Breakwater Operations is a US-led, Lagos-based operations company. We exist for one reason: to remove the back-office weight from independent residential property managers so they can focus on growth.
Most outsourcing options give you a virtual assistant and a Zoom call. We deploy a dedicated operations pod — a structured team with defined roles, SLA accountability, and daily reporting — that functions as an extension of your property management company.
Every pod operates under a US-based operations framework. Your clients communicate through your brand. Your workflows run on your software. We operate inside your system, not ours.
We work inside AppFolio, Buildium, Yardi, Rent Manager, and Propertyware. We handle maintenance coordination, rent collection follow-up, and vendor communication — the exact tasks consuming 30–40% of an operator's week.
Breakwater is structured with clear role accountability at every layer — from client-facing sales to daily pod operations. Each function is owned by a dedicated role, not shared across a generalist team.
Independent residential property managers are running a labor-intensive business with a lean team. The back-office doesn't stop — but growth does, when the operator is buried in it.
Operators at the 100–400 door level are personally handling tenant calls, vendor dispatch, and work order tracking. We own this end-to-end.
Late payment outreach, payment plan tracking, and delinquency logging consumes hours every week. Our pod handles it with documented accountability.
Dispatching, confirming ETAs, following up on completion, and closing work orders in the PM software — we track every step so operators don't have to.
The operators we work with want to grow. They can't when their week is consumed by reactive operations. A pod frees that capacity immediately.
No contracts. No commitment. Just a working pod handling your maintenance coordination and rent follow-up for two weeks — so you can see the results before you decide.
