Ooops lolFor example:75% of tenants pay their rent online.Others mail a certified check to our office.Showings are virtual and automated.In-bound calls have been slowly eliminated over the years and a lot of our operation is conducted through email and other platforms.There is almost no need to visit the office.Looking to automate and virtualize even further but we still like having an office as it's good for camaraderie so will keep it that way for now 🤓
