For Rent Media SolutionsTM Introduces ForRent.comTM-The Magazine to the Connecticut Market

 

ForRent.com- The Magazine expands to Connecticut, offering an additional resource for property managers looking to advertise apartments for rent

Norfolk, VA-(December 14, 2006) - For Rent Media Solutions, a leading apartment resource for searching apartment communities nationwide and a division of Dominion Enterprises, is proud to announce the launch of ForRent.com- The Magazine in Connecticut. The magazine hit the stands on November 20th.

“I am particularly excited about the launch of ForRent.com- The Magazine in Connecticut,” says Anita Williams, regional manager for ForRent.com-The Magazine. “This will be the first statewide launch since the magazine debuted in 2005. We are excited to offer this product to the entire Connecticut market and expect to receive excellent feedback from property managers and apartment seekers.”

ForRent.com- The Magazine is the newest publication offered by For Rent Media Solutions. This free, monthly magazine offers a variety of apartments for rent in Connecticut. Every apartment listing in this magazine is accompanied by a link to that apartment community’s page on the For Rent website. Apartment seekers can also find ForRent.com- The Magazine in Birmingham, Ala., and Nashville, Tenn., as well as Raleigh, Charlotte and the Triad area of North Carolina.

“I am extremely excited to join For Rent Media Solutions and assist with the launch of ForRent.com- The Magazine in Connecticut,” says Andrew Harrison, general sales manager for ForRent.com- The Magazine in Connecticut. “In my previous position as a property manager, I had the opportunity to advertise with For Rent Media Solutions, using their print and internet combination. I think ForRent.com- The Magazine offers a product unlike any product offered in the industry and I am honored to have the opportunity to share that with potential clients.”

The print and internet combination has proven to be beneficial to ForRent.com- The Magazine markets. From January 2006, a month after the arrival of ForRent.com-The Magazine in Raleigh, N.C., to November 2006, LEADSTM for print and internet advertisers have increased by over 350 percent compared to LEADS of those who use online advertising only.

For Rent® Announces New Identity as For Rent Media SolutionsTM

For Rent Media Solutions offers the Multi-Housing industry multiple solutions for their multiple marketing needs.

Norfolk, VA-(October 6, 2006) - For Rent®, a division of Dominion Enterprises, a leading apartment resource for searching apartment communities nationwide, has evolved into For Rent Media Solutions to further accommodate the wide variety of marketing needs for the Multi-Housing industry.

“Since the launch of For Rent Magazine® in 1982, For Rent has grown to 63 For Rent publications, 13 Para RentarTM publications, six Senior OutlookTM publications, five websites and most recently two Condominium publications,” says Terry Slattery, vice president and general manager of For Rent Media Solutions. “For Rent has taken the next step in the growth and development of our company, by evolving into For Rent Media Solutions. The name For Rent Media Solutions was chosen to reflect the superior service clients receive from a company that offers an entire suite of products and customer service that are unmatched in the industry.”

For Rent Media Solutions appeals to the needs of apartment seekers searching for traditional multi-family housing as well as senior and corporate housing. Para Rentar was recently added to appeal to the needs of our Spanish-speaking prospects.

The launch comes right on the heels of the much anticipated formation of Dominion Enterprises, the new parent company of For Rent Media Solutions.  Dominion Enterprises was established on September 12, 2006 as a result of the completed transaction dividing the assets of its predecessor company, Trader Publishing Company, between 50-50 co-owners Landmark Communications, Inc., and Cox Enterprises.  The transaction gave Landmark 100 percent ownership of the media and information service properties in the real estate, employment, recreation and industrial categories.  Landmark’s assets now form Dominion Enterprises.

“The change to the name For Rent Media Solutions represents the many ways we bring apartment communities and potential residents together,” says Jack Ross, senior vice president of Dominion Advertising Media.  “We have multiple ways to assist our customers, and we are reaching diverse consumers through our growing array of products and services.”    

For Rent Media Solutions provides a broad array of products to fulfill the multiple marketing needs of the Multi-Housing industry.  Apartment seekers and property managers interested in learning more should visit the For Rent Media Solutions website.
