NEW ORLEANS, LA (PRBuzz) Aug 30, 2010 -- 365 Connect today announced the launching of its 365 Channel Platform bundled array of services for Shadowbrooke Apartments, a 240-unit garden apartment community in Stafford, Texas. The package includes 365 Online Leasing Center, 365 Mobile Leasing Center and 365 Resident Services Portal, all of which are implemented seamlessly, thereby giving the Shadowbrooke management team the ultimate online marketing machine coupled with user-friendly, online resident services. The powerful 365 Channel Platform further cements 365 Connect's role as the leader in leading edge, creative, Web-based technology solutions for the multifamily industry.

The 365 Online Leasing Center for Shadowbrooke Apartments creates an interactive Internet expansion of its leasing team that operates 24-7 with minimal effort by management and ... it never sleeps. All of the critical information for Shadowbrooke necessary to attract new residents can be updated by the managers and uploaded in real time to the site. But it does not stop there. The Shadowbrooke data is also posted automatically to the 24-7 Leasing Center at MultifamilyBiz.com. There, the community's leasing profile is pushed across the Internet through multiple data feeds generated by the 365 Connect Networks. The Shadowbrooke Apartments owners and staff can see their community's leasing information appear in popular, high traffic, apartment listing sites such as Cazoodle.com, RentBits.com, Vast.com, OLX.com, Classifieds.org, Trovit.com, Enormo.com, RentJungle.com, RealEstate.Overstock.com and Tenant.com.

To meet the demands of a highly mobile society, the Online Leasing Center fully integrates with the 365 Mobile Leasing Center, delivering a mobile version of the Shadowbrooke Apartments Website that works across SmartPhone Platforms. The Mobile Leasing Center works on the Apple iPhone, BlackBerry SmartPhones, Android, Palm Pre and Windows Mobile.

In an entirely different dimension, the Shadowbrooke Apartments 365 Leasing Center brings the world of Internet social networking to its residents. The designers at 365 Connect are fully aware that the renters of today are fully immersed in online social networking as a way of life and have integrated that culture into its services. All of the Shadowbrooke information posted to the property Website and uploaded to the 24-7 Leasing Center is automatically relayed to FaceBook and Twitter. The personal feel of the Shadowbrooke Apartments community is being felt across the country and around the world.

With the 365 Resident Services Portal, the staff at Shadowbrooke Apartments has given its residents the ability to interact digitally with the management team, find and locate community resources and access community, educational and self-improvement content. These hard working neighbors can now send service requests, reserve property amenities, set up their utilities and perform a host of tasks without a time-consuming trip to the leasing office. The residents now have more leisure time to take advantage of all of the valuable educational and self-improvement videos available on 365 Connect's LearnTV, or just be entertained.

Shadowbrooke Apartments is managed by Orion Real Estate Services, which is headquartered in Houston, Texas. Orion Real Estate Services has deployed the 365 Online Leasing Center, 365 Mobile Leasing Center and 365 Resident Services Portal package at a variety of other multifamily properties.
