By integrating AI with strong business processes and automation, asset managers can achieve a higher level of efficiency and effectiveness in rent roll management, ultimately leading to better returns and smoother operations.
What is a Rent Roll in Real Estate?
To start, let's define rent rolls. A rent roll is a comprehensive record of rental income for a property or portfolio of properties. It details each tenant’s lease information, including rent amounts, lease start and end dates, and payment statuses. Additionally, rent rolls often include metrics such as Gross Leasable Area (GLA), which refers to the total floor area available for leasing. Essentially, a rent roll report provides a snapshot of the property's income-producing capabilities.

How is a Rent Roll Useful to Asset Managers?
Rent rolls are invaluable tools for asset managers, providing detailed insights into the financial health of a property. Here's how:
Monitor Rental Income
Tracking rental income is a fundamental task for asset managers. Decimal Point Analytics provides a business intelligence tool and process that ensures up-to-date data on payment statuses and rental income. This accurate and timely information helps managers stay on top of their finances effortlessly. Additionally, rental income data can be used for comparison purposes, allowing managers to benchmark performance against similar properties and market standards.By integrating AI with strong business processes and automation, asset managers can achieve a higher level of efficiency and effectiveness in rent roll management, ultimately leading to better returns and smoother operations.
Assess Occupancy Rates
Knowing which units are occupied and which are vacant is crucial for planning and optimizing rental strategies. Decimal Point Analytics uses a robust process to analyze occupancy data. After standardizing and structuring documents into Excel files through automation, these files are plugged into client dashboards, where the occupancy data reflects up-to-date information. We provide business intelligence services, using tools like Power BI and Qlik Sense to show interactive dashboards that aid in better decision-making for asset managers.
Identify Trends
Spotting patterns in rent payments, such as consistent late payments, can be a tedious task. Our business intelligence processes can identify these trends much faster and more accurately. This proactive approach allows managers to address potential issues before they escalate. Additionally, our tools support tenant analysis, geo analysis, and seasonal analysis, providing comprehensive insights that help asset managers optimize their rental strategies and make informed decisions.
Evaluate Investment Performance
Evaluating the income-generating potential of properties is essential for making informed investment decisions. Our analytics offer deep insights into the financial performance of properties. By integrating data from multiple sources and standardizing it through our robust processes, Decimal Point Analytics helps asset managers assess potential returns and identify high-performing investments.
Enhance Data Accuracy and Efficiency
Manual data entry and processing can lead to errors. DPA automates data extraction and validation, significantly reducing these errors. Our solution accurately captures and validates data from diverse document formats, ensuring high accuracy and efficiency.
Faster Turnaround Reporting and Alerts
Generating reports and alerts manually can be slow and might miss timely updates. Our AI systems, combined with strong processes and business intelligence, provide faster turnaround reporting. Because documents come in various formats such as PDF and Excel, we use automation and AI at different stages to standardize and process this data quickly. This helps asset managers receive timely notifications about overdue payments, lease expirations, and other critical events, ensuring timely action and better management of rental properties.
Industry Insights on AI in Rent Roll Management
According to a Deloitte report, high-outcome organizations are increasingly adopting AI to reimagine operations and enhance performance. These companies track the return on investment (ROI) of AI applications and document the AI model lifecycle, leading to better decision-making and operational efficiency. The report highlights that 65% of organizations prefer buying AI as a product or service rather than building it in-house, allowing them to quickly leverage the technology’s benefits without extensive in-house development (Deloitte United States). PwC's investment in AI underscores its potential, projecting that AI could contribute up to $15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030. PwC emphasizes that AI can significantly transform business operations, enhancing efficiency, and enabling more strategic decision-making (PwC).
