Multifamily development is at the highest levels in 50 years with about 1 million units actively under construction nationally. Given the volume of new apartment inventory competing for a limited demand pool, how can lease-up operators gain an edge?

Join revenue operations leaders for an executive discussion about the specific considerations — from marketing to leasing to pricing and more — informing strategy differentiation and optimization of the lease-up process in a highly competitive and uncertain market.  

Topics explored with Western Wealth Communities’ Joni Carroll, Kettler’s John Lawler and RealPage’s Dustin Gregg, moderated by RealPage® Chief Economist Jay Parsons, include:
