The eviction process is complex, time-sensitive, and often overwhelming for property managers. CsS Services, Inc. is revolutionizing the industry with a service-infused technology platform designed to streamline eviction management and expedite property recovery. By partnering with cutting-edge technology providers like Salesforce and integrating their proprietary OptiRent™ platform with Yardi®, CsS is setting new standards for efficiency and transparency.
We had the opportunity to sit down with Richard George, Chief Revenue Officer at CsS Services, to discuss how their technology is transforming eviction management and what the future holds for this essential industry.
CsS Services, Inc. has built a reputation for combining technology with value added services in eviction management. Can you share how your platform enhances efficiency and transparency for property managers?
There are two key components to eviction efficiency, firstly it is imperative to have good visibility of the timelines associated with each stage of the case and secondly measuring the exception to the normal process timeline. OptiRent™ provides visibility from demand through court filing, setout, and cleanup, which is typically unavailable. This level of visibility allows our clients to predictively model case resolutions to a jurisdictional level.
Your team has integrated the OptiRent™ platform with ®, a leading property management software. What benefits does this integration bring to property managers handling evictions?
Our typical workflow requires the property managers to manually upload the documents and ledgers into OptiRent™. Due to the manual nature of the workflow there is a propensity for errors such as the wrong document or misspelled relevant data being entered into the system. These issues and errors can cause time delays resulting in cases being rejected by lawyers or courts and ultimately delaying the filing process. ,
Our Yardi® integration uploads all the tenant information and documents directly from the customer’s Yardi® instance and allows for the seamless submission of a case into the OptiRent™ system and therefore reducing likelihood of an error and potentially improving the NOI for the property owner. Furthermore, the elimination of the manual workflow element can lead to significant time savings due to the time it takes to submit the cases into the OptiRent™ system.
Salesforce plays a key role in your internal operations. How has it helped optimize your workflow and improve customer service?
When you are processing tens of thousands of eviction cases through 100s of law firms in 40+ states and 2K+ jurisdictions, all of which could have 10-15 data points that require tracking you can imagine a data set that is unwieldy. Having a powerful Business Intelligence tool becomes essential. The tool gives us the ability to create clear visibility of timelines and case volumes that are being managed all the way down to the jurisdictional and property unit level.
From a customer service perspective SF Service gives us clear visibility into customer issues and tracks the time to resolution of each request creating a critical degree of accountability for each department in our company. The platform also provides us with a gateway into the efficiencies AI can deliver to our team and customers.
With the growing role of automation and AI in property management, how is CsS leveraging these technologies to further improve eviction process management?
Generative AI firstly requires management of the data sets, this represents the fuel that feeds the engine, so for CsS it starts with a data management road map that represents the filter for the data we will use to feed the generative AI engine. We will then channel this data into a variety of AI forms that will allow us to become more responsive to our customers needs and requests and interpret our data that we are generating to optimize the efficiency within the eviction process.
Security and data privacy are critical in handling sensitive eviction cases. What measures does CsS take to ensure client and tenant data is protected?
Security and data privacy are critical when managing sensitive eviction cases. CsS takes a comprehensive, industry best practices approach to protecting client and tenant data from exposure and loss. Our multi-layered security framework includes physical data center protection, advanced intrusion detection, and proactive threat prevention. We enforce strict access controls, encrypt sensitive data at all stages, and apply rigorous security patching. Our policies ensure responsible data handling, stringent employee vetting, and routine penetration testing. With multi-layered backup and disaster recovery solutions, including encrypted remote storage, we strengthen resilience and continuity. CsS is committed to maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance to safeguard sensitive eviction case data.
Looking ahead, what innovations or improvements can customers expect from CsS Services, Inc. in the coming years?
Through the ongoing investments CsS is making in technology our customers can expect to see better visibility into case timelines, increased efficiency in the eviction process, expeditious customer service response, and most importantly quicker returns of properties to the rental pool.
Technology is reshaping the eviction management process, and CsS Services, Inc. is at the forefront of this transformation.
