What were you looking to achieve by adding RentSearch. to your properties?

By adding RentSearch., we were hoping to increase the organic traffic to our properties, generate higher brand awareness through branded and non-branded campaigns, and increase conversion rates.

What challenges did you face prior to implementation of RentSearch.?

Prior to using RentSearch., we faced a number of challenges. We experienced low response from ineffective and expensive ads in the past. Our leasing team was also challenged with missing calls, low appointment conversion as well as lack of qualified traffic.

Was there a noticeable difference in call and email activity?

Yes, we were happy to see a noticeable difference in both areas. We experienced a 30% increase in calls and email activity for all of our communities.

Can you describe our performance vs your previous vendor?

We previously managed digital marketing and advertising in-house, so there was no consistency with managing ad campaigns. Our teams often faced double the work as they juggled other responsibilities, and did not have a digital marketing expert onsite or multifamily B2C expertise. This made our efforts more costly, more time-consuming and they were not results-oriented.

Is there something in particular that stands about RentSearch.?

The attribution works. The Rent. team’s consistency is superb, and they always stay on top of my requests. The Google campaigns that we have launched support our lease-ups within one year. We started and completed three lease up communities during COVID with Rent. services.

Any final comments or facts you would like to share about RentSearch.?

The Rent. team is consistent, communicative, and extremely well-qualified. They are experts in digital marketing as well as pay-per-click campaigns, and we have experienced the results to prove it. Our partnership with Rent. has been incredibly valuable thus far, and we look forward to leveraging more of their services for marketing in the multifamily market.

Thank you!
