MAA Software Applications

Over the next few days you will have an opportunity to view and begin to learn what each tool looks like and how it is used. Listed below are brief descriptions of our leasing technology tools:

Funnel

This product is our property management system where you will conduct all lead management and customer communication.

Yardi Voyager

This property management system is where we conduct all resident activities such as the leasing workflow, transfers, renewals, etc.

Resident Portal – Yardi Rent Café

Our residents are able to view this product. Residents can directly enter maintenance requests on-line, initiate renewing their lease, view their account balances, and make payments. This technology also displays community news and neighborhood information online. Prospects are also able to apply for apartments online via our website using Rent Café.

Homefinder

This internal product allows us to search for available apartments in a specific community, market, or region. Apartment “brochures” can also be printed from Homefinder.

Activity! - Now, take some time to “play” in Homefinder.
