Abstract:

Systems, methods and software for scheduling and performing self-guided tours (SGTs) of multi-unit residential facilities (MURFs) are provided. For scheduling SGTs, the method includes receiving guest information, payment information, and identification (ID) information from a client device, determining validity of the payment and ID information, and receiving and confirming an SGT tour time. For performing SGTs, the method includes sending property access information to a client device, receiving a trigger from a property access control system indicating that a user of the client device has entered the MURF, providing MURF tour directions to the client device, and receiving tour data for the SGT. The disclosed systems, methods, and software provide prospective tenant users and owners and/or management of MURFs efficient and user-friendly interaction to accomplish and enhance their tour operation experiences.
