10ants.com Launches iPhone App to Support Tenants in More Than 140,000 Apartment Communities

    SOUTH WINDSOR, CT, May 08, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- With a focus on adding value to the rental experience, www.10ants.com launched an iPhone app enabling tenants in more than 140,000 apartment communities to communicate more effectively with fellow residents and staff.

"Although this release is limited in features, it is the first app designed exclusively for the tenant of an apartment community. Other apps help locate an apartment," stated Nathan Skinner, President of 10ants, LLC.

"Tenants are turning to their social networks more and more for answers. They are looking to meet, explore and share information with neighbors living right down the hall or in the next building." www.Facebook.com is great for sharing with everyone you know. 10ants is great for sharing what you want with just your neighbors. "There are things you might not want EVERYONE to know," Skinner added.

Skinner, who has managed over 1,000 apartments and also co-founded ApartmentLINKS.com in 1996, noted that "tenants of apartment communities want to interact with each other and are no longer limited to online brochures and advertisements to research and learn about their new apartment."

The site promotes communication between the residents of an apartment community or building in a fun and productive way. Users can create a profile, upload photos and videos, meet neighbors, create and manage clubs or special interest groups, publish details about upcoming events and send electronic invitations to select individuals or to all neighbors. They can buy, sell or swap items through free classified ads, post information and news on their community's front page and send messages to one or more individuals and create their own blogs. Messages can be posted on friends' profile pages using Ant Notes. Tenants can find and share information about businesses in their neighborhood and find out about community and local events.

As a social networking site, 10ants is free to use and one that can provide great assistance to apartment renters who wish to personalize and expedite their communication with the local community. 10ants will also introduce innovative new features for the renter's convenience in the months ahead.
