Rental apartment seekers value the ease of renting. Lumo webstore has been popular for several years due to its clarity and ease of use. These descriptions frequently appear in customer feedback.

“Renting online should be so easy that anyone can do it anytime. Our service is also based on the idea that the customer chooses us, not the other way around,” explains Liisa Reinilä, Sales Manager, who is deeply involved in the development of the Lumo webstore.

“It’s wonderful that you make renting easy! In the midst of shift work and a busy schedule, it’s frustrating to go to apartment viewings and queue.”

“In April 2024, all customers, i.e. 100 percent of those who rented an apartment from the Lumo webstore, recommended the service. The overall recommendation percentage at the end of May was 93/100. This is an extremely high result and truly humbling,” Reinilä rejoices.

The newest features of the webstore have increased the occupancy rate

The original Lumo webstore was launched in 2015. Roughly in its current form, the webstore was released at lumo.fi in 2020, but the service has been significantly developed after that as well. Major updates in recent years have included map search, Apartment Agent, and travel time search.

“Statistics show that customers who have utilised the newest features of the webstore rent an apartment from us more often than others. Thus, they find a suitable home more easily,” says Reinilä, and continues:

“Of course, the develop work of the webstore still continues. For example, customers have not yet seen the final form of the AI-based Apartment Agent. We continuously collect feedback and conduct user surveys and research to understand where we can still improve,” Reinilä explains.

In the future, the lumo.fi website will also better consider accessibility, such as customers with mobility and visual impairments that may affect their ability to use the site.

“Feedback that warms my heart especially includes those where customers mention being in a difficult life situation, but despite the great stress or grief, finding and renting a new home has been easy and quick through the Lumo webstore,” Reinilä rejoices.

The purpose of the Lumo webstore is specifically to make life easier for customers looking for a new home.

“Easy to make a rental agreement and no need to worry about whether you’ll get the apartment or not.”
