I’ve written about this before, but feel this is a drum that can’t be beaten to often.  As apartment operators providing a full set of information to resident prospects is a leasing prerequisite.  The main bullets on the subject are:

Detailed community information such including directions to your property, local shopping, services, entertainment, government facilities, schools, utilities, cable television, major employers, and points of interest. The more the prospect can be positioned to decide this is the home for them the better.

Detailed apartment community information including amenities in the unit, pools, laundry, fitness facilities, playgrounds, picnic areas, walking trails, tennis courts, etc.

Information about the staff and attitude toward residents. The extent they can begin to develop a sense of relationship can make a major difference in their decision to make your apartment homes their home.

Information about pricing, operating hours, and to cost benefits your apartment community may have over competitors can provide the competitive edge your need to lease an apartment unit.

Finally, make it convenient and nonthreatening to make a buy decision. Provide alternatives for connection. The contact should allow the prospect to contact the community or if they are inclined, allow them to complete a full billable application. Completed correctly, we’ve seen communities close 10% or more of their leases based on this approach.
