HILO, HAWAII – March 27, 2013 – Finding a rental on the Island of Hawai’i just got a lot easier. Day-Lum Rentals, the largest property management company on the Big Island, has launched a new app for the iPhone and iPad to help renters find their new home faster.
Developed by AS Designs & Services and experienced Apple app designers, the new app allows renters to see what listings Day-Lum has available at any given time. These are the same listings that are available on Day-Lum’s rental web site.
“We love the new app,” says Nancy Cabral, owner of Day-Lum Rentals. “We are thrilled to be able to give the properties we manage much greater exposure and accessibility to all potential clients around the world via our new Day-Lum app!”
Map-Based Rental Listings
The easy-to-use intuitive interface works like most other iPhone and iPad apps. Users touch the screen to view the rental listings in various different ways. An interactive map of the area shows push-pins that allow the user to click and see more information about a particular unit.
The Day-Lum Rental app also shows listing by the newest addition. In just a few moments, users can check to see what’s new on the market.
Makes Searching Easier
“Like most renters, we juggled the newspaper, CraigsList and a map. It was time-consuming to coordinate all that info and go looking for a rental,” says early adopter and Hamakua resident, Bob Conn. “With the Day-Lum Rental app, we had all their rentals in our iPhone. It was easy to look at a lot more properties in one trip.”
Future Improvements
In this first version of the Day-Lum Rental app, users can look at the Newest Listings, All Listings, Listings by Town, and Listing on a map. In future versions, users will be able to search by numbers of bedrooms and bathrooms, rent price, pet acceptance, and other options.
