You have the
floor plans and/or blueprints for a 20 or more unit multi-family property. It
is weeks (maybe months) before construction or renovation begins. Your goal is
to have every available unit leased before your “ready” or delivery date.
Perhaps you
own and operate large apartment buildings and want to keep every unit under
lease. Even if fully rented now, leases expire and some valued tenants will
relocate, creating future vacancies.
Either way, currently
you are not able to do advance showings of available units in order to get them
all leased. However, having a leasing office or model apartment costs you for
the space, the staff, and maintenance every month it is needed. Paying
commissions to a broker may get the job done, but results in thousands of
dollars out of your pocket. As tenants come and go, those thousands in tenant
acquisition costs continue to add up.
FIRST IN
Real Estate Marketing has a complete solution for apartment building owners
(and leasing managers). This solution reduces or eliminates the need for the
aforementioned ongoing costs.
It starts
with our “Custom Interactive Virtual Staging”. The tech team starts with your
floor plans and/or blueprints. There is no need for the property to exist, or
to visit the property site. Created to scale, the tech team showcases the
specifics of each room or area of the property. You could have selected rooms
be done, such as bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen. You could do a “before and
after” to showcase a renovation. You can show “Behind the Walls” to feature
integration of HVAC, Solar Panels, or retrofitting. If your units offer a
spectacular view, it can also be shown as part of the created “tour”.
The strength
is that a potential tenant can literally do a lot more using this feature than
if they were standing inside the actual property!
Custom
Interactive Virtual Staging can be used to impress:
+ Investors,
Potential Partners
+
Contractors, Installers
+ Potential
Tenants
Perhaps the
most popular of the amenities is our ability to add Selection Panels for the
viewing experience. One example is a Paint Panel which allows potential tenants
to experience specific rooms while able to choose among a panel of wall colors.
They would see how certain colors would match their furniture.
Other examples
are Selection Panels for flooring choices, fixtures, and/or furniture styles. These
are custom designed to help potential tenants envision themselves and their
possessions being in your property.
Meanwhile,
contractors and installers can use this to determine how and where to handle
the job they are assigned.
Once
prepared to meet your specifications, the next step is to implement your
method(s) to showcase your property. Your choices of methods include:
+ Online
tours
+ In-person
presentations
+ Virtual
Reality goggles
Online Tours allow potential tenants to do a 360 tour at
any time, and (if you choose) be able to apply while still visiting your
website. This amazing technology allows for family members in different
locations to login and “tour” simultaneously!
In-person presentations allow you to showcase the
property on any size monitor or screen at sales offices, conference rooms,
conventions, or anywhere you have potential tenants.
Virtual Reality goggles can be utilized to let potential
tenants to walk or ride through your unit(s) as if they are actually there by
doing a 360 tour. They have the ability to change colors, flooring, and/or
whatever you use Selection Panels for.
Once fully leased, this ongoing feature can be used to
showcase for upcoming vacancies. (If a tenant is moving out at the end of
March, you could let them experience the unit long before its April 15th
availability.)
If and when you operate other apartment buildings, chances
are we can modify your Custom Interactive Virtual Staging for future use for a
lower cost. Therefore, your cost to fill “new” vacancies will be even less.
All you need are floor plans and/or blueprints to request
your free estimate. Our team will take it from there. You could be ready to
pre-lease or lease using this custom program within 30 to 60 days!
