Celebrating Venterra’s Healthcare Heroes
Venterra Realty, a property management company that owns and operates 60 apartment communities in the US, is home to over 5,000 Healthcare Heroes. Whether a doctor, nurse, EMT or pharmacist, medical professionals have risen to the challenge during the COVID-19 pandemic, and their contributions to keeping us safe have not gone unnoticed. As we navigate the difficulties and stressors the pandemic has plunged upon us all, we are so grateful for the sacrifices Healthcare Heroes are making and, as an organization, we want to say Thank You!
To support medical professionals needing to move, we waived deposits for new leases with approved credit in June. Now, we are celebrating our current Venterra residents in the medical field by sharing their stories, providing residents with honorary “Health Care Hero” t-shirts, and offering over $50,000 in gift cards as our way of simply saying, Thank You.
Online Reputation Specialist, Johnna Bacak said, “When we asked our residents to nominate a Healthcare Hero within their community, I never expected we would get over 500 submissions. Each nomination was full of intimate details about the Healthcare Hero, and I was humbled after reading each submission. I felt such a connection with them!”
According to Johnna, “Some of my favorite nominations were spouses nominating each other, expressing their love and gratitude. One of my favorites is Juan, from Northbridge in Orlando, Florida, nominating his wife, Nicole. He said, ‘Nicole an amazing and caring human being. She started her career as a medical assistant, and now she is pursuing her physician assistant masters. She is devoted to helping others and I am proud of her for that. She is passionate about her job, and it reflects in her personal life. I am proud to call her my wife. She looks just as good in her scrubs as she did in her wedding dress.’”
Here are some of our other favorite stories.
Paramedics, nurses, respiratory therapists, doctors, hospice caretakers: we are so privileged that these Healthcare Heroes call our communities home and we are honored to surprise them with special Healthcare Hero t-shirts and gift cards! Check out some of their pictures below.
Looking for a way to thank the medical professionals in your community? Here are some great ideas to consider!

Venterra Realty applies LAST™ advanced disinfectant at communities
As apartment community managers reassess cleaning protocols to ensure the health and safety of our residents, the adaptation of intensive disinfecting and cleaning methods remains a high priority. With a strong focus on high-touch surfaces in common areas, such as door handles, mailboxes, desks, vending machines, and more, anything that gets touched frequently in common areas is a prime candidate for disinfecting.
Venterra Realty uses LAST™ from Dis.In.Fx. LAST™ to aid in protection from COVID-19 in common areas and apartment amenities. Going beyond our gold standard of cleanliness, applying LAST™ disinfects hard surfaces and provides protection for up to 90 days.

Residents Cash Out on Venterra’s $10K Giveaway
Almost 4,000 residents recently participated in Venterra’s $10K Giveaway, earning them a spot in the drawing for $1,000 in rent credit. Ten lucky residents were selected and thrilled by the news that rent would be one less thing to worry about in the month ahead.
To be eligible, residents were to set up Auto-Pay via the resident portal and successfully pay their rent by June 3. The resident portal, known as the Venterra SMARTHUB™, puts everything residents need at their fingertips. Residents can pay rent, submit maintenance requests, voice concerns, and stay updated all in one central location. It’s free and easy for residents to join and set up a recurring or one-time payment.
With Venterra’s leasing offices temporarily closed or on reduced staff due to the Coronavirus pandemic, paying online provides residents a safe, contact-free way to pay rent. Although many of our leasing offices have since opened, The Venterra SMARTHUB™ remains the fastest and most convenient way to pay.
The giveaway contest began June 1, 2020 and ran through midnight June 3, 2020. Residents who were already set up on Auto–Pay through The Venterra SMARTHUB™ were automatically entered into the contest. Our Regional Managers were also on standby to assist residents with signing up for Auto-Pay.
Stephanie Burns, an eight-year veteran at Venterra, has a reputation for WOWing residents through Venterra’s WOW Matters program where “We care more. We listen better.” is a way of life. With Venterra’s WOW Matters program, Experience Leaders know how to listen for even the unspoken needs of residents and will go out of their way to personalize their experiences at Venterra.
“I’m so surprised and shocked but happy.” Jonathan at Cobblestone (Fleming Island, FL)
“WOW! That is such great news!” Siva at Estancia at Morningstar (The Colony, TX)
The drawing for the winners of the giveaway took place on Friday, June 3. Winners were publicly announced on Venterra’s Facebook page as well as all 60 community pages on Tuesday, June 9, 2020.
Venterra continues to look for ways to support and encourage residents and looks forward to coming up with more creative ideas for future resident contests soon!

Did you know that, on average, more than 40 million people move each year in the United States? And it’s estimated that 80% of those moves occur between April and September. These times of year tend to be peak season because the weather is better, kids aren’t in school, college students are moving for the new school year and it’s a good time to sell a home. With 3D tours, Video Touring, and FaceTime becoming the new norm, Venterra has you covered. By providing virtual online experiences, such as 3D tours, Video Touring and FaceTime, we allow our future residents an easy, carefree way of leasing an apartment from the comfort of their couch!
