Mystery Shops

What’s working on the prospect experience and what could be better.

How are your onsite leasing teams performing?

Through our strategic partner, Ellis Partners in Management Solutions , you are provided the information you need to monitor your leasing performance and measure it against your company benchmarks and the performance of other properties and companies in other markets. Ellis’ apartment mystery shops are not used to uncover what’s wrong, but rather the what your onsite team is doing well, what they could be doing even better, and what they need to learn.

How can you get the best results for your properties?

At Ellis, apartment mystery shops provide the opportunity to help each team member reach their full potential, and in turn give your communities a better chance at full occupancy. Once you have objective feedback on leasing performance, you can assess performance and take action for improvement. Paired with Edge2Learn’s suite of training options, you’ll have tools and resources to help you quickly reinforce strengths and address opportunities for improvement.
