AppFolio Unveils AI-Native Overhaul to Reshape Property Management

AppFolio Inc. (NASDAQ:APPF) is one of the most oversold mid-cap stocks to buy according to hedge funds.

On October 14, 2025, AppFolio introduced a major strategic shift in its platform with the launch of Real Estate Performance Management, an AI-native architecture designed to move property management from manual, task-based workflows to a performance-oriented model. The system is built on three integrated layers – record, action, and growth –  aiming to help property managers optimize outcomes across leasing, maintenance, and resident engagement.

As part of the rollout, AppFolio unveiled new AI-powered modules under what it calls Realm-X Performers. These include tools to automate leasing from lead to signed contract, manage maintenance requests while prioritizing resident satisfaction, and handle communications tied to leases, payments, and renewals. The company also introduced a new guided move-in experience called Resident Onboarding Lift, developed in partnership with Second Nature, which it claims will streamline transitions and improve retention.

AppFolio Inc. (NASDAQ:APPF) is a California-based SaaS company that builds cloud software for the real estate industry. Its platform helps property managers run leasing, accounting, communication, and maintenance workflows in one unified system. With a growing focus on AI integration and mobile-first design, AppFolio continues to expand its role in modernizing real estate operations.
