Lessen

Scottsdale, AZ · lessen.com

Lessen's homepage describes it as the rebranded, technology-driven successor of a property maintenance network operating a marketplace of an affiliate vendor network across commercial and residential real estate, headquartered in Scottsdale, AZ with a secondary office in Chicago, IL. The site's client and vendor login links still resolve to smsassist.com subdomains, consistent with the publicly known history that Lessen acquired and rebranded SMS Assist in 2023, but no dated press release or news article confirming that event was reached within the scrape budget, so no changes entry was added. An OSHA establishment search for Lessen returned no matching inspections. A BBB search for Lessen returned only unrelated, similarly spelled businesses (Larsen, Lassen, Lesson-named companies) with no listing for Lessen Inc itself, so BBB status is none_found rather than checked. An OpenCorporates search returned an hCaptcha challenge and could not be completed. An Indeed search for the company name returned 10 open postings spanning Arizona, Georgia, and Illinois.
