Frontdesk runs personalized post-tour nurture sequences across voice, SMS, and email to convert toured prospects into completed applications. Concession reminders, application-link delivery, document-collection nudges, and incomplete-application rescue all run automatically — and update your PMS guest card in real time.
Built for multifamily leasing teams losing applications to post-tour silence. Bidirectional sync with Yardi RentCafe, RealPage OneSite, Entrata Core, AppFolio Realm-X, Buildium, and ResMan. Nurtures toured prospects originally sourced from Apartments.com, Zillow Rentals, Zumper, Rent.com, ApartmentList, HotPads, and Realtor.com Rentals across conventional, lease-up, build-to-rent, student housing, senior living, and affordable / LIHTC portfolios. Goes beyond EliseAI, Funnel, Zuma, Respage, Yardi Chat IQ, and Entrata ELI+ by orchestrating outbound voice in addition to SMS and email.

The Problem
Most communities tour a prospect once and never close the loop. The renter walks away with three other properties to consider, no application link in their inbox, and no concession reminder to nudge them forward.
A leasing consultant fresh off three tours doesn’t have time to manually craft a personalized follow-up with the right floor plan, the right concession, and the right application link. Generic "thanks for touring" emails get ignored.
Prospects start the Yardi RentCafe, RealPage OneSite, Entrata, or AppFolio application, hit a friction point on income documentation or guarantor info, and never come back. Nobody at the leasing office knows the application stalled.
A blanket "ask about our specials" SMS doesn’t move the needle. Prospects need to hear about the right concession for their floor plan, move-in date, and unit type — at the right moment in the decision window.
How Frontdesk Works
Built for multifamily operators on Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, AppFolio, Buildium, ResMan — and every other major PMS.

AI Transcript
“Hi! I’d love to tour the 2-bedroom at Maple Heights. Any availability this Saturday?”
Frontdesk AI
“Yes! The 2BR at Maple Heights is $2,450/mo with a Feb 1 move-in. Saturday 11am or 2pm works for tours. Shall I book one?”
Frontdesk fires a multi-touch sequence at 1 hour, 24 hours, 72 hours, and 7 days post-tour. Every touch references the specific floor plan, concession, move-in date, and pets/parking discussed during the tour. The right channel for the right persona.
Looking for a 2BR around $2,400, move-in mid-February. Do you allow pets?
We have a 2BR at $2,450/mo available Feb 15. Cats and dogs under 50 lbs welcome. What’s your move-in date?
Captured
Frontdesk monitors Yardi RentCafe, RealPage OneSite, Entrata, AppFolio Realm-X, Buildium, and ResMan for stalled applications and reaches out with a personalized nudge — guarantor help, document upload reminder, income-verification options.
More capabilities
The AI knows which concessions apply to which floor plans, which move-in dates, and which renter personas — and surfaces the right offer at the right moment. Concession spend is targeted, not blanket.
For affordable / LIHTC and Section 8 / housing-voucher prospects, Frontdesk handles the additional documentation, RFTA / housing-authority coordination, and timing reminders — without burning a leasing-agent hour per applicant.
Track tour-to-application, application-start-to-finish, and tour-to-lease conversion across communities, ILS sources, floor plans, and renter personas. Identify which nurture cadences move the needle.
