PointCentral Self-Guided Tours vs Walk In IQ

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.

Walk In IQ is a smart access control and property automation platform for property owners and managers. It targets multifamily, student housing, build-to-rent, and senior living properties. Prospective renters can schedule and complete self-guided tours through the SelfTour IQ mobile app, while staff track leads and communicate through a web portal. The platform can issue digital keys to residents, staff, and contractors; residents can manage household and guest access through a mobile app. Energy tools can monitor usage, manage thermostats across properties, and alert staff to extreme temperatures or overuse. Walk In IQ describes integrations with property management systems, access control and lock hardware, and energy management systems. Its FAQ says existing property hardware is used in most cases. Customers can select individual items and features because the platform is offered a la carte. Pricing is per unit per month and paid annually, but numeric rates are not published; visitors are directed to request a demo or quote. The platform is available on Android, iOS, and web. Walk In Corp is headquartered in New Rochelle, New York.
