21 Zillow Testimonials

“I let everybody know, especially when they move in, that my office is the place for business. If you haven’t paid your rent, that doesn’t stop your apartment from being your home. I’m not going to disrespect you in your home. You don’t need to sneak around. I’m not going to say anything to you in the hallway. That’s private business. When we’re on the street, I’ll wave and say hello and ask how you’re doing. We’ll work out something that makes everyone succeed. We’re a community.”

“When Bell is hired to manage a stabilized property, my role is to help get the property running to Bell’s standards with no disruption of service. If we are working on a property that won’t open for a year, you’re not going to hire a community manager yet. I fulfill any role and responsibility between those of the on-site team and regional manager.”

"From early on, we saw Zillow leads converting to leases at about the same rate as other established ILSs, at a no-nonsense cost per lease."

"The results of our partnership are extraordinary. We are receiving better-qualified leads that convert to a lease at a much higher percentage compared to many of our other advertising partners. We chose to add Zillow because it’s where consumers go to look for housing. Many people are still deciding between renting and buying, and Zillow is the one-stop shop for their home search."

"The volume and quality of leads we’re getting with Zillow is very strong, and the cost per lead and cost per lease is very competitive and performing well against competitors. The team is so great to work with – it’s truly a partnership."

“We give them information about Uber and Lyft, in case they haven’t used it before, and a $20 credit if they use our code. We let them know where to get groceries, a bus pass, where to grab a quick bite to eat and a beer. We value their time and are focused on fully orientating them to the community.”

“We have a really solid product and provide distinctive single story apartment homes for our residents. Our apartment homes are two-bed, two-bath, with a den and a two-car garage. When you live at a Redwood Community you don’t have neighbors above or below you for optimal peace and quiet. But, you have a neighborhood. There are sidewalks. You see and know your neighbors.”

"We took a chance on Zillow for a few of our affordable housing properties. A short time later, we rolled it out to nearly our entire portfolio. Occupancies have jumped, showing improvements at some properties that I’ve never seen!"

“That’s part of what makes us special. We have staff with a long tenure, who were born and raised in the area. Our story is we believe that we are the best-suited to help [residents] choose [their] ideal housing. We know what’s good in town, where to go for dining, entertainment, schools — and we help people find the right home and neighborhood. We’re selling shelter — that’s a basic necessity — but where you are your truest self, in the privacy of your home, is important. It isn’t just four walls and a roof, it’s your life.”

"There’s a big difference between activity and accomplishment. Zillow’s pay-for-performance model cuts out a lot of noise and delivers qualified contacts."

“We emphasize wellness across our entire portfolio. As we continue to grow, GCI always keeps the well-being and enjoyment of our residents at the forefront of our vision, and this translates into everything, including our fitness studio designs.”

"We’ve gone 100 percent online and Zillow is a major part of that. Our occupancy is continuing to climb and our revenue is growing. At the end of the day, what matters is that leads are translating to leases."

“There are a lot of great buildings, bars and restaurants that have moved into the area. And, the population boom has been incredible. The [Brunsfield] building has received a lot of press. People gravitate toward our community.”

“Now there is an expectation that you can reach any target audience whenever they are having one of those micro moments — when they want to know how to do something, go somewhere or buy something. We try to put ourselves into view whenever renters are having any of those moments. That’s the goal.”

"Zillow Group has done a phenomenal job of building consumer trust and confidence. Whether they’re looking to buy or rent, consumers think, “I can find a home here.” I like working with a company that’s committed to the best interests of renters."
