BOSTON, MA - Windsor Communities unveiled its new apartment home finding website today. Windsor solicited the feedback of hundreds of renters and residents, who shared their thought processes about finding a future home. This customer-centric view is at the heart of the new WindsorCommunities.com, which lets renters find apartments through an immersive, online experience that is almost like living at an apartment community.
WindsorCommunities.com delivers the following features apartment renters requested: Large, richly detailed photographs of each community, captured by award-winning photographer Andy Heatwole. Detailed site plans and floorplans of each apartment type. 360 degree tours of clubhouses, fitness centers, and model apartments. Online apartment availability, with flexible lease terms from 2 to 14 months. Printable brochures for future residents based on the desired. Customized Google Maps to pinpoint items of personal and community interest, and supply driving directions. The ability to reserve the apartment they want online, from anywhere.
"The goal of our web site is to make you feel at home, well before you decide to visit or live in one of our communities," says Christi Samuelian, one of the project managers. The feedback to date has been enthusiastic. "Users like the ability to start the search process online, then go to the community if they want to learn more or take an in person tour, or simply check to see if the apartment they like is available directly from the web and reserve it then."
Among the most popular future resident features are the Walkscore(TM) ratings, and the ability to email a friend or roommate about the special offers, and easy to understand pet polices. "WindsorCommunities.com will increasingly serve as the cornerstone of our marketing efforts as more and more prospects look first to the web to find their apartment home," stated Jeff Harris, President of Windsor Communities.
Windsor collaborated with Medium Bold, a Boston Web firm, on the visual design for the site.
Windsor Communities owns and manages over 12,000 apartment homes across the US. Windsor Communities is an affiliate of The General Investment & Development Companies (GID), founded in 1960 and based in Boston, Massachusetts.
