Liss Property Group Implements Respage Community to Enhance Resident Communication, Generate Leads

    GLADWYNE, PA, December 09, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Liss Property Group has partnered with 4 Walls as one of the first adopters of Respage Community, a turnkey service that uses social media to help property managers communicate with residents, improve resident engagement and attract new residents. Utilizing a proprietary resident website platform, the Liss Respage Community site provides the opportunity for resident interaction through a resident blog, an events calendar to track upcoming events, and an interactive resident poll. Weekly blog content is also automatically posted to Liss Property's Facebook page, Twitter, and email feeds to further engage residents.

According to 4 Walls CEO Ellen Thompson, "Liss Property Group has always been recognized as an early adopter of technology and has implemented a best of breed technology platform to enhance operations, generate leads, and provide resident services. Unlike many other early adopters of Respage, Liss' properties do not have clubhouses or an extensive calendar of events. Liss Property Group is using Respage as a virtual platform to build community among its residents. Working with Jason Liss has expanded my own thinking about Respage's potential to help create vibrant communities using virtual spaces instead of physical ones."

Since Liss's Respage Community is updated and maintained by the 4 Walls team, Liss Property Group has been able to add this amenity without additional burden to the property managers or leasing staff.

Liss Property Group also recently engaged 4 Walls' website design and marketing division, 4 Marketshare, to launch a redesigned, user-friendly website for prospective renters. The new site includes information about the company and its fourteen properties in Northeast Philadelphia, and it provides the option to schedule a visit with a leasing agent to tour a Liss property and apply for an apartment online. The new site also makes it easy for current residents to pay rent and send maintenance requests online, as well as link directly to Liss's Respage Community. Liss Property Group also utilizes 4 Walls' Internet listing service, www.4walls.us, to generate rental leads.

Thompson adds, "The mission of 4 Walls is to help multifamily property owners and managers attract and retain residents. Respage Community is the latest addition to our family of products. Billy, Jason, and Jordan Liss are very careful about the partners they choose, and we couldn't be more delighted that all of our products meet their high standards."
