Check out a sneak peek of the article below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Revolutionized Application Process<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Traditional social housing applicant intake processes rely heavily on in-person interviews. Those interviews run the risk of miscommunications and require a lot of time for your staff and prospective residents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnline, self-service application workflows present each applicant with a consistent experience, conveniently available 24\/7. Applicants can submit their information when it\u2019s most convenient for them from any web browser with digital accuracy. This provides more efficient use of staff\u2019s time when reviewing applications,\u201d said Altobelli.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Manage Waitlists in Real-Time<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Using conventional mail notifications, updating waitlists is a lengthy process. Convenient online user portals connect waitlisted households to leasing office staff in real-time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConnected technology makes it possible for social housing providers to efficiently upload documents, respond to housing offers and notify staff of changes and pending approvals, in real time, and maintain updated waitlist,\u201d explained Altobelli.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yardi.com\/products\/yardi-voyager-social-housing\/\">Innovative technologies<\/a> enable staff to meet the needs of applicants and residents while reducing administrative workloads for staff.
