Navigating New Resident Screening Legislation

Strengthen Your Brand Through Your Leasing Process

A company’s brand is often determined by the way its employees handle communications. The initial interactions between your operation and its prospects during the leasing process is vital to your residents’ experiences and the perception of your property. To gain insight on how to create a stronger brand, Mike Sullivant of SBD Housing joined the podcast to discuss the role technology and content creation play in driving the leasing process.

Increasing Your Lease Renewal Rates

There are many facets to the lifecycle of a resident, but few are as essential as the lease renewal stage. Deciding to move is costly for residents as well as the property owner. So, it’s crucial to create a process that helps keep tenants satisfied and renting from your business. This can be especially challenging when there’s an increase in rent prices. John Rapisarda of Roofstock had a conversation with Joe about his experience creating a successful lease renewal process. He shared what works and what doesn’t.

Chris Griesinger, Director of Customer Experience at LCS—Rent Manager’s parent company—discussed the challenges and solutions for property management communications. Chris and his teams work with our customers to improve their operations and greatly streamline their communication efforts. They also show customers how to handle mass communication through Rent Manager.
