New partnership makes Xfinity high-speed internet available through RentCafe, offering residents convenience from day one
PHILADELPHIA, PA – JUNE 13, 2024 – Xfinity Communities today announced a strategic partnership with Yardi, a leading real estate software provider, to offer residents Xfinity’s powerful internet connectivity at move-in, directly through Yardi’s RentCafe resident portal. The partnership makes Xfinity Internet, known for its secure, high-speed connectivity and network reliability, along with other Xfinity services, available for residents to select in RentCafe, an innovative platform by Yardi that streamlines the resident journey from unit selection to move-in.
Today’s property managers face a unique set of challenges. Resident expectations have rapidly evolved alongside technologies, tools and trends. Offering residents a seamless, innovative, and personalized experience at key moments of need to access amenities like advanced connectivity, entertainment, and mobile is a great way to differentiate a property and boost success.
“Easily signing up for Wi-Fi is crucial to a seamless move-in experience. Allowing residents to select their Wi-Fi service with a few clicks during the move-in process improves both convenience and efficiency,” said Akshai Rao, President of Residential at Yardi. “We are confident in our partnership with Xfinity Communities and look forward to taking yet another step in helping our clients deliver exceptional resident experiences.”
Through this partnership, Yardi and Xfinity Communities aim to set a new precedent for the multifamily industry by making the move-in process as easy and modern as possible.
“The multifamily market is evolving towards a more convenient, streamlined approach to amenity offerings. Technology integrations such as this are critical to simplifying the entire rental journey for prospects, residents, and staff,” said Emily Waldorf, Senior Vice President, Consumer Internet Services, Comcast. “We’re proud to partner with Yard and to provide their client’s residents easy access to advanced connectivity and other Xfinity services they need.”
