Rently, a creator of self-touring and smart home technology solutions, announced a secure, multifunctional property technology platform for student housing that it said fulfills resident expectations of comfort and convenience, streamlines unit turnovers and ensures maximum security of residences and common areas.
“Rently is excited to apply its years of expertise in the multifamily housing industry to student housing,” said Merrick Lackner, Rently CEO. “We are excited to show student housing operators how easy it is to manage a smart home property. With one login for one platform, operators can remotely control all property access points and oversee every aspect of property management.”
Smart home tech is quickly becoming a standard amenity in student housing nationwide. Smart locks reduce security threats by 60%, smart thermostats lower annual utility bills by up to 30% and smart water leak sensors reduce damage expenses by thousands of dollars per instance. For student housing, smart locks eliminate the hassle and cost of rekeying at every turn, and mobile app-based software can activate/revoke building and unit access with the click of a button. From Rently’s Smart Home dashboard, operators can customize property access schedules, control access permissions, monitor access logs and create durational entry codes for deliveries and maintenance visits.
Rently’s student housing solution integrates smoothly with leading property management softwares, such as Yardi, RealPage, and Entrata. In addition, student housing operators can accelerate deployment of Rently’s solution using automated set-up tools, network of technicians and customer support.
