Scalable growth, smarter solutions
In order to manage growth without adding substantial headcount, we needed a scalable solution that would automate and streamline various processes. Yardi provides us with the tools necessary to achieve these objectives.
Streamlined management, satisfied tenants
Our mission is to provide a better workplace experience for tenants and create long-term value for our clients. Many tenants will pay a premium to stay in a well-maintained building that takes exceptional care of them. With Yardi solutions, including Facility Manager and CommercialCafe, we deliver that experience.
Automated work orders, real-time updates
CommercialCafe automatically sends a work order to the maintenance technician’s mobile phone. After completing the work he replies to the order with notes about the task. This lets us generate status reports for our building engineers, property managers and executives.

Yes. CommercialCafe is highly configurable, and features can be easily turned on or off as needed. For example, we have clients that only use the tenant portal for work order entry or payment processing.
Yes. You can turn off online payment processing for a single tenant by changing the payment terms for their lease in Voyager.
There is a $25,000 payment transaction limit, which is established per property. ACH transactions are settled the next day; credit and debit card payments settle in about three days. Tenants can set up their payments as follows:
PWIO (Pay What I Owe). Automatically pay any outstanding charges on the account in full, up to the maximum payment amount. The amount depends on the charges that have been posted. It includes ad hoc and variable charges up to the maximum payment amount.
Pay by Lease Charge. This displays all charges on the recurring charge schedule by line item. The user can select specific recurring charges from the charge schedule to pay automatically each month. The selected charge types are paid in full.
Fixed/Variable. The user selects a fixed amount (portion of outstanding charges) to be paid each month, regardless of whether charges have been posted. The system pulls this amount each month regardless of the balance on the account. The variable part of this option allows the user to set up an automatic monthly payment amount for variable charges.
