Eliminate Manual Guest Permits and Unauthorized Parking

Manual permits are an administrative nightmare that drains staff resources. Physical stickers and hangtags can get lost, transferred which allows unauthorized access. Switching to a virtual parking management software eliminates the need for physical hangtags and gives managers real-time monitoring of your parking lot.

Residents or guests can manage vehicle registration on our mobile-friendly site (no mobile app download required).

This automation removes the physical interaction in the leasing office to give guest access, saving management time.

Live Dashboard to Monitor Your Lots

ApartmentPermits provides a real-time data on your dashboard where management can monitor every parking occupancy across your apartment complex or multi-family complex. This data can be linked to your parking enforcement company, allowing them to use LPR cameras (license plate recognition) technology to remove unauthorized vehicles, manage ticketing or issue parking citations. If no active permit is found, the system alerts enforcement team.

Three Steps to Total Parking Control

Implementing a digital parking solution is straightforward and requires minimal technical overhead.

  1. Configure Your Zones: Define visitor areas, time limits, reserved parking and parking rules within the admin portal.
  2. Onboard Residents: Sync your rent roll with the parking system to automatically grant residents access to the guest registration portal.
  3. Link Your Parking Enforcement Team: Equip your security team or third-party towing partners with your account.

Maximize Revenue and Reduce Liability

In the event of a dispute or a towing challenge, you possess timestamped evidence of the violation, significantly reducing the risk of wrongful towing claims and legal liability.
