The top storylines in multifamily this week are the Atlanta market, the perils of “unbroken” solutions, millennials and renting, being hardware agnostic, renewals, website accessibility, headwinds and tailwinds in multifamily, rising rents and construction surges.
When things are going well, people tend to let them be. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” is the standard approach when everything flows smoothly. But, what if those “unbroken” solutions are actually causing hidden problems because all the focus is placed on other things?
The top storylines in multifamily this week are rent reporting to credit bureaus, smoke-free apartments, net operating income, flexible rent payments, app tech that drives resident retention, ChatGPT uses and risks, construction soars, higher-income renters increasing and student housing rent growth.

The top storylines in multifamily this week are creating rent payment options for renters, the benefits of flexible leasing terms, how giving back builds better teams, pet-inclusive policies, dealing with loopholes in renters’ insurance and how the latest rate hikes will impact multifamily.
The top storylines in multifamily this week are acting on centralization, balancing automation in multifamily, data and business intelligence, emerging leasing trends in the coming year, the ways multifamily can give back and the White House rental rights proposal.

The top storylines in multifamily this week are the ongoing development of teams, the great multifamily breakup, the importance of settlements, the impact of employment data on multifamily, multifamily executives’ predictions for the coming year and changes PMs and marketers should consider.
