Why property management operators use the ltv:cac ratio.

Calculate the ratio of customer lifetime value to acquisition cost. Industry benchmark is 3:1 — below that, you're subsidizing growth; above 5:1, you're probably under-investing in acquisition.

Property management operators run on thin margins, fragmented systems, and labor-intensive workflows. SAZ helps PMs modernize their systems and embed AI where it matters — tenant intake, leasing, maintenance, and owner reporting.
