AI reads every commercial lease — pro-rata share, caps, base years, exclusions, gross-ups — and recalculates CAM, tax, and insurance reconciliations in real time. No more annual spreadsheet scramble; recs are always current and auditable, and tenant true-up statements generate with one click.
A public, search-optimized marketing site for each individual property — built to rank, drive leads, and fill vacancies. Owners with multiple properties get them all rolled up onto one site under their name, so their whole portfolio surfaces together. It doubles as a premium, high-touch owner product no competitor offers — and a retention moat.
The system runs Troy's valuation model and a full cash-flow analysis on each property continuously — current value, equity, cap rate, cash-on-cash, DSCR, NOI trend — so every owner always sees what their asset is worth and how it's performing. Property management becomes asset management.
One search bar at the top of the Admin where Troy can type or speak any question and get an instant answer from live data — "Which owners had negative cash flow this quarter?", "Show me every lease expiring in Q3 under market rent," "What's the value of the Henderson portfolio?" No report builder, no menus — just ask, by voice or text, and the system answers.
Move a tenant out, clean the unit, and move the next tenant in within 24 hours — orchestrated by the system. The move-out inspection auto-dispatches cleaning and any maintenance, the unit is re-listed and matched to a waiting applicant, and the next lease is ready to sign. In parallel, the deposit reconciliation runs the instant the inspection is logged, so the prior tenant's deposit is settled and returned within 24 hours — a standard no competitor comes close to.
On the owner / asset-management dashboard, every owner sees their rents and expenses side by side with three benchmarks: the Landmark portfolio, the greater local market (CoStar / Apartments.com comps), and national norms. Instantly shows where they stand — "your rents run 8% below comparable units" or "your maintenance spend is in the top quartile" — turning the dashboard into a coaching tool that surfaces upside and justifies Landmark's recommendations.
A dedicated Asset Management service line (business plan, April 2026; target launch July 1, 2026) that sits one layer above property management: strategy, capital allocation, returns, risk, and coordination with the owner's CPA, attorney, and advisor. It's billed as an additional fee on top of the property-management fee — roughly +1% of gross revenue — so the same owner relationship generates a second recurring revenue stream.
Year-1 target: $180K from 4–6 portfolio clients · Year-3 target: $750K at 40%+ margin. The Admin is the platform that makes delivering it at scale possible — productizing what a family office charges six figures for.
| Tier | Portfolio size | AM fee | Bundled PM+AM | Annual minimum |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Essentials | $5M–$15M · 50–125 units | 1.25% | 5.50% blended | $24,000 |
| Portfolio | $15M–$35M · 125–300 units | 1.00% | 5.25% blended | $42,000 |
| Institutional | $35M+ · 300+ units | 0.75% | 5.00% blended | $90,000 |
Fee is % of gross collected revenue (not AUM), in addition to property management. Plus: acquisition advisory 0.50–1.00% of price · disposition via Muljat Commercial (10% discount after 24 mo under AM) · refinance oversight 0.25% of proceeds (cap $15K) · capital-project oversight 5% on projects over $100K.
Every service in the Asset Management scope-of-services document. The wish-list features above (the asset-management dashboard, owner benchmarking, instant NNN recs, and the hold/sell advisor below) are the engine that lets Landmark deliver all of this profitably.

When an owner's equity, IRR, or local market hits a threshold, the system proactively models a sale, refinance, or 1031 exchange and surfaces the recommendation — the quantitative backbone of the annual strategic plan, delivered continuously instead of once a year. This is what turns Landmark from the owner's manager into the owner's wealth advisor, and it's the clearest justification for the asset-management fee.
Bigger swings worth considering. Most are uniquely possible because Landmark owns the platform and the AI layer — they'd be impossible to bolt onto AppFolio. Grouped by where they create value.
Troy's valuation tool runs automatically across all 833 properties on a schedule, so every owner always has a current Broker Opinion of Value and equity position. PM data quietly becomes a disposition, refinance, and 1031 pipeline.
The monthly statement explains itself in plain English — or a 60-second AI video: "Your NOI dipped 4% because two units turned; both are re-leased above asking, so next month rebounds." Owners actually understand their reports for the first time.
Every owner can ask their own AI anything — "Why was my distribution lower this month?", "Should I renew the Henderson lease?" — answered instantly from their real data, in Landmark's voice.
AI scores every tenant weekly for missed-rent risk using payment history, work-order signals, and communication patterns — so PMs intervene days before a tenant falls behind, not after.
Per-unit optimal rent from live CoStar / Apartments.com comps plus Landmark's own rent roll. The system recommends the renewal rent, shows the vacancy-loss cost of holding out, and sends the offer in one click.
Forward-looking, not just historical: project each owner's next 12 months of cash flow, flag the months that go negative, and recommend reserve top-ups before they're needed.
From roof, HVAC, and water-heater age plus service history, forecast the 5-year capital plan per property and auto-fund reserves — so no owner is ever surprised by a $40K roof.
A tenant snaps a photo of the leak; AI diagnoses the issue, estimates the cost, picks the right vendor, drafts the work order, and bills it back to the owner — all before a human looks at it.
The AI receptionist goes outbound too — rent reminders, renewal calls, vendor scheduling, delinquency follow-up — handling the 5,000–10,000 monthly calls that bottleneck the front desk today.
Auto-generates and serves notices (3-day, lease violation, entry), tracks Washington and local law changes, and keeps every property continuously compliant without a human watching the calendar.
AI scans public records for absentee or underperforming owners in Landmark's markets, auto-generates a BOV and a tailored pitch, and feeds the business-development pipeline — the system grows the company while it runs it.
AI writes the listing copy, virtually stages the photos, syndicates everywhere, and A/B-tests headlines and price — cutting days-on-market with zero marketing labor.
Owners see new acquisition opportunities Landmark sources, with underwriting pre-run on Troy's model — opening the door to syndication and turning owners into repeat buyers.
