A Multi-Property Owner’s Journey to Seamless Management with City Relay

A 6-unit multi-property owner reached out to City Relay after feeling frustrated by the disappointing service provided by their existing property management company. From complicated guest check-ins to poor maintenance coordination and a lack of transparency, they started looking for a more reliable property management solution.
Their pursuit led them to City Relay, a reputable company that offered a more professional and seamless management experience.
Challenge:
Before working with City Relay, the multi-property owner faced various challenges that negatively affected guest satisfaction and overall property performance.
- Unreliable in-person support during guest check-ins – often leading guests to disturb a business operating in the same building.
- Inefficient cleaning and maintenance – resulting in negative guest experiences.
- Limited transparency on bookings and delayed revenue remittance make performance tracking harder.
- Irregular reporting and communication services, leading to frustration and trust issues.
Solution:
