Traditional Thinking - Reviews
Reviews and feedback are the same thing.
Our strategy is built on reviews alone, and
rely on them to know if we're doing a good
job.
REACTIVE APPROACH
Lacks awareness of resident experience
Content with online ratings
Occasionally checking online reviews
Responding to reviews only after they go public
Thinks 2-3 familiar residents represent the
sentiment of the entire community
Reactive companies focus on damage control and solving problems that begin surfacing to the public.

25 2023 © AppFolio, Inc. Confidential
Modern Thinking - Feedback
Resident feedback must be a
multi-channel, multi-touch proactive
approach that makes it easy for your
residents to engage in a dialogue.
PROACTIVE APPROACH
Actively asking residents for feedback
Frequent automated resident surveys
Responding to ALL resident input
Turns negative feedback into action items
Goes the extra mile to ensure resident
satisfaction
Addressing underlying negative issues before
they appear publicly
Proactive companies resolve problems long before they surface publicly.
They ensure that reviews stays positive and stay on top of incoming feedback.
