Parking for Apartment Complexes through Digital Parking
One of the top points that potential residents or current residents look for in a place to live is parking and its availability. Is the apartment in a good location? Is there good parking? Is it easy to find parking? These questions come to mind when selecting a place to live among other ones that are more specific to the person’s needs. These can range from decor, flow, and apartment size. However, amenities for apartment complexes are what can really set one complex apart from another. Parking is one such amenity that can really set the tone and make or break a decision to live in a complex over another.
Smart Parking
Smart parking offers an upgraded parking experience that allows for control and flexibility for all involved. For residents, this can include permitted parking, guaranteed parking for their vehicles, guest parking, and an increased sense of security. For operators or complex managers, this can include surveying use, registering vehicles to the apartment, allowing for guest parking, setting aside specific parking areas for certain needs, and also enforcing parking rules and procedures.
Smart parking offers the ability to serve everyone’s needs and have a positive impact on opinions of a complex, as well as reduce overall anxiety or stress over parking- especially in areas where parking is a struggle to find. Smart parking integrates tools and equipment that can sync to a mobile device or cloud-based system to control the parking experience. In complex or apartment parking areas this may not include the need for payment as it may be included in the rent of the apartment. However, it can integrate things like guest registration for the parking area, and reserved parking for each apartment. This can be done 24/7 no matter when the office hours are at the complex.
The system is able to openly communicate with residents and staff about parking and updates to the parking area such as the need to move a car for maintenance or emergencies. For cars that are not registered or allowed in the parking area, they can be towed or ticketed, as well as blocked from the property if needed through the application. Residents can pull up their information and see data that is generated specific to their parking and usage. The complex office is also able to pull up specific parking data for residents that can help with decision making and future plans.
By offering smart parking solutions for residents, a complex can boast about available parking either at an included rate for rent or for a small monthly fee, and can also help ensure safety and security of the facility. This is important because residents care about their vehicles and property. In higher population areas, parking is an important amenity that can really drive a person to rent a property or not- all based on how the parking situation is at one property versus the other.
