Integration allows Yardi clients to improve the rental search experience
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Oct. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Yardi®, a leading provider of real estate software solutions, is excited to announce a new integration with Engrain, a pioneer in apartment mapping technology. This collaboration enhances Engrain's SightMap® technology on Yardi's RentCafe® websites, enabling multifamily clients to easily add interactive property maps that improve the rental search experience.
Prior to this collaboration, Yardi would embed Engrain maps in RentCafe websites, requiring interactions with multiple teams. Now, as an Engrain reseller partner, Yardi simplifies the process for its multifamily clients by managing the SightMap ordering, license management, support and native API integration. This also creates a better user experience and provides more detailed insight into user engagement.
The integration of Engrain's SightMap makes it easier for renters to view and assess available units. Website visitors can explore the property and find the apartment that's right for them. This personalized approach ensures more qualified applications, creating a faster, more satisfying leasing process for renters and property staff.
"Renters want to learn as much as they can about the actual units available to rent. This integration helps property managers provide that level of information, creating a rental search experience that aligns with renter expectations," said Esther Bonardi, vice president of marketing at Yardi.
Engrain interactive maps include:
- Advanced filtering: Help renters find their ideal apartment quickly by filtering by floor plan, move-in date and more.
- Enhanced visualization: Provide a comprehensive understanding of the property by combining street and satellite views with unit-specific content.
- Engaging CTAs: Drive user engagement and increase conversion rates with customizable calls to action.
"Partnering with Yardi allows RentCafe clients to seamlessly order and integrate SightMap into their property websites. As renters increasingly use digital platforms to search for available apartments, the integration of pricing and availability data with our interactive mapping technology creates a more efficient leasing experience," said Brent Steiner, founder and CEO of Engrain.
