Property management CMMS that keeps tenants renewing

Tenant requests answered in minutes, fifteen vendors coordinated without spreadsheets, and preventive maintenance that ends the 2 AM emergency calls.

Tenants who renew

Maintenance responsiveness is the #1 factor in tenant retention - and a lost tenant costs 6-12 months of rent. Requests get answered in minutes, tracked to done, and tenants see the status without calling.

Vendors under control

The average commercial property runs on 15+ vendors. Contracts, certificates, costs, and work history live in one place - with a notice 90 days before a contract runs out.

Fewer emergencies, lower costs

Reactive repairs cost 3-5x more than planned work. Preventive schedules for HVAC, elevators, and life safety shift the ratio - fewer 2 AM calls, longer equipment life, calmer budgets.

Answer the complaint before it becomes a move-out

Slow maintenance response is the top reason tenants leave - and replacing one costs 6-12 months of rent. With a self-service portal, requests reach your team the moment they're noticed, become tracked work orders, and close with the tenant notified automatically.

  • Tenant request portal with live status visibility
  • A request form on your own tenant website - one snippet, no tenant account
  • Approved requests convert to work orders automatically
  • Assign in-house staff or dispatch straight to a vendor
  • Response and resolution times tracked per property

Fifteen vendors, zero spreadsheets

HVAC, plumbing, elevators, electrical, landscaping - a commercial property runs on a roster of specialists. AssetLab keeps their contracts, attached certificates, costs, and complete work history in one place, and dispatches work orders to them directly.

Break the reactive maintenance cycle

Up to 70% of property maintenance is reactive, and every emergency repair costs 3-5x its planned equivalent. PM schedules on building systems flip the ratio month by month - and lifecycle data flags the 25-year-old systems worth replacing before they flood a floor.

  • PM schedules for HVAC, elevators, plumbing, life safety
  • Rolling schedules keep technician workload level
  • Lifecycle data flags end-of-life systems for capital plans
  • Cost history per asset justifies repair-vs-replace calls

Property Management CMMS FAQ

Common questions about property maintenance software, tenant requests, vendor coordination, and CAM transparency.

What is property management maintenance software?
It's a CMMS built for buildings with tenants: it turns tenant requests into tracked work orders, coordinates the vendors who do the work, schedules preventive maintenance on building systems, and keeps cost and condition history for every property in the portfolio.
How does the tenant request portal work?
Tenants submit issues through a simple self-service portal - no app install, no training. Your team triages the request, approves it into a work order, and assigns staff or a vendor. The tenant sees status the whole way through, which cuts the follow-up calls that eat your day. You can also put a request form on your own tenant website with one snippet: no account needed, and every submission waits for your team to review it.
Can AssetLab track vendor contracts and insurance certificates?
Contracts, yes; insurance certificates, partly. Vendor management keeps every contractor's contacts, trades, and contracts on file, and you can attach a certificate of insurance to the contract as a document. Contract end dates are tracked, with a notice 90 days before a contract expires, but AssetLab does not track a separate expiry date on each certificate. Work orders dispatch directly to assigned vendors.
Can AssetLab help with CAM charge transparency?
Yes. Every work order captures labour, parts, and vendor costs against the property and asset where the work happened. When tenants question common area maintenance charges, you can produce the detailed, dated work history behind the number instead of arguing from a summary line.
How does preventive maintenance reduce property operating costs?
Reactive repairs cost 3-5x more than planned maintenance once you count emergency rates, secondary damage, and tenant disruption. PM schedules keep HVAC, elevators, and plumbing serviced on interval, extending equipment life by 20% or more and cutting the emergency calls that blow up budgets.
Can I manage commercial, residential, and strata properties together?
Yes. AssetLab supports unlimited properties of any type in one account. Each building keeps its own assets, tenants' requests, vendors, and cost history - and portfolio dashboards compare condition and spending across everything you manage.
