Problem
Short-term rental owners and property managers often struggle to enforce house rules remotely, leading to unauthorized parties, indoor smoking, and excessive noise that cause property damage, costly cleanups, and negative guest reviews. Without real-time visibility into what happens inside their properties, owners discover issues only after the damage is done, making policy enforcement and dispute resolution difficult.
Solution
Tundra Sensors provides a smart property monitoring platform that detects smoking, noise disturbances, and occupancy levels in real time, alerting owners instantly via phone, email, or dashboard. The system automatically sends messages to tenants when they break apartment rules, allowing issues to be addressed without immediate owner intervention. Sensors are designed specifically for short-term rentals and integrate with the Tundra Smarthost platform, providing time-stamped evidence that strengthens insurance claims, supports fine enforcement, and resolves OTA disputes. The system also offers an optional 24/7 call center upgrade for emergency response and enhanced property management assistance.
