New Truths about Prospective Renters
On Monday, December 11, Chelsea Kneeland and Marcus Armstrong will present - The New Truths about Prospective Renters: What Research is Revealing.
This session will explore how decisions made today in marketing and operations will impact the future of leasing and the income potential for your assets and portfolio far into the future. As the market is only becoming more competitive, how much do we really know about future renters and their preferences when making those decisions? How has the search for apartments changed with the onslaught of single-family rentals? What does Gen Z value when making rental decisions, and what consumer behaviors set generations apart? Join us to explore these new truths that challenge conventional thinking around today’s renters by reviewing the findings of the latest J Turner Research study.
