Why was the product developed?
Apartment and Rental Connection realized a need in the market
for an enterprise application for managing and running an
apartment locator service. Sai Tech Ventures, LLC designed,
developed and integrated the Apartment Wizard – Apartment
Locator Buddy to meet the need and requirements of Apartment
and Rental Connection.
- Apartment and Rental Connection required a Web presence
fro their Metropolitan area to attract users in need of
apartments and to tell people what they do and how they
provide such a fabulous service.
- The primary function of the Apartment Locator Buddy
is to help agents find suitable apartments for their prospects
by querying its databases, as well as manage its prospects
and properties via the Prospect Management and Property
Management Modules
*The tool is designed for generating Invoices and maintaining
Accounts
*It’s very well designed to manage Human Resources
in either an employee or independent contractor format
as well as maintain one’s schedule by implementing
the Time Management module.
*The “Apartment Wizard” also generates a wide
range of very useful reports that help a Manager, Administrator,
or Owner be able to track the activities of Agents as
well be able to gather any and all kinds of information
as required.
*The “Apartment Wizard” is an Intelligent
System as it automates a part of the business process,
which cuts down the time and efforts of the agents and
also helps to speed up the research and leasing process
using comprehensive search engines built into the application.
- Artificial Intelligence is built into the Apartment
Wizard system to collect and send information pertinent
to the various needs of clients based on time constraints
and acknowledged requirements. It parses leads automatically
from various sources and ‘dumps’ accurate
information into the database instead of requiring data
entry from multiple lead sources.

and clients.
It’s developed based on the following technology:
- Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++

Value Proposition
- An enterprise application of this nature would probably
take more than a year to complete and run in the amount
of several hundred thousand dollars. This is not possible
for most organizations and hence Sai Tech Ventures is
offering the tool as a Web Application Module, where clients
‘lease’ the software for an upfront fee and
monthly per user license.
- Therefore, instead of spending a lot of time, money
and effort to create, manage, and upgrade their own tool;Apartment
and Rental Connection gets a semi-customized tool including
upgrades, hosting, and maintenance.
- The Apartment Wizard is offered in a turnkey package:
agent tool, data entry, hosting, maintenance, free upgrades,
as well as individual websites for education and sales
opportunities.
