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.

The Results Matter Radio Show on Business RadioX Hosts Panel Discussion on Sustainability

Friday, October 12th, 2012


Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) October 08, 2012

On Tuesday October 2nd, 2012, Elizabeth Gordon, host of Burr & Formans Results Matter radio on Business RadioX was joined in the downtown Atlanta studio by the Communications and Project Manager from the Atlanta Mayors Office of Sustainability, Aaron Bastian along with Tom Boeck, a principal with Sustainable Options, Eryn Emerich, the Managing Director and Sustainability Officer at Footprint Sustainable Talent and Susie Spivey-Tilson, a LEED Accredited Professional and ISO 14001 Internal Auditor with tvsdesign.

The group discussed everything the Better Buildings Challenge and sustainability is important to the city of Atlanta as well as what sustainability really means and how it applies to existing and new building projects and what the job market looks like for sustainability professionals.

Bastian explained that true sustainability is not just good for the environment, but good for the economy as well and that allows the city to flourish.

Tom Boeck of Sustainable Options agreed explaining that if making a building project sustainable bankrupts a company it is meaningless, so he works to help companies build projects that are both sustainable and within the budget. He further explained that in this economy where there is high vacancy and low occupancy, buildings with sustainable features are able to compete better because the provide a better long term proposition for tenants.

Host Elizabeth Gordon questioned what certification really adds to the mix, and both Boeck and consultant Susie Spivey agreed that certification is proof to consumers that you did what you said you were going to do. Susie also said that design has gotten to a point where good design is green design.

Eryn Emerich added to the discussion explaining that as more and more consumers demand sustainability from the companies they do business with, the job market for sustainable professionals grows. She noted that she is seeing an upswing in the demand for talent in the field and is encouraged by the growth she is seeing nationwide.
