Motivated tenants look to make leasing decisions quickly. The Zenplace Leasing Platform helps those tenants ready and able to make a quick decision access and apply to your property within hours versus days. A new tenant describes their experience below.


Tenant testimonial:


"My husband and I were looking for a house in the San Francisco Bay Area to build a future with our 3 year old son. We lived in a 2 bedroom apartment that worked great for our commute to tech companies about 15 minutes away. On a Saturday morning, while perusing Zillow, I saw a 3 bedroom house within a 5 minute drive from our current rental! Since I had the day free to search for our next place, I was hoping for a slot in the afternoon. I sent a note to the property and got ready to wait for a response, worried I may have to wait until Monday after work. I got an email and a text notification to see the rental about two minutes later! The text read the house is hosting showings via a self access lockbox and instructed me to select a time. I pulled up the page to schedule and found there were several 20-minute time slots available throughout the day. I chose the one in an hour, and we headed to go see the rental.


Upon arrival at the property, we text the numbers on the lockbox label to the scheduling system and received a 4 digit code to open the lockbox. We entered and took our time exploring the house. I enjoyed it as I did not feel any pressure to make a decision and could explore our potential new home at our own pace. As we were locking up, I received a text message to rate the property and fill out an application. What I had anticipated to be a whole day of house searching turned out to be about 2 hours to find our next house!"


If your current leasing process doesn't allow for fast response to tenant inquiries and easy access for property visits, you are missing out on qualified tenants looking to move quick. Review a demo of the platform at zenplace.com/howitworks/ and find out how Zenplace could work for you!

As a prospective tenant scrolls through the listings, the photo you display can make the difference between then clicking on your ad or going to the next. Having many photos for renters to look through will allow them to virtually tour the rental property in the time of social distancing. At Zenplace , our leasing management team will often be asked for more photos of properties prior to moving to the next steps of filling out their information to view it or submit an application. You want to ensure you are giving the best first impression possible with clean and quality photos, so here are a few tricks that will help your pictures work for you!

Successfully Marketing Rental Properties Tenants on Their Terms - Zenplace Success Story

Property Owner: Symon Property address: Lennox Ave Oakland, CA My apartment in Oakland was rented out within weeks rather than the month or two I had anticipated.
