Keepe’s network of independent on-demand
maintenance technicians is now available to Zillow’s customers in five major
metropolitan markets including Greater Seattle, San Francisco Bay area, Greater
Portland, Greater San Diego and the Phoenix Metropolitan area.
“For landlords and property managers
with portfolios of single-family homes and small apartment buildings, sourcing
high quality maintenance technicians on an ongoing basis is the number one
problem,” said Rishi Mathew, co-founder and CEO, Keepe.
“With Keepe’s platform, Zillow Rental Manager users can tap into a high quality network of maintenance technicians who are independently licensed and insured, background checked and constantly vetted by Keepe’s customers.”

With Keepe:
- Landlords and Property managers can submit maintenance requests and obtain quick online estimates.
- Keepe automatically schedules with tenants, and automatically dispatches a technician (Keeper) to complete the maintenance request.
- The requester of maintenance request can get notifications when work is scheduled and successfully completed.
- In addition, admins get access to the entire history of maintenance requests thereby allowing them to manage their entire portfolio of rental units more effectively.
Recent industry research has put
the spotlight on rental property maintenance as one of the most important
aspects of property management.
In a recent Freddie Mac survey, 82 percent of renters cited “freedom from home maintenance responsibilities” as the main reason for continuing to rent instead of own homes. In a separate 2018 survey by Buildium and the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM), property managers declared maintenance as the top challenge facing their business.

As landlords and property managers
realize the importance of streamlining maintenance using technology, they are
turning toward software solutions that can bring transparency and efficiency to
the process both for themselves, renters and property owners. Keepe’s
partnership with Zillow™ is a major step in this direction.
