Improved Accuracy and Risk Mitigation </h2>\n<p>Lease terms and obligations can be complex and subject to regulatory requirements. A lease admin system helps ensure that lease agreements are accurately documented and compliant with legal, regulatory, and accounting standards, minimizing the liklihood of disputes, legal, and financial disclosure issues. <br><br>Through accurate documentation, compliance tracking, and automated alerts, these systems can also help mitigate risks associated with lease management and financial discrepancies. </p>\n<h2>5. Scalability and Growth Support </h2>\n<p>Lease admin systems can track lease expiration, renewal, and other critical dates. By actively managing these dates and addressing them on a proactive basis, real estate decision makers ensure that they provide themselves enough time to properly address business and legal terms for all new leases. <br><br><em>>> Related Resource: </em><a href=\"/articles/my-lease-is-expiring-what-do-i-do\" rel=\"noopener\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">My Lease Is Expiring; What Do I Do?</a><em> </em></p>\n<h2>6.

<p><strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"><span data-contrast="auto" xml:lang="EN" lang="EN"><span>Lease admin systems provide a centralized repository for all relevant documents and data, including financial agreements, legal contracts, lease terms and <a href="https://allegrorealty.com/articles/why-exercising-a-lease-renewal-option-is-your-last-resort" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">renewal dates</a>. This reduces the chances of data loss or confusion and allows for easy access to critical information. </span></span></span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559740":276}"></span></p>
<h2>2. Less Administrative Burden </h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">Paper-based lease documents can be cumbersome to manage and retrieve. A digital lease admin system allows for efficient document storage, retrieval, and sharing, saving time and reducing administrative overhead. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559685":0,"335559737":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":276}"></span></p>

<h2>4. Improved Accuracy and Risk Mitigation </h2>
<p>Lease terms and obligations can be complex and subject to regulatory requirements. A lease admin system helps ensure that lease agreements are accurately documented and compliant with legal, regulatory, and accounting standards, minimizing the liklihood of disputes, legal, and financial disclosure issues. <br><br>Through accurate documentation, compliance tracking, and automated alerts, these systems can also help mitigate risks associated with lease management and financial discrepancies. </p>
<h2>5. Scalability and Growth Support </h2>
<p>Lease admin systems can track lease expiration, renewal, and other critical dates. By actively managing these dates and addressing them on a proactive basis, real estate decision makers ensure that they provide themselves enough time to properly address business and legal terms for all new leases. <br><br><em>>> Related Resource: </em><a href="/articles/my-lease-is-expiring-what-do-i-do" rel="noopener" style="font-style: italic;">My Lease Is Expiring; What Do I Do?</a><em> </em></p>

<h2>1. Centralized Data Management </h2>
<p><strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"><span data-contrast="auto" xml:lang="EN" lang="EN"><span>Lease admin systems provide a centralized repository for all relevant documents and data, including financial agreements, legal contracts, lease terms and <a href="https://allegrorealty.com/articles/why-exercising-a-lease-renewal-option-is-your-last-resort" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">renewal dates</a>. This reduces the chances of data loss or confusion and allows for easy access to critical information. </span></span></span></strong><span data-ccp-props="{"201341983":0,"335559740":276}"></span></p>
<h2>2. Less Administrative Burden </h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">Paper-based lease documents can be cumbersome to manage and retrieve. A digital lease admin system allows for efficient document storage, retrieval, and sharing, saving time and reducing administrative overhead. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559685":0,"335559737":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":0,"335559740":276}"></span></p>
<h2>3. Scalability and Growth Support </h2>
<p>Lease admin systems are scalable, making them suitable for managing a growing portfolio of properties. They provide a structured framework for expanding real estate operations without sacrificing organization and control.</p>

<h2>4. Improved Accuracy and Risk Mitigation </h2>
<p>Lease terms and obligations can be complex and subject to regulatory requirements. A lease admin system helps ensure that lease agreements are accurately documented and compliant with legal, regulatory, and accounting standards, minimizing the liklihood of disputes, legal, and financial disclosure issues. <br><br>Through accurate documentation, compliance tracking, and automated alerts, these systems can also help mitigate risks associated with lease management and financial discrepancies. </p>
<h2>5. Scalability and Growth Support </h2>
<p>Lease admin systems can track lease expiration, renewal, and other critical dates. By actively managing these dates and addressing them on a proactive basis, real estate decision makers ensure that they provide themselves enough time to properly address business and legal terms for all new leases. <br><br><em>>> Related Resource: </em><a href="/articles/my-lease-is-expiring-what-do-i-do" rel="noopener" style="font-style: italic;">My Lease Is Expiring; What Do I Do?</a><em> </em></p>

<p><span data-contrast="auto" xml:lang="EN" lang="EN"><span>These systems often come with reporting and </span><span>data </span><span>analytic</span><span> capabilities that </span><span>assi</span><span>s</span><span>t decision makers with developing</span><span> insights for </span><span>their portfolios.

<h2>7. Remote Access and Collaboration </h2>
<p>Cloud-based lease admin systems enable remote access, allowing property managers, tenants, and other stakeholders to collaborate and access lease information from anywhere with an internet connection. <br><br><em>>> Related Resource: </em><a href="/articles/selecting-the-right-lease-management-software-6-factors-to-consider" rel="noopener" style="font-style: italic;">Selecting the Right Lease Management Software: 6 Factors to Consider</a><em> </em></p>
<h2>8. Effective Reporting and Analytics </h2>
<p>Lease admin systems can send automated alerts and reminders for important dates, such as lease expirations, rent escalations, and <a href="/articles/7-benefits-of-cloud-based-computerized-maintenance-management-systems-cmms" rel="noopener">maintenance obligations</a>. This helps prevent missed deadlines and ensures timely action. </p>

<p><span data-contrast="none">Allegro’s facilities management team worked with the Hitchcock Center to find the right janitorial services firm for the building that could sufficiently supply workers on-site. </span><span data-contrast="none">Allegro determined that one full-time porter and one part-time porter were needed to clean the bathrooms, take out the trash, and</span><span data-contrast="none"> </span><span style="font-weight: bold;">ultimately provide residents with a clean place to heal and recover. </span><span data-contrast="none"></span></p>
<h2>Revitalizing Rooms With Consistent Maintenance </h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">In addition to consistent cleaning services,<span style="font-weight: bold;"> the historic building was also in need of regular maintenance.</span> Allegro prioritized maintenance projects based on the impact to the organization and its residents.

<li>Installing window blinds and air conditioning units for new residents. </li>
<li>Painting walls and ceilings. </li>
<li>Repairing plaster walls and ceilings that were crumbling from previous water damage. </li>
<li>Fixing drainage problems.</li>
<li>Identifying an HVAC contractor to assess the current systems and begin doing regular maintenance inspections on the boilers and other HVAC units. </li>
<li>Moving and configuring furniture. </li>
<li>Renovating rooms that had been placed out of service (fixing roof leaks, repairing damaged walls, floors, and sinks) so that more residents could be moved into the facility. </li>

<p><span data-contrast="none">Allegro’s facilities management team worked with the Hitchcock Center to find the right janitorial services firm for the building that could sufficiently supply workers on-site. </span><span data-contrast="none">Allegro determined that one full-time porter and one part-time porter were needed to clean the bathrooms, take out the trash, and</span><span data-contrast="none"> </span><span style="font-weight: bold;">ultimately provide residents with a clean place to heal and recover. </span><span data-contrast="none"></span></p>
<h2>Revitalizing Rooms With Consistent Maintenance </h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">In addition to consistent cleaning services,<span style="font-weight: bold;"> the historic building was also in need of regular maintenance.</span> Allegro prioritized maintenance projects based on the impact to the organization and its residents. Some of these activities included: </span> </p>
<ul>
<li>Installing window blinds and air conditioning units for new residents. </li>
<li>Painting walls and ceilings. </li>
<li>Repairing plaster walls and ceilings that were crumbling from previous water damage. </li>
<li>Fixing drainage problems.</li>
<li>Identifying an HVAC contractor to assess the current systems and begin doing regular maintenance inspections on the boilers and other HVAC units. </li>
<li>Moving and configuring furniture. </li>
<li>Renovating rooms that had been placed out of service (fixing roof leaks, repairing damaged walls, floors, and sinks) so that more residents could be moved into the facility. </li>
</ul>
<h2>Ensuring the Safety of Residents </h2>
<p><span data-contrast="none">When Allegro first partnered with the Hitchcock Center, the team realized that, although meeting code requirements, <span style="font-weight: bold;">the building’s fire alarm was not connected to a monitoring system.</span> In other words, the fire department would not be automatically alerted if the fire alarm was triggered. </span></p>
<p><span data-contrast="none">Allegro immediately worked with the Hitchcock Center to <span style="font-weight: bold;">upgrade the building’s fire system</span>, and it is now connected and functioning properly. Allegro also works with the staff to <span style="font-weight: bold;">conduct regular fire drills</span>, ensuring the safety of the residents and their children. <br><br>In addition to updating the fire system, Allegro’s facilities management team also prioritized <span style="font-weight: bold;">a renovation to the building’s kitchen.</span> It originally was equipped with fridges, an air fryer, and a hot plate for residents—not necessarily ideal for mothers with young children. The team worked to improve not only the functionality, but also the safety of the space, to include more counters and appliances other than hot plates. </span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559685":0,"335559737":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}"> </span><span data-ccp-props="{"134233117":false,"134233118":false,"201341983":0,"335551550":1,"335551620":1,"335559685":0,"335559737":0,"335559738":0,"335559739":160,"335559740":259}"></span></p>
