  • ABOVE AVERAGE: 88% TO 94.9%
  • AVERAGE: 78% TO 87.9%
  • BELOW AVERAGE: 77.9% OR BELOW
  • EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
  • Leasing Professional's overall attitude and impression: Qwantina had a low tone yet professional.
  • Leasing Professional's strongest points: Qwantina was familiar with the availability and pricing.
  • Leasing Professional's weakest points: Over of phone, Qwantina stayed focused on giving me what I asked for in availability and she was ready to close the conversation and end the call immediately after telling me what was available. She wasn’t even going to take my contact information. I had to ask for “the next steps” and invite myself in to take a tour. If I had been a real prospect I would have hung up and passed over this community in my search for a new apartment. Qwantina didn’t give me the impression she wanted my business. Onsite, the tour of the model was fairly quick. Qwantina made no attempt to engage me in conversation and ask me anything about my apartment search and my preferences. She did not try to close me at the end of tour. I felt uncomfortable with the way she answered the Fair Housing question when I asked if a lot of Spanish people lived on property. She they did and so did “older people” but “they live in the back end of the community”. I didn’t quite know what she meant but it sounded as if a certain demographic was being steered to a certain section of the community.
  • Overall Comments: Overall, I left the onsite tour with enough information to make an informed decision; However, if I were a real prospect, I probably would have never visited the property based on my phone conversation with Qwantina.

Telephone Greeting Comments (Please provide the Telephone Greeting in the comment box below. Explain all your "No" or "NA" answers.) How many rings before the Leasing Professional picked up?:

Preface: The original shopper (Sophia) called the property and the agent answered but did not state her name. The shopper finally asked the agent's name toward the end of the conversation only to learn that it was not the target agent, Qwantina, so the phone shop had to be completed by another shopper (Tina).

Qwantina answered the phone call on the first attempt. She answered with the name of the community and she introduced herself. I said I was checking on availability of their apartments.

I didn't feel the Qwantina had an inviting tone to her voice since she didn't attempt to invite me in and I had to lead the conversation.

Telephone Qualifying Comments (Please explain all your "No" or "NA" answers/and any additional questions that were asked of you.) :

Qwantina answered the phone call on the first attempt. She answered with the name of the community and she introduced herself. I said I was checking on availability of their apartments. She asked me what size and I told her a one- or two- bedroom based on size and price. She described what she currently had available with two options of a one- and two- bedroom. She gave me the prices and explained there was no patio or balcony. She quoted a third option and highlighted (again) there was no patio or balcony. She did not attempt to ask me for my apartment preferences. She asked if that was all I needed “ma’am” as if she was bringing the conversation to a close never asking for my contact information nor inviting me for a tour. There was a long pause as I waited for her to take the lead in conversation. I finally had to ask her what the next step would be. She said I could apply online or come in and do a paper application. She went on to tell me about the application fee and holding fee. She told me if I get denied I could get my $100 back but If I am approved, I would need to provide my first month’s rent. I had to ask if there was anything I could see like a model. She said she did have a two- bedroom model I could tour. Again, there was a long pause as I waited for her to invite me in for tour. I finally had to ask how I would set that tour up. She asked for my first and last name, phone number, email address. She asked me how I heard about the property, and if I was bringing any pets. She explained the pet policy. She asked if I had any children under the age of 18. She asked me what day would be good. We set an appointment for the following day. She confirmed her name and the call ended.

Comments (Please explain in detail your experience.):

I entered the leasing office. I was greeted by a person sitting at her desk. She did not stand to greet me but only looked up with a smile. I spoke first and said I had an appointment with Qwantina. She asked me if the appointment was for today and I confirmed it was. She didn’t introduce herself but she was friendly. She told me they were celebrating Spirit Week and it was Throwback Thursday today.

Qwantina approached me and asked if I was Sophia. I confirmed. She asked for my phone number and attempted to look me up in the computer but it didn’t seem like she had any information from our phone call. She asked If I wanted a two-bedroom and what my move-in date would be (November 1st). She described two options and explained the difference in each floor plan.

We were both wearing our masks so need to offer me any PPE.

Comments on the Demonstration (Please describe your experience while virtually touring with community with the Leasing Professional.):

Qwantina announced that we were going to the model. I got up and followed her. She led me into the model and told me what the differences would be versus what I would have. She told me what was included in the rent and what I would be responsible for paying.

I asked if there were a lot of break-ins in the parking lot and she said, “no” with no further explanation. I asked if there were a lot of Spanish people in the community. Qwantina shared there were Spanish people as well a lot of “older people” in the community. She said mainly most of them are “in the back”. I wasn’t sure what she meant by that.

I asked if washer and dryers were in every unit and she said they were. She didn’t confirm if I had any pets but she told me about the pet policy and the pet fee. She did not attempt to ask me about my preferences.

We entered back into the leasing office and Qwantina gave me a brochure and showed me what was in it such as the paper application. She did not ask if I would be applying.
She gave me back my license and gave me a friendly farewell. She told me to call back if I had any more questions. She didn’t offer to follow back up with me; Hence, I did not receive a follow-up. The tour ended.

Overall, Qwantina did not ask me any open-ended questions about my apartment search. She focused on showing me the model and telling me what my expense responsibilities were such as water and utilities. She didn't learn anything about what was prompting me to move or what I desired in my new apartment home. The tour lacked engagement.

Closing Comments (Please explain all the details of how the Leasing Professional attempted to close you at the end of the onsite visit. Also, explain your reason for not leasing that same day.):

Qwantina seemed new at her job since she seemed to be going through the motions of what she had to do and she didn't engage in conversation with me about my apartment search. I don't think they had any specials since nothing was discussed. She pointed out the paper application in the folder but never asked me if I was interested in applying.

I didn't pose any objections since I she did not ask me to apply. There was no attempt to close me. Qwantina did not attempt to schedule a follow up phone call. She told me to call them if I had any more questions.
