Enhancing Tenant Communication for Eightfold Property

In the fast-moving world of property management, clear and efficient communication between tenants, landlords, and agents is essential. Eightfold Property, a leading sales and lettings agency in Brighton, recognized this need and sought a digital solution to streamline their processes.

We were introduced to Eightfold by their design partners, Whitespace, an agency we have collaborated with closely over the years. Together, we developed a bespoke mobile application that enhances tenant engagement and simplifies key aspects of property management.

The Challenge

Eightfold wanted to provide tenants with an easy-to-use platform for reporting maintenance issues, ensuring timely communication between all parties involved. Key requirements for the app included:

A reporting tool allowing tenants to submit maintenance issues with descriptions and supporting photographs.

A rent calculator to help tenants manage their financial commitments.

A payment calendar to track due dates and ensure timely rent payments.

Our Solution

Working in close partnership with Eightfold and Whitespace, we developed a mobile app that delivers a seamless user experience. The app includes:

Intuitive Issue Reporting: Tenants can log maintenance requests and upload photos directly, ensuring landlords and agents receive clear and actionable reports.

Rent Calculation Tool: A built-in rent calculator helps tenants understand their payment breakdowns, reducing confusion and potential disputes.

Automated Payment Reminders: The payment calendar feature helps tenants track upcoming rent deadlines, promoting better financial planning.

The Outcome

Following the app’s launch, Eightfold saw a noticeable improvement in tenant engagement and communication efficiency. Issues were reported and resolved more quickly, and tenants benefited from a more transparent and convenient renting experience.

This collaboration with Eightfold and Whitespace showcases how digital innovation can transform property management, making processes smoother for both agents and tenants.
