with fair housing certification in under 48 hours, not weeks, ensuring units in your 200+ portfolio stay occupied and revenue flows uninterrupted. Expect 20 hours saved weekly on manual searches alone, allowing focus on tenant retention strategies.
Achieve 4x ROI Through Reduced Turnover
Achieve 4x ROI Through Reduced Turnover: High churn in maintenance tech roles averages 50% annually in commercial real estate. Our intelligent matching, using skills like OSHA safety training, cuts it by 30%, saving $15,000 per role in retraining and lost productivity during peak seasons. Quantifiable: firms with 1,000+ units see payback in just 3 months via seamless integration with property management software.
Boost Productivity with Automated Screening
Boost Productivity with Automated Screening: Forget sifting through 100+ resumes for certified HVAC specialists familiar with refrigerant handling regs. AI filters for skills like fair housing compliance and emergency response protocols, freeing your team for site visits and tenant relations in retail plazas. Result: 15% faster fills for seasonal roles, 25% cost reduction on vacancy downtime.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ, we spent Fridays buried in resumes for new property managers handling our 300-unit multifamily portfolio—easily 10 hours lost per week. Their system now auto-screens for experience in lease renewals and schedules interviews via our AppFolio integration, cutting our hire time from 6 weeks to 10 days. We've filled three roles this quarter without overtime, keeping occupancy above 95%."
Maria Gonzalez
HR Director, Apex Property Group (Managing 1,200 Multifamily Units in the Southwest)
"Turnover was killing us during summer leasing rushes for our commercial office spaces; we'd lose weeks chasing vendor hires for security patrols. The custom AI they built integrated with our Yardi Voyager system and flagged top candidates with armed guard certifications instantly. Saved us $20K in agency fees last year alone, plus avoided disruptions in tenant services."
David Chen
Operations Manager, Urban Rentals Inc. (Overseeing 500,000 Sq Ft of Commercial Properties)
"As a mid-sized firm with 500 units across suburban apartments, compliance checks for inspectors under HUD guidelines were a nightmare, often delaying certifications for mold remediation. AIQ's automation verifies certs like lead paint handling upfront during sourcing, and we've reduced bad hires by half while cutting verification time from days to hours. It's like having an extra recruiter who never sleeps, ensuring we're audit-ready year-round."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your recruiting automation handle the unique demands of property management hiring?
Property management roles often require niche skills like handling tenant disputes or knowledge of local zoning laws, which generic tools overlook. We customize AI models trained on industry data to source candidates with proven experience in these areas. For instance, during peak seasons, the system prioritizes urgency, pulling from specialized pools like former on-site supervisors. Integration with your property software ensures requisitions for roles like maintenance leads auto-populate with site-specific needs. Clients typically see a 60% reduction in unqualified applicants, allowing HR to focus on high-value tasks like retention strategies. This tailored approach, built on frameworks like TensorFlow, delivers reliability far beyond off-the-shelf solutions.
What kind of time savings can we expect for sourcing vendors and contractors?
In property management, sourcing reliable vendors—think plumbers for emergency repairs or landscapers for HOA grounds—can eat up 10-15 hours weekly, especially with fragmented lists. Our AI automates this by scraping certified networks and scoring based on past performance in real estate contexts, like response times to service calls. One client reduced vendor onboarding from 2 weeks to 2 days, saving $5,000 monthly in downtime costs. The system integrates with your procurement tools for seamless approvals, and we include analytics to track vendor reliability against property KPIs. Built custom to your workflow, it eliminates manual RFPs, freeing your team for revenue-driving activities like lease renewals.
Is the system compliant with real estate hiring regulations?
Absolutely—compliance is non-negotiable in real estate, where fair housing and EEOC rules apply strictly to tenant-facing roles. Our automation embeds checks for bias-free screening, anonymizing resumes during initial AI reviews and flagging diverse candidate slates. We've incorporated NAR guidelines into the algorithms, ensuring certifications like real estate licenses are verified automatically via API pulls from state boards. For a 300-unit firm we worked with, this cut compliance audit time by 50%, avoiding potential fines. As builders, we code these features directly, not bolt them on, providing full audit trails and customizable reporting for your legal reviews.
How quickly can we implement this for our property portfolios?
Implementation is phased to minimize disruption: Week 1 for discovery and mapping your hiring flows (e.g., from vacancy alerts to role fills). By Week 4, core features like sourcing and screening go live, with full integration to systems like Yardi by Week 8. We've deployed for similar SMBs in under 6 weeks, starting with high-impact areas like seasonal staffing. Post-launch, our team optimizes based on your data, such as adjusting for regional turnover in urban vs. suburban properties. This rapid rollout, backed by our engineering expertise, ensures ROI kicks in fast—often within the first hiring cycle.
What metrics will we track to measure ROI?
We focus on property-specific KPIs: time-to-hire (target: under 21 days vs. industry 45), cost-per-hire (aim for 30% reduction, e.g., from $4,000 to $2,800 per role), and turnover rates (goal: 25% drop in first-year attrition for roles like leasing agents). Dashboards visualize these against benchmarks from sources like the National Multifamily Housing Council, plus custom metrics like vacancy impact from delayed fills. For one partner, this revealed a $50K annual savings tied directly to faster maintenance hires. Our system exports data to your tools for ongoing analysis, proving efficiency gains in hard dollars.
Can this scale as our property management business grows?
Yes, designed for growth: As you acquire new portfolios or expand into commercial management, our architecture handles increased volume without performance dips—think processing 500+ applications monthly for a 1,000-unit operation. We use scalable cloud frameworks, auto-adjusting for spikes like end-of-year leasing rushes. A client scaling from 200 to 600 units saw no added costs, just smoother hires. Unlike rigid subscriptions, your owned system evolves via simple updates, incorporating new features like AI for remote property manager sourcing. This future-proofs your operations, aligning with long-term goals like portfolio diversification.
