Rental PLATFORM


The goal was to increase engagement and usage of the Zillow Rental Manager (ZRM) portal and property management tools. Testing a personalized header so users could engage more with the ZRM and its tools.
Adding personalization would offer customers a unique experience. The header would ideally pull in dynamic content such as first name, property address, number of properties & rent Zestimates.
