HOME AUTOMATION PLATFORM
Manage all properties from one dashboard with status views that allow you to filter, sort and drill down to a specific unit. View daily access log reports, track staff entry/exit on properties, and control doors, thermostats and sensors across properties for easier and smarter property management.
KEYLESS ENTRY
Eliminate the hassle of traditional keys with keyless access control
Keys are becoming outdated and have always been costly. Automatically generate a unique passcode for each guest and send via text or email when the property is ready. We also offer a Bluetooth-enabled system using the guest’s phone as the key.
Benefits:
- Eliminate rekeying costs from guests losing or forgetting to return physical keys
- Increase guest satisfaction with easy check-in/check-out
- Improve security by locking and monitoring vacant properties
The hassle and cost of key pick-up/drop-off, lost keys and rekeying is eliminated with Brivo Vacation Rental.
THERMOSTAT
Manage energy costs and eliminate unnecessary heating and cooling in vacant properties
Wasted energy and high utility bills are costly and energy management is critical to the bottom line of any vacation rental property. Smart thermostats let you control temperature remotely or easily shut these off from anywhere.
Benefits:
- Save money by not wasting energy and money heating or cooling a vacant property
- Improve management efficiency by remotely adjusting temperatures
- Scalable energy solution lets you operate lighting and climate for dozens or hundreds of properties
With Brivo Vacation Rental, energy consumption is reduced and wasted power and high utility bills are eliminated.
SENSORS
Detect water or freeze issues right away and save thousands of dollars and many headaches
Property damage is the most expensive repair. Prevent risk with water sensors strategically placed near hot water heaters or appliances such as a washing machine or dishwasher that send an alert if water is detected. Use freeze sensors to receive an alert if the temperature drops too low.
Benefits:
- Know if there’s trouble immediately with notifications via text message and email when freeze and flood conditions exist
- Drastically reduce the response time and minimize property damage
- Enjoy peace of mind that your properties are being monitored 24/7
Brivo Vacation Rental gives you an early warning and the much-needed time to prevent damage completely.
GARAGE DOOR CONTROL
Remove the hassle and expensive to replace garage door openers.
Garage access is a big benefit for guests to get started on their vacation plans. Guests want the convenience of pulling into the garage without having to punch in a manual code. Simply send a text message to open and close the garage door.
Benefits:
- Increase guest satisfaction rates by giving them an easy solution to open the garage door
- Reduce costs and hassle from lost garage door openers
- Increase security and staff efficiency by controlling garage doors remotely by phone or computer – no one has to go to the property to visibly check the garage door
Brivo Vacation Rental turns the guest’s phone into the opener and allows you to control garage doors remotely.
Learning and adding the system is easy – Brivo offers professional and do-it-yourself installation kits to quickly get up and running while meeting your schedule and budget.
