Kerry and Jimmy’s Words of Wisdom: "It is critical for property management teams to question the motives of those that point to flaws in the systems you are using, as many subpar providers use these tactics as sales tools. On the other hand, providers should proactively educate their customers about their capabilities and provide accurate information to set realistic expectations.”
