Hi there! Yes, unit 4521B is still available and October 1st move-in works perfectly. It's 2BR/2BA, 950 sq ft, rent is $1,850/month. Want me to send over the application link?

So my situation is a little complicated. I'm self-employed (freelance graphic design, about 2 years in), my credit score dipped to 640 last year after a medical bill went to collections that I've since paid off, and I'll have a cosigner but they live in another state. Would I even qualify for this unit?

01

The quiet ones got worked

Every new prospect hears from Leslie right away. Anyone who goes quiet gets four texts over about three days. Nobody schedules it.

02

The not-right-now is on the calendar

Silence never closes a lead. Leslie asks up to three times first, and a prospect who isn't ready gets a check-in in 30 days.

03

Today's rent, every time

Leslie answers from live Fortress data. Change the rent this afternoon and the next answer uses the new number.

04

Leslie AI never guesses

A question outside live Fortress data gets flagged for your team. The prospect hears someone is on it.

Handled by Leslie, trusted by Operators

Forty live prospects is a normal Tuesday. Leslie works the whole list, top to bottom, the same way every day.

Won't decide who qualifies

Leslie flags qualifying questions. Your leasing team makes the call.

Is unit 4521B still available for October 1st?
Leslie AIYes, 4521B is still available and October 1st works. It's 2BR/2BA, 950 sq ft, and rent is $1,850 a month.
One more thing before I apply. I'm self-employed, my credit dipped to 640 last year after a medical bill I've since paid off, and my cosigner lives out of state. Would I qualify?
Leslie AIGood question. I'm looking into it and someone from the leasing team will get back to you shortly.

Hi, this is Kelsey at Maple Grove. Happy to go through it with you. Our team reviews every application against the community's qualification criteria, and I can tell you exactly what we'll need from you.
That's a relief, thank you. Please send the link.
Leslie AIHere's the application link. Once the application and any required fees are in, the unit is reserved. Let me know if you hit a snag and I'll help.

Leasing mechanics

Leslie sends the application link and nudges it until it's complete.

Most leasing AI is just a chatbot. Not Leslie.

Built by affordable housing people, Leslie handles real leasing and follow-up, not bot scripts.

Hold on, am I texting a real person?
Leslie AII'm Leslie, the AI leasing assistant for Maple Grove. Someone from the leasing team is always available too, just say the word.
Fine by me. Do you have anything ADA accessible in a one bedroom?
Leslie AIYes. 218C is a 1BR/1BA marked ADA accessible, listed with Mobility and Hearing features. It's $1,420 a month and opens November 1st.
Any chance you could take something off the rent, or hold it for me for a week?
Leslie AII can't negotiate rent or hold a unit. I can share any specials that are running, and a unit is reserved once the application and any required fees are in.
Fair enough. Honestly we're not moving until the spring anyway.
Leslie AINo problem at all. Should I keep helping you look at Maple Grove, or close this out for now?
Close it out. I'll come back when we're closer.
Leslie AISounds good. I'll check back in 30 days so you have current pricing when you're ready.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got reservations? Fair. Here's what other operators asked first.

Book a Free Demo

Does Leslie make up answers?

No. If the answer isn't in Fortress data, Leslie tells the prospect someone is looking into it and flags that message for your team. No guessing. And the thread does not go quiet while it waits.

What if a prospect is vague?

Leslie asks. Is it rent, what's open, or how to apply? What size, and when do you want to move? If an answer is unclear, Leslie asks again rather than assuming.

Where do the answers come from?

Live Fortress data: rent, openings, floor plans, fees, specials, and amenities. There's no script for anyone to keep updated. If something changes this afternoon, the answer changes with it.

Does Leslie decide who qualifies?

No. The leasing team reviews each application against the community's rules. No legal advice. No Fair Housing readings. No credit or affordability advice. Leslie never approves, denies, or reads an accommodation request.

Can we turn Leslie off for a whole community?

Yes, but not from a screen. That one is a setup change and goes through support, so start with your property manager. The property page shows whether Leslie is on or off for the community. It's a status screen, not a switch.

How fast does Leslie reply?

Right away, usually in the same minute. Leslie answers after hours, and just never sends the first text then.

Can we turn Leslie off for one person?

Yes. Open that prospect's Texting tab and hit the Leslie AI Assistant button. It only affects that one chat and anyone on site can do it. One thing to know: anything Leslie had scheduled is canceled, not paused. Switching Leslie back on does not bring it back.

Does Leslie text residents?

No. Prospects and applicants only.

Bring the question you thinkLeslie would get wrong.
