Self-managing is a great option for investors to save money and have more control over their properties, but it can be tough for those with out-of-state properties or full-time careers.
That’s why TurboTenant launched Autopilot — flat-fee property management services reimagined for independent landlords. Autopilot is an alternative to traditional property management companies and is built for owners who value efficiency, transparency, and most of all, protecting your profits.
Why Autopilot is changing the game for military investors
Property managers haven’t always had the best reputation. We hear classic complaints like poor tenant management, expensive maintenance bills, and lack of communication often. Autopilot was built to provide a better solution to hands-off management.
Instead of disorganized updates and unclear communication, Autopilot provides owners full visibility into their portfolio with a centralized dashboard. TurboTenant clearly outlines who is responsible for what, and owners can choose to sign off on decisions that directly impact their rental.
No more worrying about tracking down your property manager or wondering how your rentals are doing. Autopilot ensures you’re always in the know when it comes to your investment.
Who Autopilot is for
Autopilot is built for rental property owners looking for an efficient and reliable way to hand off rental management. Whether you own 50 rentals across the world or you’re working on your first deal, Autopilot can take the day-to-day of property management off your hands for a flat monthly fee.
TurboTenant’s Autopilot service is a great fit for military investors who frequently move and are looking for an affordable way to ensure rentals are taken care of while you’re on the go.
