Every business has customers, and multifamily real estate investing is no different. Our customers are our Residents, and we treat them with the respect and value that any good business treats it’s customers. When you change the language from tenant to resident, it changes your perception of the relationship between your real estate, and the people and families that live there. Thirty six percent of Americans are life long renters. Whether our residents are life long renters, or living in our property for a year, we know that this is their home. We strive to engage with our residents, and establish a community that both improves their daily lives, incentivizes them to stay with us, and hopefully has them recommend us to their friends.
