The emergencies your rental was going to cost you,
scheduled out of your year.
A flat monthly fee per property covers the preventive work — HVAC filters, gutter cleanouts, smoke detector tests, water heater flushes — and dispatches a vetted contractor when something breaks. Far less than the 8–10% a property manager charges; predictable in a way emergencies never are.
For landlord-portfolios of 1–10 units. Works alongside Avail, Hemlane, TenantCloud, RentRedi, or TurboTenant.

The math landlords live with
The phone rings once. Then it rings again.
A tenant calls at 10pm about a leak. You call three plumbers. None answer. One calls back tomorrow with a $1,800 quote. This is the rhythm that wears small landlords down — and the reason the 8–10% full-service fee feels almost worth it, even when it costs you a thousand dollars a year per unit.
Replace this
Same problem. Same outcome. One of them you can budget around.
How it works
Four steps, then the same thing every year.
Set up once. Lotguard runs the calendar, you get the receipts and the photos. Year two looks like year one — fewer surprises, and the ones that do happen already have a contractor on the way.
Add your properties
Drop in addresses, unit counts, and the appliances already in place. Takes five minutes per property.
We schedule the year
Lotguard lays out the year’s preventive work — H1 and H2 — against your local climate and appliance ages.
Contractors show up
From a vetted bench built in the metros we serve. You get a notification, before-and-after photos, and a receipt.
Breaks get handled fast
Something fails between visits? Open a ticket. We dispatch and you see status — no playing phone tag.
What’s covered
The things that quietly cost landlords the most.

HVAC filter swaps
Every 60–90 daysKeeps airflow, lowers utility bills, extends unit life.
Gutter cleanouts
Spring + fallPrevents fascia rot, foundation pooling, ice damming.
Smoke + CO detector tests
Every 6 monthsBattery swaps, chirp triage, end-of-life replacements.
Water heater flush
Once a yearAnode rod check, sediment drain — the classic $6,000 fix.
The classic $200 inspection → $6,000 repair.

Full-service property management
On a $1,400 / month unit, that’s $112–$140 / month — just for the management layer — before any actual repair work.
Lotguard is the part of that service most landlords actually want: scheduled maintenance and break-fix dispatch. The tenant, rent, and lease side stays with the tool you already use.
