Schottenstein Property Group:
Custom Database Integration That Keeps Leasing PDFs Current

How we connected SPG’s property database to their WordPress site so every leasing PDF updates automatically.

The Issue

Schottenstein Property Group owns interests in 100+ properties across 23 states, each with its own page and a leasing PDF, the most important sales collateral for prospective tenants. Every change to the property database meant assigning a task in Monday.com, then an in-house associate or outside developer updating the PDF by hand. When tenants moved in or out, the PDFs fell behind.

The Approach

Instead of speeding up the manual process, we removed it. We connected the website directly to SPG’s property database so the database, not a task list, decides what every leasing PDF shows.

The Build

Custom WordPress functionality that reads the property database and regenerates each property’s leasing PDF automatically. When a tenant moves in or out, the site plan’s tenant list, available suites and store logos update on their own. It also pulls Street View images, keeps the sitemap current, and flags mismatches between the website and the database.

The Outcome

When new information is added to the property database, the leasing PDFs update automatically, with no Monday.com task and no manual edits. SPG saves 50+ hours a year of manual data entry by an in-house associate or outside developer, and prospective tenants always see accurate, up-to-date information.
