We audited one of our student housing portfolios a few months back (about 12 properties), and identified ~$50,000-70,000 / year in bloated ad spend. If you are looking to do the same and potentially cut ad spend, read on…We started by implementing a CRM to track things like lead source, and lead stage in the pipeline. Powerful optimizations begin with good data. Once we'd collected a year's worth of data, we were able to do some actual analysis o ...

This is very interesting article, in my opinion. I would imagine that most in this group would tackle things differently than Vienna, but the reality is that there are some very strong alignments, such as understanding that affordability is a supply-driven situation and that we need more development in many markets.

Do you know where your data comes from? Not all data is the same. How it's pulled can result in varying (and potentially unpredictable) outcomes–one of the more unpleasant being private data sharing. Using ethically sourced data ensures compliance and precision in your comp reporting and market surveys. Unlike private and semi-private data, market insights from ethical sources are clean, accurate, and unassociated with antitrust litigations. Own ...

If you have a ton of units or if it's obvious that you aren't going to fill up fast... you can do something similar with the available selection or inventory in a certain building filling up... We ran a campaign along the lines of Apply today -- current inventory is at its largest now, and that won't last long...
To that note you can also play into Limited Availability: for example, add a message on the site such as Only a few apartments left in this building!
Going further down the rabbit hole, campaigns and offers can be another way to create a sense of urgency if they are paired well with a hard end date. I.e. Apply before 05/11/2024 and we'll cover your move-in costs etc etc.
Lastly, add a sense of urgency in CTAs (call to action's) on your... Show more
Friends - I need your expertise. ‼️ Is it onsite or on-site when referring to property management? Hyphen or no hyphen? 🚨 Merriam Webster says on-site should be hyphenated. The Cambridge dictionary includes onsite (without the hyphen) and on-site (hyphenated), while the American Heritage dictionary only lists onsite (no hyphen).
On-site is the preferred use when being used as an adjective or adverb before a noun, as is off-site. On site or off site are preferred use after a noun or pronoun when used as a location phrase versus referring directly to the noun.
Onsite is accepted more these days in American English as hyphen use fades, but offsite is less accepted in the dehyphenization "movement."
Technically onsite or on-site are both correct, but on-site is still, for now, the preferred grammatical term.

One of the biggest benefits of apartment living is maintaining a resident's apartment. Residents don't have to try to find a contractor, don't have to wade through reviews, don't have to price shop, and don't even have to alter their schedule to be there while their problem is fixed. But do we do a great job of showcasing that value beyond saying, "we provide maintenance"? Tony Sousa recently wrote, "Maintenance is your ...
