PointCentral Self-Guided Tours vs Tourzy

PointCentral Self-Guided Tours helps rental property managers arrange and manage prospective residents’ property visits. Prospects can book a showing through a property website, sometimes with a “Tour Now” option. Managers can list or delist properties through a synced property management system or the PointCentral dashboard, then set tour schedules and durations. Bookings can create temporary access codes, sent by text and deactivated when the scheduled tour ends. Smart locks and access-control keypads support remote entry; available safeguards include credit-card and ID verification, with CheckpointID handling identity checks using uploaded ID photos and selfies. Geo-fencing can require prospects to be within a two-mile radius before a code is sent. After a visit, the system can send surveys and pass lead details to a CRM. PointCentral says it integrates with 30+ property-management solutions, CRM platforms, work automation and identity-verification services. The product is presented for multifamily, single-family and build-to-rent properties, and is available on Android, iOS and the web. It is paid, with pricing on request.

Tourzy is a self-showing platform for tours of homes and apartments. Buyers and renters can book a 30-minute window from the seller’s available times, verify their identity and enter using a secure smart lock; the door relocks when the window ends. Tours can be canceled without charge up to two hours before the visit, and visitors can go without an agent or bring their own. Clearly posted cameras monitor living areas without audio, with a live operator on standby. Visitors can enter priorities such as budget, bedrooms and location to see nearby listings ranked by fit. During a visit, they can tap for room information or message the operator, save personalized notes afterward and submit an offer from the app. Single-family home builders and multifamily communities use the platform to make homes available for tours and track tour performance. Tourzy says evening and weekend tours are possible when sellers have openings. The service is listed for iOS and web; its iPhone app is described as a tool for property owners and installers to manage tours and access. Pricing is available on request.
