Apartments24-7.com, a provider of interactive Web sites for the apartment industry, today announced an online Lease Quote System and the integration of interactive Google maps.
The new Lease Quote System allows leasing consultants to interact with rental prospects by producing prorated lease quotes directly from their Web sites for available and future available apartments that are displayed for rent.
The online quote system is designed to be used for both “walk-in” traffic, where printed quotes are produced in less than a minute. Quotes can also be sent by e-mail in response to phone inquiries.
When a quote is generated, the system sends an e-mail postcard to prospects that includes pictures and lists additional features about the community, according to the Apartments 24-7.com announcement.
The e-mail postcard contains links to the community Website that makes it easy for prospects to get more information about apartment availability, photos, fill out an online application, view floor plans and schedule an appointment. Two more follow up postcards are sent automatically to help keep prospects informed about apartment availability.
Lease quotes are archived in a database for follow-up with prospects and reviews by senior management.
Apartments24-7.com also announced today that it has developed an application for Google maps that displays the location of the apartment community relative to schools, shopping malls and parks.
Since 2001, Apartments24-7.com has produced over 750 interactive Websites for major multifamily management companies across the nation, the company reported.
