Introducing the Command Center

Today is a special day here at RentEngine.

We’re excited to announce the new Command Center. It’s the crown jewel of our mission to help property managers lease faster and simplify operations.

Every tool you need for better leasing lives here:

  • Full CRM for lead management ✍️

  • Two-way calling & texting 📞

  • Showing calendar & scheduling 📆

  • Phone app for your on-site team members 📱

The Command Center is available from your computer and phone

No more jumping between tabs just to help a prospect. Now your team will have the best-in-class tools in one convenient place. 

Let’s dig into it!

Leasing CRM

Built right into the Command Center is a full-featured leasing CRM.

Here you can track each lead, see the leasing event history, log internal notes and set reminders.

Leasing Events

RentEngine automatically logs each new online lead and contacts them right away via text and email. For other new leads (like referrals or walk-ins) just use the Add Prospect button.

Most leasing events are automatically logged for you, including Showing Scheduled, Showing Complete and Application Sent to Prospects.

And you can manually add leasing events like Looking too Early, Not Interested and Application Received.

If a prospect is interested in multiple units, switch between them with the dropdown up top

Log manual leasing events and internal notes. RentEngine automatically many events for you

Internal Notes

To keep track of interesting things the prospect says or does, you can add unlimited Internal Notes. These are visible to everyone else on your team so that nothing slips through the cracks.

Set Reminders

Whether you want to manually follow up with a prospect in 1 hour or 1 day, you can set personal reminders. You'll also get a push notification for them if you have the phone app downloaded.

See Scheduled Follow Ups

RentEngine automatically nurtures and follows up with each lead for you. You can see when the next scheduled follow up will get sent.

Unit Info

When you pull up a prospect, the Command Center automatically loads in the Unit Info to help you respond to questions faster and not have to hunt for info in another system

Set personal reminders and see unit info for each prospect in one place

Two-way Calling & Texting

Save yourself from switching between systems to call and text prospects

Calling

In the Command Center, just click "Call". It connect through the computer or phone from your dedicated leasing number. And when prospects call you, they'll come right through.

All calls are automatically logged in the prospect's chat history.

Texting

Send and receive texts on your dedicated leasing number through the Command Center. No opt-in required.

One-click calling, integrated texting and smart snippets to save you time

Snippets

Stop copy/pasting the answers to common questions. Snippets let you quickly reply to 30+ common questions without hunting for the answer. In the text box, just type "/" to choose the right answer.

Showings Calendar & Scheduling

Scheduling and completing showings has never been easier with our integrated showings calendar.

Calendar

At the top of the Command Center you'll see all of today's showings. Each row has the status, prospect's name, address and time.

Clicking on a showing will open up that prospect's profile where you can call, text and log leasing events.

See today's showings and take fast actions

Scheduling

You have the choice between scheduling showings directly or making the prospect do the pre-screening first.

Both are easy, just hit Action and choose the option you prefer. RentEngine will automatically log the leasing events and text the prospect.

Generate Lockbox Codes

Right from the Command Center generate SentriLock and Codebox codes

Logging Accompanied Showings

For accompanied and remote-guided showings, you can directly log the feedback and next steps. Just hit Start Showing and then Showing Complete. The phone app event lets you do this on-site for a smoother prospect experience.

Log feedback and next steps right away for in-person showings

Phone App
