We travel to Savannah for installation, coordinate Chatham County low-voltage permitting, run category cable to lobby panels through brick and historic structures with care, install Key Locker units for short-term rental handover, and configure Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, or AppFolio integration so leasing workflows stay automatic.
Savannah ButterflyMX context
Savannah has two distinct ButterflyMX use cases. In the Historic District, owners converting older buildings into boutique multifamily or short-term-rental portfolios need an intercom that does not require running new analog phone lines through brick or running fobs through a property manager's office every time a guest checks in. ButterflyMX's Key Locker pairs with the Video Intercom for clean Airbnb and vacation-rental handover. South of Forsyth Park, the Starland District has new mid-rise construction where developers spec ButterflyMX during design because the property management integrations cut leasing-team workload. JBT travels to Savannah for installations and supports Chatham County permitting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does JBT install ButterflyMX in Savannah?
Yes — JBT is an authorized ButterflyMX installer serving the Savannah market, including Historic District boutique conversions, Starland District new construction, and mid-rise multifamily across the broader Chatham County corridor. We travel to Savannah for installation and commissioning, coordinate Chatham County low-voltage permitting, and configure Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, or AppFolio integration so leasing workflows stay automatic. Because much of our Savannah work is inside brick and historic structures, we take extra care running category cable without damaging original building materials, and we plan each trip around the property's occupancy schedule.
How does ButterflyMX's Key Locker work for short-term rental turnover in the Historic District?
The Key Locker pairs with the Video Intercom to solve a specific Historic District problem: owners running boutique multifamily or short-term-rental portfolios in converted older buildings don't want to hand off a physical key or fob at every guest check-in. With Key Locker, a guest's access is generated for their stay dates and automatically expires at checkout, and the owner or property manager doesn't need to be on-site to manage the handover. JBT installs this combination specifically for Savannah's Airbnb and vacation-rental conversions near the Historic District and River Street.
Can ButterflyMX be installed in an older brick building without running new phone lines?
Yes, and this is actually a strength of ButterflyMX in Savannah's Historic District. Because the system runs over the ButterflyMX cloud rather than an analog phone network, there's no need to run new telephone infrastructure through original brick and masonry. JBT still has to run category cable from the entry panel back to a network point, but that's a single cable path rather than a phone line per unit, and we plan the route carefully to minimize impact on historic building fabric and finishes that owners want preserved for landmark and preservation-district compliance.
What does a ButterflyMX install cost in Savannah?
Historic District boutique conversions and Starland District new construction have different cost drivers. Historic buildings often carry a premium for careful cable routing through brick and masonry and for coordinating around occupied short-term-rental units, while new construction in Starland is priced more like a standard build with the panel and PMS integration scoped into the GC's rough-in. Adding Key Locker for STR turnover or a Package Room for a larger building also changes the number, and Chatham County permitting timelines can shift the schedule too.
