Illustrative example conversation

What owners tell us

Most rental headaches come down to slow communication.

We've heard the same frustrations from owners across Los Angeles for years. They usually aren't about the property. They're about the messages, calls and requests that nobody answers in time.

Problem 1

Vacancies that drag on

Finding tenants has gotten harder, and the leasing process is rarely streamlined. A prospective tenant calls or messages about your unit. Nobody gets back to them quickly, so they rent somewhere else.

The cost: you lose a good tenant and the rent the unit could have been earning, one empty day at a time.

Problem 2

Property management that goes quiet

Owners tell us the same things about their property managers, again and again:

  • Emails that never get a reply
  • Maintenance requests that go unanswered
  • Tenants waiting days, even weeks, for a fix
  • Leaks and plumbing problems not handled promptly
  • Bad reviews from tenants who feel ignored

What Cosmo changes

  • Faster replies to renters and tenants
  • Routine questions answered for you
  • Requests logged and routed, not lost
  • Simpler, more organized processes
  • Urgent issues sent to the right person
  • Safeguards built in from day one
Why we built Cosmo

Two real estate agents who got tired of hearing the same complaints.

We've each spent about a decade in commercial real estate, working directly with property owners across Los Angeles.

Sitting across from owners, we kept hearing the same stories: property managers who didn't call back, tenants left waiting on repairs, units that sat empty because nobody followed up. And when owners tried to manage on their own, we saw how much of their time it swallowed.

None of these were unsolvable problems. They were systems problems: communication that depended on someone remembering to reply. Better systems, clearer communication and the right technology could fix most of them. So we built Cosmo to do exactly that, for owners and for the property managers who serve them.

The founders of Cosmo

What Cosmo does

Faster answers, organized requests, and listings people actually notice.

We set up the systems around the way you already work, including the property management software you use today. Then you decide how much of it we keep running.

01

Every inquiry gets a fast reply

  • Missed-call text-back within seconds
  • An AI assistant that answers routine questions about the unit and books tours on your calendar
  • Tour reminders and follow-up, plus replies to social media messages
02

Tenant requests don't get lost

  • Maintenance requests logged as tickets, with a confirmation to the tenant
  • After-hours emergencies sent straight to your on-call contact
  • A daily morning digest of the most urgent emails, so nothing gets buried
03

Listings that stand out

  • Better photos, short tour videos and clear descriptions for every vacancy
  • Posted to Zillow, Apartments.com, Redfin and Craigslist
  • Tour videos for Instagram, TikTok and YouTube
04

A reputation that reflects the work

  • Review requests after move-ins and completed repairs
  • Google Business Profile, Facebook page and website cleanup
  • A simple monthly report: response times, tours booked, days vacant

No new software for you to learn. We set it up, write the scripts with you, and make sure it works before it goes live.

Why owners trust us

We know this business from the owner's side of the table.

Cosmo's systems are shaped by years of conversations with Los Angeles property owners about what goes wrong, and what they wish their managers did differently.

About two decades of combined commercial real estate experience

Both founders have spent roughly ten years each in commercial real estate in Los Angeles.

We've worked directly with owners

As agents, we heard firsthand what frustrates owners about property management, and what makes self-managing so hard.

We measure what owners care about

Response time, tours booked and days vacant. Not clicks, not jargon.

Local and reachable

We're in LA. When you need us, you talk to a person who knows your properties.

What a vacant day costs

Move the sliders. Daily cost = monthly rent × 12 ÷ 365.

Per unit, per day$92
Est. rent lost$3,866

An estimate for illustration only. At about $2,800/month, a vacant LA unit loses roughly $90 a day.

Safeguards built in

Our assistant tells people it's an AI, asks everyone the same questions, and never screens or turns anyone away. Your team makes every decision. Calls announce recording, and texts include “Reply STOP.”

We ask for your feedback

We check in with every client about their experience: whether communication improved, whether things got more efficient, and how much time they saved. We only share feedback or results publicly with your permission.

Your options

Pay once for setup. Then choose how much help you want.

Some owners want us to set things up and hand over the keys. Others want us to keep everything running. You can choose either, and change your mind later.

FAQ

Straight answers

Who is Cosmo for?

Property owners in the Los Angeles area, whether you self-manage or work with a property manager, and the property management companies that serve them.

Do I have to switch property management software?

No. Cosmo works alongside AppFolio, Buildium and similar tools. If your software already posts your listings, we improve what goes out rather than replacing anything.

What does setup include?

A review of how calls, messages, maintenance requests and listings are handled today, then your phone line and text-back, assistant scripts, tour booking, request tracking and listing updates. We test everything with you before anything goes live.

Can I really run it myself after setup?

Yes, that's what Option A is for. Everything is built on your own systems and accounts, and you pay your tool costs (like your phone and texting service) directly. We walk your team through it and hand you a step-by-step PDF guide for managing each program, so you won't need us afterward. If you ever want help again, you can switch to month-to-month or an ongoing plan.

Am I locked into a contract?

No. Month-to-month means exactly that: you can change plans or stop any month.

Will the AI assistant say something wrong?

It answers only from the property details you approve and passes anything else to a person. We review its conversations closely in the first weeks so issues get caught early.

Do renters and tenants know they're talking to an AI?

Yes. It introduces itself as an AI assistant, announces call recording, and only calls back people who contacted you first. Texts include “Reply STOP” to opt out.

Does Cosmo do the repairs?

No. We make sure maintenance requests are logged, routed to the right person, and followed up, and that emergencies reach your on-call contact right away. Your vendors still do the work.
