Properties
Build and maintain property and unit records that support every downstream workflow.
Properties and units are your foundational records. High-quality setup here makes leasing, maintenance, and billing predictable.
Outcomes you should enforce
These outcomes define a healthy property data model.
- Every operational unit has a unique and stable identifier.
- Property metadata supports clear ownership and reporting filters.
- Archived records preserve history without polluting active operations.
Property setup workflow
Run this procedure for every new property to keep data quality consistent.
Portfolio operations guidance
Your structure should adapt to both small and large portfolios.
Keep data complete and straightforward. Use minimum required tags and avoid duplicate naming aliases.
Enforce naming standards and location taxonomy. Audit duplicates weekly to protect search and reporting accuracy.
Data quality control checklist
Use this checklist during weekly review cycles.
