365 Connect Launches Leasing Center and Resident Portal at Oak Creek Apartments

NEW ORLEANS, LA - 365 Connect, the leading edge, web-based, technology platform provider to the multifamily industry, today announced the launching of its 365 Leasing Center and 365 Resident Services Portal package for Oak Creek Apartments, a 336-unit apartment community in Arlington, Texas. The garden style property is implementing the two services seamlessly by bundling them within the 365 Channel Platform. In doing so, the Oak Creek Apartments management team acquires the ultimate online marketing machine coupled with user-friendly online services for its residents.

The 365 Leasing Center for Oak Creek Apartments creates an interactive Internet expansion of its leasing team that operates 24/7 with minimal effort by management and, it never sleeps. All of the critical information on the Oak Creek Apartments Website necessary to attract new residents can be updated by the managers and uploaded in real time to the site. But it does not stop there. The Oak Creek Apartments data is also posted automatically to the 24/7 Leasing Center at MultifamilyBiz.com. There, the Oak Creek Apartments leasing profile is pushed across the Internet through multiple data feeds generated by the 365 Connect Networks. The Oak Creek Apartments owners and staff can see their community’s leasing information appear in popular, high traffic, apartment listing sites such as Cazoodle.com, RentBits.com, Vast.com, OLX.com, Classifieds.org, Trovit.com, Enormo.com, RentJungle.com RealEstate.Overstock.com and Tenant.com.

In an entirely different dimension, the Oak Creek Apartments 365 Leasing Center brings the world of Internet social networking to its residents. The designers at 365 Connect are fully aware that the renters of today are fully immersed in online social networking as a way of life and have integrated that culture into its services. All of the Oak Creek Apartments information posted to the property Website and uploaded to the 24/7 Leasing Center is automatically relayed to FaceBook and Twitter. The personal feel of Oak Creek Apartments is being felt across the country and around the world.

With the 365 Resident Services Portal, the Oak Creek Apartments staff has given its residents the ability to interact digitally with the management team, find and locate community resources and access community, educational and self-improvement content. These hard working neighbors can now send service requests, reserve property amenities, set up their utilities and perform a host of tasks without a time-consuming trip to the leasing office. The residents now have more leisure time to take advantage of the all of the valuable educational and self-improvement videos available on 365 Connect’s LearnTV, or just be entertained.

Oak Creek Apartments is owned by CrestMarc in Dallas and managed by Greystar out of Charleston, South Carolina. Both firms have deployed the 365 Leasing Center and 365 Resident Services Portal package at a variety of other multifamily properties.
