Respage Announces Ratings and Review Integration with HotPads

    PHILADELPHIA, PA, October 17, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Respage, a premier marketing provider for the multifamily industry, has partnered with HotPads, an apartment and home search platform for renters in urban areas across the United States, to create an integrated ratings and review system that benefits consumers and multifamily professionals alike.

The new integration helps apartment hunters find reliable reviews and information about communities. At the same time, it helps property managers, owners and leasing staff protect the online reputations of their communities by allowing them to actively monitor and respond to HotPads reviews within the Respage dashboard.

"Nine in 10 people take online reviews into consideration when looking for a new apartment," says Respage CEO Jackie Koehler. "This partnership helps community stakeholders stay on top of those reviews, alerting them of all new posts and giving them the power to respond manually within our system, or allowing a team of our public relations specialists to respond on their behalf."

The HotPads partnership represents yet another popular apartment review source that integrates with the Respage dashboard, which already includes several other Internet Listing Services, as well as more universal review websites like Yelp, Facebook and Google Reviews.

"By compiling all incoming reviews into one centralized location, the Respage dashboard helps multifamily professionals get a comprehensive view of their online reputations," says Koehler. "But perhaps more importantly, the dashboard saves a ton of time. We estimate that our dashboard saves roughly two and a half hours per week in community online reputation tasks. If you have a twenty property portfolio, that's a full time job."
