Once an interested telephone call turns into a community visit, you’ll want to really give any prospective residents a way to feel what life is like within your community atmosphere. We know how important it is to truly show those you’re touring around your community what the residence has to offer, and there are ways that you can do just that even in the small time frame of the average tour. The main goal of the showing should be to impress those you’re showing around, and this goes for the residence itself as well as the lifestyle your community offers.

When touring a new community, a prospective resident will often be most concerned with the individual living quarters first, but this doesn’t mean that you can’t make the process of getting there an experience in and of itself. As you’re on your way to a particular residence, make sure to show the prospective resident all of the interesting stops along the way, as this will give them a bit of a feel for what they can experience each time they leave or come back to their new home. Is there a gymnasium on the way? Will you be close to the pool? Are you going to pass the community center? Taking brief stop-offs at all these destinations can really show a person what your community has to offer.

Once you’ve shown the prospective resident the residence they’re interested in, you can then make it a point to showcase the lifestyle you offer. All of those places you may not have been able to stop by on the tour to the living quarters should then be showcased to the individual, or individuals, taking the tour, and emphasis should always be placed on how these amenities are used, how they’re enjoyed, and just what upkeep measures are taken to ensure they’re always available. During this portion of the showing process, you may even wish to quote resident testimonials or fun stories you may have regarding the different aspects of the community, and this can show the true nature of the close-knit and engaging atmosphere.

The showing of your community is undoubtedly important, and this one simple tour should embrace all your community can offer to a prospective resident. For more information about making the most of your community showings, simply contact us today to get started!
