Industry Vendor Spotlight: Utility Profit
Stop Wasting Hours on Utility Setup Calls
The Problem: You're spending 2-3 hours per move-in just coordinating utilities, calling companies to verify service areas, waiting on hold to confirm connection dates, and following up when tenants can't reach anyone.
That's 40+ hours per month for a 20-unit portfolio. Time that should go toward growing your business - or maybe even going on an actual lunch break (a rarity, I know).
There's a Better Way
Traditional Utility concierge services advertise that they handle the entire process - from initial setup to final confirmation. Your tenants get one contact, you get your time back, and move-ins run smoother. However - if you’ve ever worked with one, you know that the typical experience is more like you playing middle man with the company than actual “concierge” service.
Utility Profit is different. They’re not offering a done-for-you service, they’re simply a tool you give tenants. They’re not trying to be something that already exists - they’re flipping the Utility set-up game to be entirely self-sufficient.
Here's what caught my attention about Utility Profit:
1. Genuinely Free Service
No fees for property managers, tenants, or owners. They monetize through optional services (internet, security) offered to residents - but only if residents want them. No pressure, no hidden markups.
2. They’re a Software-first Service Company
Their platform is intuitive because they designed it from the ground up for property management workflows. They’re more than just a call center trying to add a dashboard.
3. They Have Property Manager’s Best Interest in Mind
After speaking with their team & learning more about their background, it's clear they're actively improving based on PM feedback. They understand our daily challenges because they talk to us regularly.
So…What Can Utility Profit Actually Do For Me?
I think it’s best to break it down in time saved:
Before: 3 hours per move-in coordinating utilities
After: 5 minutes reviewing their confirmation summary
Before: Tenants calling you when they don’t know who their electric provider is
After: Tenants see exactly which companies to contact
Before: Owners asking why move-ins keep getting delayed
After: Smooth, predictable move-in timeline
Bottom Line
If you're doing more than 5 move-ins per month, a utility concierge pays for itself in time savings alone. Since Utility Profit costs nothing, there's no reason not to try it.
