Here we go! Let’s not rant but this topic always gets people amped-up! My opinion, if I text you at 10p and ask for a budget re-forecast for six props - of course I don’t expect you to re-forecast the budget at 10p. But I do expect a “got it, let’s talk in the AM - good night”. If I send a text at 10p and ask to if you’re available to meet for coffee in the AM, pretty benign I’d say. With that said, some employers are just irrational, psychotic... Show more

Being helpful is one thing but it can lead to a: no good deed goes unpunished, if you aren’t careful.
:::LEASE UP QUESTION::: How do you put urgency to submit that app on the guest?? We do a decent job already with things like $99 reduced fees for look and lease, but looking for other unique tactics. We are a luxury building. The homes really sell themselves. Just wanting to do even better!

If you have a ton of units or if it's obvious that you aren't going to fill up fast... you can do something similar with the available selection or inventory in a certain building filling up... We ran a campaign along the lines of Apply today -- current inventory is at its largest now, and that won't last long...
To that note you can also play into Limited Availability: for example, add a message on the site such as Only a few apartments left in this building!
Going further down the rabbit hole, campaigns and offers can be another way to create a sense of urgency if they are paired well with a hard end date. I.e. Apply before 05/11/2024 and we'll cover your move-in costs etc etc.
Lastly, add a sense of urgency in CTAs (call to action's) on your... Show more
Friends - I need your expertise. ‼️ Is it onsite or on-site when referring to property management? Hyphen or no hyphen? 🚨 Merriam Webster says on-site should be hyphenated. The Cambridge dictionary includes onsite (without the hyphen) and on-site (hyphenated), while the American Heritage dictionary only lists onsite (no hyphen).
On-site is the preferred use when being used as an adjective or adverb before a noun, as is off-site. On site or off site are preferred use after a noun or pronoun when used as a location phrase versus referring directly to the noun.
Onsite is accepted more these days in American English as hyphen use fades, but offsite is less accepted in the dehyphenization "movement."
Technically onsite or on-site are both correct, but on-site is still, for now, the preferred grammatical term.

One of the biggest benefits of apartment living is maintaining a resident's apartment. Residents don't have to try to find a contractor, don't have to wade through reviews, don't have to price shop, and don't even have to alter their schedule to be there while their problem is fixed. But do we do a great job of showcasing that value beyond saying, "we provide maintenance"? Tony Sousa recently wrote, "Maintenance is your ...

1. No one is taking advantage of SMS after inquiry. I was called many times but not texted once. And very few have an opt-in to text on the inquiry page. With text being the #1 method of communication, this was unusual.2. No one is taking advantage of email automation. Send the text confirmation and then follow up with a more robust email. Email is the perfect place to push the differentiators and include content. Let them know through email. 3. ...
A pet-friendly approach is commendable and does wonders for an apartment community. It makes the property more appealing to a wider pool of renters and gives residents a chance to connect through their pets. It also means more wear and tear. Pets not only are present in designated pet areas—they'll also regularly traverse a property's other outdoor spaces and common areas. Naturally, they also spend many hours within the apartment home in which ...

I am a hustler, I can adapt to change and I’m very responsive to texts, but I turn off text notifications in the later evening in order to better manage and separate my professional & personal life . If I don’t get hired because of it, then good luck to the next available candidate .
Me personally, I use focus tracks on the iPhone. After 6pm any text or email notifications from EVERYONE work related is automatically silenced! Phone calls will come through for a few key people but otherwise, work notifications are completely silenced from 6pm to 8am! I’ve used it for years, I talk about it in interviews, and if any employer has an issue with it- I don’t move forward with the interview process! It’s plain and simple - work life balance!
Our property and maintenance managers do have company phones and are expected to pick up calls, not texts
A rule I've gone by since I was a child - if you wouldn't call your grandma at that time of night, you don't need to be contacting anyone at that time of night. It's rude.
