If you’re a property manager using AppFolio, you already know how powerful it is for listing management, tenant communication, and online leasing. But if you’re not yet integrating 360° virtual tours into your listings… you’re leaving money—and qualified leads—on the table. 💸👀
In this guide, we’ll show you just how easy it is to connect your virtual tours with AppFolio listings, helping you:
✅ Lease faster
✅ Reduce in-person showings
✅ Attract remote renters
✅ Boost your listings across syndicated platforms
Let’s make your leasing process smarter, smoother, and more scalable. 💡
When a renter is browsing units online, they want instant access to the full experience. Virtual tours give them that. By embedding your 360° walkthrough directly into your AppFolio listing, you’re giving renters the ability to:
📲 Tour anytime, from anywhere
🎯 Pre-screen units before applying
📅 Book only when they’re serious
The result? Fewer wasted showings, faster application cycles, and happier renters who feel empowered.
