ROSS Management Boosts Online Results with Property Solutions Single, Open Platform

Saturday, February 15th, 2014


Lehi, UT (PRWEB) January 09, 2014

ROSS Management Services, 12,000-unit multifamily residential affiliate of Maryland-based ROSS Companies, announced strong performance in online participation after the launch of Property Solutions single, open platform. Since implementation began in October, the company has seen more than 60 percent resident participation in online rent payments at select properties, and a portfolio-wide average of 50 percent conversion from lead to completed online application.

Our overall goal is to enhance the customer experience and to make it easy for them to do business with us, said Elaine De Lude, Chief Marketing Officer at ROSS. Migrating to Property Solutionswhere everything works together as onemakes everything seamless for the customer, from the time they reach the website, all the way through the leasing process, until move-out and beyond.

ROSS uses Property Solutions free, open API to customize their online experience and integrate their data in real time without charge. It allows the customer to interact uniquely with a particular multifamily property website without leaving or redirecting to a separate page for tools like applications, payments, pricing and availability. The result is higher conversion and lower drop-off, as De Lude explained, Its one-stop shopping for them. They dont have to leave our site.

According to ROSS, the freedom of Property Solutions open platform benefits their bottom line beyond the integration fees that typically accompany multifamily software. Theres such a quick influx of innovation happening, multifamily companies need to have a foundation of technology that provides flexibility. If some new product is launched, and you have a platform that doesnt allow you the flexibility to adapt, then youre stuck, said De Lude. Especially when other stakeholders, such as property owners or even residents, show interest in a new piece of technology, if your company doesnt have a platform that can support that then it really puts you at a competitive disadvantagenot only at the property level, but the corporate level as well.

Property Solutions maintains a long-standing commitment to free third-party integrations and provides open API documentation for an array of web services. This led to a smooth collaboration between third-party designers, Property Solutions, and ROSS when the company launched its new website for The Crest at Congressional Plaza in December. Their cooperative approach speaks highly towards all aspects of customer service, said De Lude. Complete information on Property Solutions’ product offering and company background is found at http://www.propertysolutions.com.
