LeasingAI Modes give you granular control over how your AI assistant engages prospects — from the discovery questions it asks, to the screening criteria it enforces, to whether it pushes tours or applications. Most operators are running their default setup. The ones seeing the best results have built custom modes tailored to each community's leasing strategy.
In this session, Jacob Kosior, VP of Client Strategy at EliseAI, sits down with Ruthie Woodard, Director of Leasing at University Partners, to walk through exactly how her team configures and deploys LeasingAI Modes across their portfolio. Whether you've been on LeasingAI for years or just launched, this is a hands-on session designed to help you get more from the tool you already have.
