ESG

Xeal and Harrison Street today announced a partnership under which Xeal will install more than 300 EV charging stations at select Harrison Street senior housing, student housing, life science, and medical office properties located in California, Massachusetts, Texas and Virginia.

The top storylines in multifamily this week are automation and centralization, getting ready for EV charging, avoiding team burnout, tight market brings bidding wars to multifamily, the increase of ESG in multifamily and paying rent to evicted residents.

The decision by all major auto manufacturers to offer EVs and PHEVs in affordable, midsize, and luxury models has driven up appeal, meaning EV charging stations are beginning to shift from amenity to necessity.

For several years, there was a lot of talk about the impending increases in the development, production and sales of electric vehicles (EV). The anticipation for the EV movement has finally come to an end, and it’s time for multifamily to prepare.

The top storylines in multifamily this week are revenue recovery, pet waste, vacancy rates, FCC broadband rule, community connectivity and ESG frameworks.
