Why regular photos help

Small upkeep issues can become expensive repairs.

Stay closer to routine maintenance, even when you manage your rental from a distance.

Address small problems sooner.

Photos can help reveal visible leaks, neglected filters, and other concerns before they become bigger repair bills.

Spend less time chasing updates.

Keep requests, reminders, submitted photos, and review history together. See what arrived and what still needs a follow-up.

Give tenants a record of their care.

Dated photos document upkeep and property condition if questions come up later. Both sides have a clearer record to refer to.

How Roykan works

You request it. Your tenant photographs it. Roykan keeps the record.

Start with one property and one routine maintenance area.

1

Set a recurring request

Add a starting photo, explain what to show, and choose when the photo inspection repeats. Invite your tenant to their property.

2

Your tenant sends photos

Reminders link to the assigned inspection. Your tenant follows the instructions and submits photos of the requested area.

3

Review and keep the history

Compare with the starting photo, approve the submission or request a redo, and return to the dated record whenever you need it.

A shared record of property care

Useful for both sides of the rental.

Property manager

Stay informed between visits.

Whether you manage one rental or several, review routine upkeep from anywhere and follow up when a photo shows something that needs attention.

Focused requests. Private access.

Document upkeep with your tenant’s privacy in mind.

Questions

Simple answers before you start.

How is this different from texting for photos?

Roykan keeps recurring requests, reminders, due dates, photos, and review history together by property. You can see which photo inspections are ready to review and which are still due.

What if a tenant does not send a photo?

You can see which inspections are due or overdue and follow up. Roykan sends reminders, but tenants still need to participate and submit the requested photos.

What if a photo is unclear or misleading?

Compare it with the starting photo and request a redo when something is unclear. Roykan records when a photo is submitted; photos alone cannot establish every detail of a property’s condition.

Do photos replace an in-person inspection?

Photo inspections help you review visible upkeep between visits. Hidden problems, safety concerns, and anything that needs a closer look may still require an in-person inspection.

How does this help the tenant?

Tenants keep dated photos of the care they provide and the condition of their home. Focused requests can reduce extra routine visits and give both sides a shared record when questions come up.

Is Roykan free?

Yes. Property managers can create a free account and start using photo inspections, reminders, and photo review. No credit card is required. Tenants join through an invitation from their property manager.

Will I be charged later?

You will not be automatically enrolled in a paid subscription. If paid plans are introduced, you will see the pricing and choose whether to subscribe.
