BEYOND RENT: Improve Asset Utilization
Now Available On Demand
Revenue management at its core revolves around asset utilization--achieving optimal occupancy and the right rent price. If occupancy is too low and rent is too little, everyone loses. So, how do you ensure you’re winning as much as possible? One critical factor is exposure—how much risk is foreseeable in the future—and the ability to accurately predict when you’re going to be full.
Join Amy Dreyfuss, Senior Vice President, RealPage Revenue Management, and Rich Hughes, RealPage’s Head of Data Science as they go beyond rent to discuss how revenue management can improve asset utilization by:
- Reducing AVD (average vacant days) and exposure
- Leveraging move-in holds and expirations for greater lease optionality
- Analyzing the market and your positioning to impact pricing strength
- Understanding the difference unit performance (granularity) vs. community averages makes

He does this by analyzing data to predict outcomes, giving apartment operators prescriptive recommendations that are mathematically solvent and intelligence that is continually learning.
