#98 Maliece Sorrows - Simplebills

May 13, 2020 by Brad Larsen

Wouldn’t it be great to have a system in place that allows the utilities in move-outs to stay on with no downtime to make ready? Listen as Brad and his guest Maliece Sorrows discuss how Simplebills is making that possible. They also speak about what Simplebills is, and how long they have been around on this episode of the Property Management Mastermind.

Maliece shares how Simplebill works and what the benefits are for a PMC. Brad speaks about RealPage’s involvement with Simplebill, and Maliece shares how it will benefit the owners and tenants. They discuss how to implement Simplebills into your company, how to monetize it with your tenants and owners, and all the benefits that come with integrating Simplebills into your property management company.

Listen as they chat about how Simplebill handles compliance with utilities in all the different states where they have offices. Maliece also shares the penalties that can be assessed if a PMC tries to make money from the tenant for utility bills, how they handle delinquencies, and their default procedures. 

Simplebill has partnered with Citizens Home Solutions to handle ancillary services while Simplebill takes care of the utilities, which makes everything easier for the tenant, owner, and property management company. Have you jumped onto the Simplebill train yet? If not, you need to listen to this episode because once you do, you will realize you are missing out.
