Objective Apartment Reviews Showcased on Internet Listing Service Website

Dallas, TX  September 5, 2013 – Renter’s Voice. the apartment ratings and reviews website designed to provide balanced feedback to prospective renters, announces its partnership with Apartment Finder to provide Renter’s Voice apartment reviews on ApartmentFinder.com apartment listings.

Renter’s Voice provides objective apartment reviews and ratings from a wide range of perspectives on thousands of apartment communities throughout the US. Renter’s Voice utilizes feedback from independent evaluators, resident surveys, and current renters to drive content and engagement on the review site.  All reviews on the site are moderated by a third party to ensure realistic and authentic feedback that helps renters make an informed decision.

As they continue to enhance their apartment reviews website, Renter’s Voice has added a widget that allows customers to showcase their ratings summary and recent reviews on their own websites and blogs. Renter’s Voice and Apartment Finder, in partnership since June 2012 when the reviews site first launched, are helping renters access more balanced information about apartment communities by using the Renter’s Voice Review Widget while on Apartment Finder’s internet apartment listing website.

Says Marcia Bollinger, President of Apartment Finder, We partnered with Renter’s Voice because we do advertising and they do ratings and reviews. We wanted to align ourselves with a company whose core focus is ratings and reviews, so we and our clients can capitalize on their best practices and get the most value.”

On ApartmentFinder.com, the Renter’s Voice apartment reviews widget has been rolled out on the listings of over 100 properties managed by Lincoln Property Company (LPC), the third largest property manager in the US. As part of the program, LPC provides transparent customer feedback data they collect, which in turn gives users a more well-rounded impression of the experience of living at the apartment community. Users have one-click access to Renter’s Voice reviews and ratings while viewing the traditional apartment internet listings they have always been able to browse on Apartment Finder’s site.

Joanna Ellis, CEO of Ellis Partners and Co-founder of Renter s Voice, remarked, “We have always been a customer feedback company, and Apartment Finder is the leading apartment internet listing service. What we’re doing is combining each other’s particular expertise to help magnify the voice of the customer and portray an authentic picture to the prospective renters at these apartment communities.”

As customers progressively rely on the internet to find information that helps them make more informed buying decisions, traditional one-sided ratings and reviews sites do not provide a valuable service.  Renter’s Voice has developed a robust website that delivers current and relevant feedback about each apartment community, continues to ease the user experience, and in partnership with Apartment Finder ties a quality lead generation source to quality apartment ratings and reviews that renters can trust.

Renter’s Voice recently completed a redesign of their website to provide users with an app-like experience on smartphones, tablets and e-readers. The new responsive design and the collaboration between Renter’s Voice and ApartmentFinder.com will put more objective apartment reviews in the hands of prospective renters, giving them an authentic picture of the living experience at the apartment community and aiding them in their decision making process.
