Raintree Partners Philosophy
Raintree Partners believes in creating more than just apartments - they create communities where people feel at home. They're committed to long-term investments in both their properties and the people who live there. Raintree takes the time to understand the unique needs of each neighborhood, working closely with their 3rd party management company partners to craft living spaces that go beyond expectations.
Their Core Beliefs:
- Long-Term Vision: Raintree is committed to building lasting value in the communities they serve, investing in both properties and people for the long haul.
- Resident-Centric Approach: They put their residents first, prioritizing their needs and preferences to create exceptional living experiences.
- Collaboration & Teamwork: Raintree fosters a culture of collaboration and open communication, working together to achieve shared goals.
- Passion & Dedication: Their team is passionate about creating homes and nurturing a sense of community, and they bring that enthusiasm to everything they do.
🤯 The Challenge: Too Many Leads to Handle
Leads were pouring in, and their small onsite teams were challenged by the velocity while balancing daily property operations. They tried other AI leasing assistants but data wasn't syncing properly and conversations would often get stuck.
The result? Missed opportunities, frustrated leasing agents, and a sluggish lead-to-visit conversion rate. Raintree knew there was plenty of room for improvement.
🤩 Solution: Zuma Swoops In
Enter Zuma, the AI-powered leasing platform that promised seamless integration, engaging conversations, and a team of human experts ready to step in when needed.
Raintree implemented Zuma on a select group of assets, and it made a noticeable difference. Zuma's AI, Kelsey, worked seamlessly with their existing tools, like Knock CRM, solving their data and communication problems. Conversation transcripts were easy to find. The data made sense.
Kelsey's conversations felt natural and personalized, sparking genuine connections with prospects and guiding them through the leasing journey.
But Zuma offered more than just AI wizardry. Their human team was always on standby, ready to jump in and answer difficult questions if needed.
This hybrid approach provided Raintree with the best of both worlds: the efficiency of AI and the warmth of human interaction.
😇 The Impact: Leasing Nirvana
The numbers tell a compelling story:
- 2.4x higher lead-to-visit conversion rate compared to other AI solutions.
- 30% higher lead-to-visit conversion rate compared to properties without a lead nurture tool.
- 44.8% higher overall conversion rate compared to properties not using Zuma.
- 53% improvement in responsiveness compared to properties without a lead nurture tool.
- Happier Teams, Happier Residents: With Zuma handling lead qualification and bookings, Raintree's leasing agents were now free to do what they do best.
Hannah Bailey
(Senior Marketing Manager at Raintree Partners)
" Exploring the potential benefits of Zuma was absolutely worth it. We felt we were losing traffic to competitors due to delayed response times and slow conversation momentum.
While rolling out a new product comes with navigating building team buy-in, setting up integrations, and training all while learning the product yourself, not only was Zuma’s support and implementation team engaged, the product itself completely changed our data.
Engagement rates and our lead-to-tour ratio skyrocketed - getting more customers in the door for our fantastic sales team members to close. This was the whole goal - provide a tool that automates the initial qualifying of the prospect.
With Zuma, we are able to let Kelsey do that work and allow our sales team to close the deal with the customer and enjoy the fun of leasing."
💰 The Bottom Line: A Leasing Transformation
