Website Performance

Wasatch Property Management entrusted LeaseLabs with their corporate and property websites since 2010.

Corporate Website: An In-App Experience

In late 2016, LeaseLabs launched Wasatch's 3rd portfolio design iteration, incorporating modern property search functionality, breathing life into their corporate site UI elements, and redefining how renters search and discover local apartments on a corporate management site.

Feature Set:

  • App Influenced UI/UX
  • Angular Property Search
  • Advanced Search Filters
  • Map/Gird Views
  • Property Favorites
  • Property Microsites
  • Pricing/Availability Integrations

Property Websites: Scrolling Page Architecture

Along with a new corporate website, Wasatch's portfolio of 60+ property websites were revamped on a Scrolling Page Architecture platform, creating a seamless scrolling experience for its users. The single page, dynamically loading websites load all interior pages upfront with a single page-load, and register unique page visits as the user scrolls down the site - allowing users to absorb all the property's content without having to hit page navigation links.
