The Problem: Apartment Parking Is a Daily Battle

Property managers at apartment complexes know the frustration. Residents call about vehicles parked in their assigned spaces. Guests circle the parking lot looking for visitor parking. Paper permits get lost, shared, or counterfeited. And tracking vehicle registration for every resident becomes a full-time job nobody wants.

Traditional residential parking permit programs create more problems than they solve. Manual permit applications pile up. Enforcement officers can’t keep up with violations. Residents get frustrated when their guest permits don’t work. Meanwhile, unauthorized motor vehicles take up valuable parking spaces while paying tenants have nowhere to park.

By utilizing Parkify’s technology, we were able to tap into the late-night activity in the district and generate revenue from our front lot—previously reserved for future residents and daytime guests.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do residents apply for a residential parking permit?

Residents complete an online application through Parkify’s parking portal. They upload proof of residency such as a lease agreement or utility bill, provide their driver’s license and current vehicle registration, and submit payment by credit card. The system verifies required documents and issues a digital permit linked to their license plate. No paper forms, no office visits, no waiting.

How does Parkify handle visitor parking and guest permits?

Residents validate visitor parking directly through text or email with no app download required. They enter the guest’s license plate, select the parking duration, and the visitor receives instant confirmation. Property managers can set limits on guest permits per resident, restrict visitor passes to certain hours, or require approval for extended stays. The scan-to-pay feature also allows guests to pay for parking independently.

What happens when a vehicle without a valid permit parks in the residential zone?

License plate recognition cameras monitor every vehicle entering your parking area. When the system detects a motor vehicle without a valid residential parking permit, it automatically issues a digital citation and alerts property management. No enforcement officers needed. No manual ticket writing. Parking enforcement runs 24/7.

Can Parkify track vehicle registration and permit expiration?

Yes. The system maintains complete records of every permit holder’s vehicle registration, driver’s license information, and permit status. When a permit nears expiration, residents receive automated renewal reminders. Property managers can view real-time reports showing active permits, expired permits, and vehicles requiring updated vehicle registration.

How does Parkify handle temporary permits for contractors or short-term residents?

Property managers issue temporary permits through the parking portal in seconds. Set custom expiration dates, restrict access to specific parking spaces or zones, and track all temporary permit activity. The system automatically revokes access when permits expire, preventing unauthorized vehicles from lingering in your residential parking permit area.

What if a resident loses their permit or gets a new vehicle?

Since Parkify uses digital permits linked to license plates, there’s nothing physical to lose. When a resident gets a new motor vehicle, they simply update their vehicle registration in the portal and the system transfers their permit to the new license plate. No replacement fee, no new permit application, no waiting.
