Are you finding less applicants and moves ins/outs given COVID?

Curious! Property managers: are you finding less applicants and moves ins/outs given COVID? Easy assumption to say yes, but would like to hear what you’re experiencing!

Just out of curiosity where are you at?? In California the answer is a big yes

Teri Brantley Brown California so yes

No traffic, phones aren’t ringing — scary times! Tennessee

No! I;m in Buffalo, NY and my phone is ringing off the hook. I also manage a property in Youngstown, NY and people are calling there too. Lot's of people looking to move in. I have had no move outs though

My office is as busy as it’s always been.

We've been pretty slow, but it seems people don't realize we're open and available. Move outs and notices are also slow though, thankfully.

Last week was busy this week has been dead in Louisiana

I have had six leases in the last 10 days. Pretty typical for this time of year. Southern California 1.5 miles to the beach

Nope! 3 move ins, 2 applications for immediate move ins all in the last 7 days

Nope, leased 5 apartments this week. ????

Lakeland fl - busy! Phones ringing and applications per usual .. 2 move ins tomorrow ????

Two rentals, online tours, expecting another rental tomorrow

Very slow traffic for time of year. Philadelphia suburbs

Near St Louis Missouri it is dead. No people, no phones

Tucson.....dead in the water.

I seem to have an influx of applicants and move ins at the moment! Did 4 move ins at the end of February, have 2 tomorrow, 2 Monday, and 3 Tuesday! Glad to fill my building but having a hard time keeping up from home.

In Denver and we arent slowing down yet. Typical for my demographic to wait for the last minute so we shall see what next week brings

Kristen Schultz Stansall, are you guys operating and differently as far as virtual versus face-to-face tours? We are in Broomfield and we are super slow.

Tabatha Nicole Fredianelli yep only doing FaceTime and virtual tours. My properties are in Cap Hill with no models so most prospects are used to not being able to see actual units, just videos. We have a YouTube account and upload vacant videos there.

Thank you for the response! We are doing all those things as well, trying to get creative! Stay Well!

Tabatha Nicole Fredianelli no problem! Be creative and have fun with it, let your personalities come thru in the videos. I waive in the mirrors alot! Stay well!!

Dead. Vacancies will start to rise sharply in coming months.

We are in ND, MN, NE and IA are all of our markets have been very busy with new lease activity and renewal activity. We are blessed to see lower COVID activity than metro markets; although we have 3300 units in Minneapolis market which has seen higher COVID activity. We have been doing self guided tours, virtual tours and online application for the past five weeks. We are documenting Move In and Move Out conditions separate from residents and with discussion expectations in advance with all parties; this to has been very equitable to residents moving in or out.

Active senior property in Hurst, TX and we have about 1 or 2 calls per week and no tours since mid March. Move outs are low to normal but nobody wants to move in right now so they are extending leases or waiting to sell their houses. We have virtual tours but I like the facetime idea a lot. Thank you for the ideas.

Scheduled move outs for April are about 20% of last year, traffic numbers so far this month are down around 50%

Las Vegas/Henderson NV. We are slow. Still getting some, renting a few, losing some. But NOTHING compared to what we normally get. Have a lease-up too - maybe 1-3 traffic calls a day. But not a lot of new rentals. What's everyone doing to push traffic/rentals??

We seem to have alot of folks who want to move in asap. I dont have enough units to go around. I took 10 approved applications in the last 2 weeks.
