The top storylines in multifamily this week are offering the right amenities, maintenance retention, evolution of multifamily tech, the rise of sustainability, using TikTok in multifamily marketing, ChatGPT and lead generation and the hidden costs of chronic understaffing.

As apartment operators calibrate their focus on further accommodating modern renters, sustainability is playing a key role in their plans. More renters are becoming aware of their environmental footprint and are making more environment and health oriented decisions in their personal lives.

Xeal, a leading provider of EV charging stations and smarter technology for the multifamily industry, today announced that former ChargePoint executives Mike DiNucci and Joan Dunne are joining the company as Senior Vice President of Sales and Head of Revenue Operations, respectively.

With wellness and sustainability at the forefront of many residents’ minds, it’s worth reexamining some of the best practices being implemented at apartment communities when it comes to keeping residents, associates and pets safe and healthy.
