Boston, MA (January 23, 2007)
A Boston based "Pubnet" (Apartment Community Rental Guide that is published and posted on the Internet) has decided to tackle one of today's most perplexing issues: finding a cost effective way to match those looking for an affordable place to live with apartment communities that offer such housing.
Affordable apartment listings have historically been spread out and lost amid thousands of newspapers, government publications, yellow pages and individual company brochures and web sites. Many government and social service organizations have been attempting to solve this dilemma by maintaining lists of apartment communities with affordable units. This time-consuming approach to finding housing often leads to many wasted phone calls and leaves both property managers and apartment seekers worn-out.
AffordableSearch.com has compiled over 14,000 affordable apartment communities nationwide in an easy-to-search format. The apartment seeker can view community information, photos, floorplans, qualifying guidelines, maps, and contact the property directly either by phone or email. A quick search allows potential tenants to overcome geographic limitations and brings up only those apartments with the features and amenities they consider most important, saving both time and frustration.
"Communities with very limited marketing budgets have only been able to place an occasional ad in the local newspaper." "We decided to change that," states Matt Dubuque, President and Founder of AffordableSearch.com and AffordableSearch Magazine. Dubuque has worked in the property management and advertising fields for nearly twenty years and knows what methods both market rate and affordable communities use to attract tenants. "Why not have a focused, year-round marketing presence with printable brochures for the cost of advertising in the newspaper for a weekend?"
Dubuque and former Corcoran Jennison Director of Marketing Operations Ryan Bettez, brought together a talented team of multi-family marketing professionals, web designers and graphic artists to develop a website and magazine targeted to the affordable market. "Time and again, our clients told us that their affordable units required a thoughtful, cost-effective marketing strategy," says Bettez. We believe AffordableSearch Magazine and AffordableSearch.com responds directly to that need.
"These days web sites have to grow and change to remain relevant," says Vlad Stefanovic, VP of Sales and Marketing for AffordableSearch.com. "We now have more advanced mapping and a highly refined search engine, which allows our users to compare and contrast apartments they might be interested in. We want our users to easily find the exact apartment they want, and we want them to know what it\'s like to live there. A simple list of apartments in a given area just isn\'t cutting it anymore."
AffordableSearch.com and AffordableSearch Magazine are attractive to budget-conscious apartment seekers because they will find properties in their price range. Property management companies like AffordableSearch.com and AffordableSearch Magazine's cost-effective approach to producing qualified leads.
Bettez puts it this way, "Does AffordableSearch.com solve the country's affordable housing dilemma? Unfortunately no. It does however, give renters a comprehensive, searchable listing of great housing opportunities at affordable rates. Knowledge is power. We simply want to empower potential residents with the knowledge of availability."
