CASE STUDY
Terrace on Walnut
Due to the absence of on-site staff, Quext retrofitted the mixed-use community of Terrace on Walnut with Smart Access Control customized for remote management capabilities like self-guided tours, self move-ins, access management, and unit turns.
The success of this partnership increased property value, decreased operating cost, bolstered the recent resale value of Terrace on Walnut, and led to additional projects with the commercial tenant, Big Brothers Big Sisters.
“Quext has made life in property management so much easier! We have eliminated the need to make an extra trip when someone is locked out, and the residents love the ease of using their phones to unlock the door.”
Anna HickokVP of Operations
Frequently asked questions
How do you manage security?
Quext Web Manager is a centralized platform to control access throughout the building. It makes it easy to add or remove residents or commercial tenant employees. We recommend the mobile access app as a first choice for residents and key fobs as a back up. If a phone gets stolen, it is password protected. When a resident logs into a different device, their last session is logged out immediately — instantly disabling their old device.
How do you manage commercial tenant employees?
We recommend that commercial tenant employees unlock doors with the mobile access app. This maintains security when there is staff turnover. Since no keys are exchanged, access can be revoked remotely. Many mixed-use properties choose to give commercial tenants and their employees access to amenity spaces as an additional perk.
How do you keep WiFi networks secure?
Quext Managed WiFi provides secure, private networks for each apartment. This is safer than Bulk WiFi, which creates a single shared WiFi network that all residents can access. We even handle customer service, maintenance, and repairs so property managers can focus on their core operations while providing residents with a reliable internet connection.
