An AI chatbot on your property management site answers every question automatically — pet policy, lease terms, the application process — at any hour. So the qualified renter who finds your listing at 8pm on Friday contacts you instead of the next listing.
Maintenance requests arrive on weekends — when your office is closed. A chatbot answers common tenant questions and takes a name and number or message for your team.
Why property managers lose qualified renters to the next listing
A qualified renter found your listing on Zillow at 2pm on a Tuesday. They call about the unit, rent, and pet policy. You're at another property dealing with a plumbing issue. They call the next listing on Zillow and tour it.
Is the unit still available? What's the rent? Do you allow pets? What's the lease length? Is there parking? What's included in utilities? What's the application process? These questions come before every showing — and each one requires your personal time to answer.
People searching for rental housing do it after work and on weekends. They find your listing at 8pm Friday. If they can't get basic lease terms right then, they tour properties that were available to respond. You lose the weekend rush every week.
"When is maintenance scheduled?" "How do I submit a repair request?" "What's the late fee policy?" "How do I add a roommate?" These questions come in constantly from your existing portfolio. A chatbot handles the first layer so you're not the answer service for 50 tenants.
How it works
Vacancy status, rent and deposit amounts, pet policy, lease terms, utilities included, parking, application process — the chatbot knows what you've shared for each property and guides every prospect toward contacting you for a showing.
"We allow one pet under 40 lbs. Leases are 12 months. The application process is on our site. Can I get your name and number so we can set up a showing?" Answered at 8pm on Friday. Automatically. You confirm the showing yourself.
The renter who contacted you through the chatbot already knows the pet policy, lease terms, and application process. The showing is about fit — not answering questions that should have been answered before they drove over.
The math
Every vacant unit costs $1,200–$2,500/monthin lost rent. A chatbot that answers Friday evening inquiries so you can book Saturday showings can cut vacancy time by 1–2 weeks per turnover. At 5 units per year, that's $1,500–$5,000 in recovered income — annually, recurring, from faster leasing alone. Add the owner relationships retained because your operation runs smoothly, and the math gets significantly better.
Front Office plans
Every plan is $297 to set up, then monthly. Month-to-month, cancel any time. Buy online, fill out one form, and see your preview within 5 business days. No sales call.
What the receptionist doesn't do: it doesn't book appointments, quote prices or connect to calendars or CRMs. It takes the caller's details so you can call back.
Cancelling and refunds:cancel any time and you aren't billed again; there are no partial-month refunds. The setup fee is returned only if you cancel before you submit the intake form. If we don't deliver what the terms describe, tell us within 30 days of the charge and we fix it, or refund the affected charge if we can't. Read the refund policy and plan terms before you buy.

General property information you share with us: pet policies, lease terms, utility inclusions, parking availability, the application process and requirements, maintenance request procedures, and any building-specific FAQ. It answers from what you give it. It doesn't check live availability.
Yes. The chatbot can be trained on your full portfolio — each property's specifics and policies. Prospective tenants get accurate information for the exact property they're asking about.
No. When a prospect is ready to see a unit, the chatbot takes their name and number and emails it to you, and you schedule the showing yourself. It does not check availability or connect to a calendar.
The chatbot can explain your maintenance request process and take a name and number or message for your team. It doesn't replace your maintenance workflow or log requests into any system.
No contract. One plan, Front Office: $297 one-time setup, then $99/month for the website, $179 with the AI chat, or $249 with the AI receptionist too (300 answered minutes a month, no overage fees). Month-to-month, cancel any time.
$297 one-time setup, then month-to-month from $99. Cancel any time.

See it before you buy it
No slideshow, no actor. A screen recording of our own assistant handling the two questions every owner asks: what happens to the 9pm call I miss, and will it invent things about my business.
Real answers from our live demo bot — unscripted, recorded on this site.
Visitor: I run an HVAC company. A customer calls at 9pm and I can't pick up — what happens?
Anchor Co AI: Right now? They hit voicemail and you've lost them to whoever picks up first. With our chatbot, they hit your website at 9pm, ask “Do you do emergency service?” or “Are you licensed in my county?” — and get an instant answer. The bot captures their name, number, and address. You wake up to a lead instead of a missed call. That's the whole thing: your customers get answers 24/7, you only deal with the calls that actually need you, and you're not losing jobs to competitors who answer faster. Since you're in HVAC, the bot can handle all the common questions — licensing by county, service area, whether you do emergency calls, minimum job size, how long estimates take. You train it on your website in about 10 minutes, and it goes live in an afternoon. Want to try it? You can start free at anchorcoai.com/signup — no credit card required. Test it on your actual website for 14 days and see if it captures leads you would've missed.
Visitor: Will it make stuff up about my business?
Anchor Co AI: No. The bot only answers from what you've given it — your website content, your FAQs, pricing, service areas, whatever you add. If a question falls outside that (something the bot doesn't know), it's honest about it. Instead of guessing, it says “I don't have that info” and asks for their name and contact details so you can follow up personally. It won't make up licensing claims, pricing, or service details. That's the safeguard. Your bot is only as smart as the information you feed it — which means you stay in control of what it says about your business. Honestly the easiest way to see if it works for your business is to just try it. Free plan, no card. anchorcoai.com/signup
