Traditionally, real estate has been focused on ‘closing the deal’ where consumer interaction ends at the final signing of the property contract. However, this is a short-sighted approach that ignores the vital value of leveraging existing customers through consistent and thoughtful resident engagement. 

A connected, well-informed, and satisfied resident is more likely to participate in the community, and contribute to a positive living environment. That’s where ANACITY’s community management tools come into play, transforming traditional residential management into an interactive, tech-enabled experience.

Why does resident engagement matter?

Resident engagement refers to the interactions between residents and their community, its facilities, management, and neighbours. 

• Engaged residents result in stronger community ties which leads to a sense of belonging. 
• Communities that prioritise resident engagement stress on communication and cooperation. 
• The stress on collaboration leads to fewer disputes.
• Resident engagement leads to overall improved satisfaction and a 
• Healthier living environment.
