New bundle simplifies move-ins by enabling residents to sign
up for essential services directly from the RentCafe resident
portal
SANTA
BARBARA, Calif., June 18,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Yardi®, a leading provider in
AI-powered real estate software, today announced a new resident
services bundle to help property managers enhance the resident
experience. The bundle, named Resident Services by ResidentShield®,
enables residents to sign up for essential services directly
through their RentCafe® resident portal using a built-in checklist
that guides renters through the move-in process. Through this
initiative, residents will only have to use one app to activate
essential services after moving in.
"Our mission has always been to help our clients provide
exceptional resident experiences and the move-in process plays an
important role in delivering that experience," said Akshai Rao, president of residential at Yardi.
"Resident Services by ResidentShield will streamline one of the key
touchpoints in the resident journey, making the move-in process
effortless for leasing agents and residents."
Yardi has also announced plans to launch a resident rewards
program that includes free rent reporting from a partnership with
IDIQ. This initiative will help residents build credit from on-time
payments and is at no additional cost to property managers and
operators. The program is set to begin in the fourth quarter of
this year.
"We are excited to bring real-time rent payment reporting to
millions of renters with a partner like Yardi. This is a benefit
that can have a meaningful impact on a resident's financial life,"
said Scott Hermann, IDIQ CEO.
Nikki Boehle, SVP of the multifamily
channel, emphasized the increasing desire to build credit
responsibly and improve credit scores. "This partnership
facilitates residents achieving that goal by simply paying rent
each month."
Through the resident services bundle, Yardi clients can enable
the following in the RentCafe resident portal:
- Simple security deposit alternative
- Comprehensive renters insurance
- Flexible rent payments
- High-speed Wi-Fi connection
