What is a utility concierge and what it’s not

What is a utility concierge and what it's not - Utility Junction, a solution for real estate investment companies

Who uses a utility concierge and for what purpose? A homeowner, common businesses and real estate companies that manage multiple homes, basically everybody at some point. 

Why? Because it’s easier, safer, and it’s cost effective mainly for real estate investors, and property managers.

A utility concierge will meet with you to discuss the services you need, and help you find the best provider for you. A utility concierge can help you connect water, electricity, cable, or any other utility. However, most of them only provide water and electricity options.

Connecting utilities through a third party avoids the company spending time and money in the shape of manpower hours, delays and overpayment because of a bad rate. Those numbers become even more important when we’re talking about a property portfolio of more than 100 properties.

Then, what is it not a utility concierge?

It’s not a company that focuses on bringing the client savings in time and money to help them reduce costs in the ROI. 

It’s not a company that streamlines a part of operations for real estate investors and property management companies.

It’s not a company that goes beyond connecting utilities, to also provide the option to track and analyze utility expenses and make utility bill payments for the recently connected utilities. 

 

So is Utility Junction a utility concierge company? We go far and beyond that for our clients. Your company can rely on us for all utility management services.

 

Did you know that real estate investors and property managers can save thousands of dollars in time and money by outsourcing their utility management to a third party?

 

If not, we’re here to tell you: It’s true!

 

When the company starts to scale is when issues start to arise, because as the property volume increases, you need to track more details about the bills and properties, more spreadsheets are created and more connections and disconnections are requested in a not so friendly and tedious process that involves dealing for long hours with utility providers. Furthermore, some billing is received via paper bills and others via e-bills or paperless bills, which makes it harder to have full control of the due dates, amounts to pay, and bills to pay.
