Resite Online's Demo Apartment Community Mobile Website

Resite Online’s Mobile Leasing product includes 3 distinct pieces that can be used for marketing and 2-way communication between prospective residents and your apartment community.

Mobile Community Website
Resite’s mobile websites work seamlessly with your apartment community’s existing website. Mobile users are automatically redirected to the mobile version of your website, while regular desktop users are directed to the full version of your website. Resite’s mobile websites are compatible with all major mobile platforms, and have been designed with the mobile user in mind. Mobile website features include:

• Photo Gallery
• Floor Plan listing with images and pricing
• Community Features
• Text Directions
• Click to call
• Text to Friend
• Mobile Guestcard (integrated with Resite’s LeasingPath^SM product)

SMS Messaging from Desktop Website
Resite provides desktop website users with the ability to have property information and directions texted directly to their cell phone via 2 ways:

• Send-to-Phone enables users to enter their cell number on an apartment community’s website and be sent the property’s contact information, short description and mobile site url, in addition to a prompt to request further information like a PDF flyer or directions. All of this information is texted to the user’s cell phone regardless of whether or not their cell phone is WAP capable. That user’s cell number is then captured as a lead.
• Directions-to-Phone enables users to enter their phone number and starting address on an apartment community’s website and be texted step-by-step directions to the property. The user’s cell number is then captured as a lead.

Keyword/Short Code SMS Messaging
Resite’s keyword / short code SMS messaging is similar to Send-to-Phone but can be used on any existing media or advertisement like a banner sign or print ad. The prospective resident sees the ad and is prompted to text a Keyword to a Short Code. They then receive the same text message as the user’s who choose to Send-to-Phone from a desktop website, and their cell number is captured as a lead.

We are consultants and partners that work with our clients to enhance their business objectives, always striving to provide new ideas to help streamline operations while providing best-in-class service.
2. Resite Online’s engineering and web-development and application engineering team is in-house. We do not use out-sourced resources. “Made in America” This means your development team has intimate knowledge of your project and can quickly respond to issues related to your projects. Technology is an ever changing business and our developers will work closely and directly with you to ensure your needs are met. This dedication also gives us the unique position to advise our partners on new developments within the technology sector.

7. Lastly, we consider our partners as instrumental to the design and operation of our business. We are committed to maintain an open and flexible partnership to consistently meet your businesses changing needs. We honor that commitment today and look forward to being your partners in the future.

Resite Online’s focus, and our business mission, is to build, deliver and support web-based applications  (Marketing Websites, ResidentHub portals, LeasingPath guestcards and lease applications) that enable the property management organizations to effectively meet the demands of the new renter. These renter demands must be met in a way that effectively allows the property management company to operate in the electronic, Internet based environment these renters and residents will use to transact and receive services.

Resite Online is very different from property management software providers in that we focus strictly on systems that directly power interaction between property management organizations and renters. We are different from Internet listing services (ILSs) in that we provide systems that continue the interaction throughout the entire lease cycle with variable consumer entry points. We are different from advertising agencies and design firms in that we create web-based transaction environments rather than online brochures. We are different from traditional technology consultants in that we have proven technology platforms focused on the multifamily industry and a talented, artistic creative team. Graphical user interface and workflow management are our specialties. The merger of aesthetic design and powerful, scalable, technology is at the core of our mission.

Our business mission and our product development philosophy are supported through a solid understanding of the challenges property management organizations face in adopting new technologies and business processes. Our product development philosophy is driven by two primary goals.

1. We must meet the demands for easy use expected by renters and required by property management.
2. We must deliver robust, flexible applications that will deliver operating efficiencies, performance improvement and sustainability for our partners.

The marriage of these two goals creates products that are easy to use and highly effective.

We also recognize that applications alone do not deliver value. They must be coupled with effective roll out and implementation planning, effective training and quality ongoing support to ensure that the partner’s users are effective in adopting the new business tools. The delivery of these support services ensures that the property management company receives the return on investment they anticipated in committing to changing their business processes and strategies through these applications.

Resite Online, a privately founded software development company solely focused on the multi-family industry, has been in business since 2001, and has helped many diverse organizations leverage Internet based applications in preparation for the changes taking place in the current and future renter expectations and new-media technologies necessary for apartment professionals to maintain their competitive advantage.

There is a paradigm shift taking place in the apartment industry, driven by the convergence of Internet based technologies and the changing expectations of renters and residents about the role of the Internet in their day to day lives. This shift in renter and resident expectations is having a direct impact on the processes and tools apartment owners and managers will need to use to acquire, activate and service current and future apartment residents.

Resite Online’s focus, and our business mission, is to build, deliver and support web-based applications that enable property management organizations to effectively meet the demands of the new renter. These renter demands must be met in a way that effectively allows the property management company to operate in the electronic, Internet based environment these renters and residents will use to transact and receive services.

These services are delivered primarily through four web-based platforms:
•    MarketingWebsites – custom and template website designs for apartment communities and management companies with built-in content management system, mobile websites, and text solutions.
•    LeasingPath – online guestcards, lease applications with online payment of application fees and deposits, credit screening and BlueMoon integration.
•    ResidentHub – resident portal with flexible online rent payment solutions, maintenance requests, utility connection, renters insurance sign-up, property management software integrations, and more.
