Holiday season is upon us! During this time of year, the rental market typically slows down; but, you can still take advantage of these cold, winter months by taking a good, hard look at your current marketing strategy to ensure you are still one step above your competition. The first thing you should do is evaluate your current website. If you don’t feel it is performing to your liking, then it may be time to evaluate alternate options so that you’re not approaching a brand new year with the same old results.

Rentbot is here to help you get started, and we are guaranteed to produce results.

Here are a few of the wonderful benefits that we offer our customers:

Responsive website design

Now a days, adaptability is not only important, but necessary when designing a website, especially considering the rise of mobile technology. That is why we design each Rentbot site so that it effortlessly responds to each user’s environment and behavior, no matter which device they are using—be it smart phone, tablet, desktop or laptop.

What does all of this mean for you? Well, considering that 91% of all apartment shoppers are likely to use their mobile devise during their next leasing cycle, you’ll need to ensure that each and every one of those prospects who visit your site receive the best first impression with hopes that they will ultimately become your next tenant.

Search engine optimization

By investing in Rentbot, you’ll not only receive a site with a beautiful, custom layout, but we will also ensure that your prospects can find you when they need to. While in the design phase, we carefully optimize your website so that it is highly searchable and will rank well in organic search engine results pages. This enables our customers to “seal the deal” much faster.

Online functionalities

When it comes to apartment life, renters tend to prefer convenience.  This concept extends to payments, maintenance requests and even the initial application process. At Rentbot, we not only understand the importance of convenience, but we go the extra mile to ensure that each of our sites will not only save our customers time on the back end, but their tenants as well. This is why each custom Rentbot website is designed with a seamless payment system which accepts credit cards and bank drafts, so that your tenants can pay their monthly rents with just the click of a button.

We also know that, oftentimes, the maintenance repair process can be quite frustrating. We try to remove some of this stress for both parties involved by automating the maintenance request process online. With your new Rentbot site, your tenants will now be able to note their maintenance issues online via a simple form, and they will be delivered to your inbox almost instantly. You’re then able to confirm and prioritize your team’s jobs in no time.

When we mention online functionalities, we cannot forget the most important tool—online applications! We make sure you catch all of your prospects when they’re most engaged with your property. After viewing the real time unit availability and property amenities on your Rentbot site, prospects are then able to complete a simple, convenient application online so that your leasing agents can follow up with each prospect sooner than later. As we all know in the rental industry, timing is everything.

Money-back guarantee

Rentbot offers all of these features and more; but, perhaps the most popular benefit that we offer is our money-back guarantee. If you’re not satisfied with your custom Rentbot site for any reason within 90 days, we’ll refund you every penny. It doesn’t get any much better than that!

Ring in a little holiday cheer for your tenants with a new Rentbot site, and start the New Year off in the right direction! You’ll produce more qualified leads and sign more leases if you do—we guarantee it.
