New virtual dimension for student accommodation market

LiveSpace, specialist developer of fully-interactive 3D visualisation software for the property market, has announced a partnership with Fresh Student Living. The student accommodation management company will be using LiveSpace's 3D visualisation app to increase letting revenue and streamline the rental process. The app brings a new level of convenience and functionality to those seeking student accommodation by providing fully-interactive views of the property. Students can access the app from anywhere in the world on tablets and laptops, and view accommodation options.

"As the generation that does almost everything online, students can use the LiveSpace App to make their lives easier by giving them the functionality and convenience when searching for somewhere to live that they experience in all other areas of life," says Dr Stefan Fafinski, Managing Director, LiveSpace.

"The app saves them both time and money because they don't need to travel or make appointments to view accommodation. This is especially beneficial for international or regional students where physically visiting the properties is not always practical. In addition, properties of interest can be added to a favourites list and if anything about a favourite changes, such as price or availability, users are notified immediately."

The LiveSpace App essentially takes online viewing and interactive visualisation a step further by providing students with a 24-hour a day shop window.

"Not only can users get an actual first-hand view of rooms and apartments, but once they've made a decision, they can quickly link back to Fresh Student Living's website by clicking the book now button. This enables them to apply, pay for and take care of all the documentation simply and effectively," says Fafinski.

Denise Stewart, head of sales and marketing, Fresh Student Living, says: "The new app really enhances our current online 24/7 shop window and has enabled us to streamline the entire process. From viewing of the property through to signing the documentation, the process is carried out quickly and easy. In addition, the app give us the reassurance of longevity in the student lettings market by ensuring that we can maximise our occupancy rates."
