Everything You Need to Close Leases

Filter by Stage, Property, or Status

See all new inquiries at once. Filter down to a single property. Show only unread messages. Combine filters to find exactly what you need in one click.

Keep Conversation Context Together

Review listing and conversation history in one place. Each protected Contact Owner form routes the inquiry to the relevant property's owner.

Response Time Tracking

See how quickly you're responding to inquiries. Fast response times lead to more signed leases — renters in The Villages often contact multiple owners and go with whoever replies first.

How It Works

Simple, Fast, No Setup

01

Listing Inquiries Arrive Securely

Each public listing has a protected Contact Owner web form. No renter account or app is required, and each inquiry is routed to the relevant property's owner.

02

Review the Context

Open a thread to see its listing and conversation context. The website does not publish an owner phone number or email as a renter contact fallback.

03

Track the Stage

Move the lead through your pipeline as the conversation progresses. New → Contacted → Touring → Negotiating → Signed. Or mark it Lost if the renter goes elsewhere. Filter by stage to see your active pipeline.

Questions About the Lead Pipeline

Which plans include the Lead Pipeline?

The owner pipeline is included with every listing. It organizes inquiries sent through that listing's protected Contact Owner web form.

How do inquiries get into my pipeline?

A renter opens your public listing and submits its protected Contact Owner form. No renter account or app is required, your public phone and email stay private, and the inquiry is routed to you as the relevant owner.

Can I reply to inquiries from my dashboard?

Legacy thread actions remain subject to the controls shown in the Owner Portal. The website does not publish your phone number or email as a renter contact fallback.

What are the pipeline stages?

There are 6 stages: New (just received), Contacted (you've replied), Touring (renter is visiting or reviewing), Negotiating (discussing terms), Signed (lease done), and Lost (didn't work out). You can change the stage anytime with a single click.

Can I filter inquiries by property?

Yes. If you have multiple properties, use the property dropdown to see inquiries for just one listing. You can also combine this with stage filters — for example, show only "New" inquiries for a specific property.

Will I get notified of new inquiries?

New Contact Owner submissions are recorded for the relevant property and owner. Review the Owner Portal for the current inquiry and notification controls available to your account.
