NterNow, Atlanta, a patented on-demand access service for locked vacant properties, has unveiled a new dashboard and apps for its home builder clients that adds functionality that allows on-site salespeople to have more control over the dashboard.
For instance, builders can now add multiple employees and control who is working to manage leads during the COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis. Leads can be forwarded easily to someone else if a team member has a day off.
“We rushed this update in response to the coronavirus crisis to give our clients more versatility with responses to consumers,” NterNow President and Founder Lynne Davis said. “The new dashboard provides home builders with much needed flexibility in assigning people to their various properties. Additionally, the updated dashboard allows us to add other services quickly. Look for several new products to roll out within the next month or two.”
NterNow is an on-demand access service that allows homes to remain locked, while providing home shoppers with a unique or one-time entry code to tour homes upon verifying their identity.
Sublime Homes in St. John, Indiana doesn’t typically have many inventory homes; however, it currently has an NterNow lock on one home. “It’s great to be able to offer the lock to our prospects to use to view our home,” said Sublime Homes Sales and Marketing Director Amy Alexander. “As a custom home builder, our walk-in traffic is not substantial, but we have had a few prospects view the home and they loved that they were able to view it unassisted without anyone else in the home. They have come back to visit a couple of times now and we hope to take a contract on this home soon.”
GreenTech Builders of Chattanooga, Tennessee uses NterNow to maintain leads and provide shoppers with home tours during this time of social distancing. According to the builder’s Director of Marketing Shawn Summey, “We averaged 14.5 unique leads the last four weeks using NterNow compared to 8 to 10 leads per week across all our communities for onsite agents before putting in NterNow. So, it has actually increased our lead capture.”
During this same time period, GreenTech had 126 homes toured, wrote three contracts and had five potential buyers come back for second visits.
