Ellis Announces Winners of 2018 Ellis Customer Experience Best in Class Award for Resident Surveys — Ellis Partners in Management Solutions

2018 Best In Class

IRVING, Texas – Feb. 18, 2019 – PRLog — Ellis Partners in Management Solutions is proud to announce the winners of the 2018 Ellis Customer Experience Best in Class Award for Resident Surveys, an award that recognizes the highest community performers on the Ellis Survey Program.  Since beginning this award five years ago in 2014, Ellis has surveyed residents of almost 4,000 apartment communities.  This prestigious award is presented to the top 10% of communities based on results of resident surveys conducted across five touch points – lead conversion, move-in, maintenance, pre-renewal, and move-out.

Ellis Resident Surveys are loyalty-focused, as opposed to many other survey providers who measure customer satisfaction scores. Ellis’ philosophy, based on Net Promoter theory, is that customer loyalty is the ultimate measure of customer relationship success and loyalty is built through the customer experience onsite teams consistently provide. Loyal, rather than merely satisfied, customers will pay more, stay longer, and refer friends and family.

Ellis congratulates the 122 properties below for earning the 2018 Ellis Customer Experience Best in Class Award for Resident Surveys based on their outstanding Customer Experience performance. These properties not only achieved the highest loyalty scores with an average of 91%, up from 90% last year, but also responded to the resident an average of 94% of the time a survey was completed, compared to 95% in 2017, 83% in 2016 and 78% in 2015.

These properties also responded to residents within an average of 4.2 days, more than 1.5 days faster than other properties.  By responding to the resident more frequently and faster, Best In Class properties found themselves building trust and relationships with their residents resulting in a 14% higher likelihood to renew than their peers.

Ellis also recognizes the following companies whose properties earned this prestigious award for 2018:

Affinity Property Management | Block Multifamily Group, LLC | Capstone Real Estate | Carlisle Property Management | Cathcart Property Management | CWS Apartment Homes | Evolve Management Group | GDC Properties | Guardian Management, LLC | HRI Properties | JMG Realty | Landmark Communities | Lincoln Property Company | LMC, a Lennar Company | Longboat Enterprises | Mack Urban Communities | Manco Abbott | MG Properties Group | Mountain States Property Management | Olympus Property | Pinnacle | Provence Real Estate | ResideBPG | Shelton-Cook Real Estate Services | Simpson Property Group | Sparrow Partners | Steadfast Management | Sunrise Management | TM Realty | Zaremba Management Company
