Realm-X Performers

Realm-X Performers can be added into specific Realm-X Flows to handle various steps of the workflow. So steps that may once have required your team to manage can now be assigned to a Performer so they can autonomously execute those on tasks, like helping a resident troubleshoot a maintenance issue or pre-qualifying prospective residents and scheduling showings.

  • Realm-X Leasing Performer
