The idea of automation can feel daunting, especially in an industry that has been experiencing unprecedented growth for the past several years. Property management teams lead this charge, notoriously carrying heavy workloads with little time left for planning automation. As markets grow and workloads increase, the pressure to simplify internal processes…
This week, there was a slight slowdown in the recent streak of strong week-over-week gains as some of the metrics, especially leading indicators such traffic and leases per week, are on pause from the increase from last week.

During this reporting period, there has been very minimal movement recorded in the leading metrics, although national NER did post another sizeable gain.

The national occupancy rate was down 0.1% YoY, but the leased percentage rate had risen by 0.2%. So, frankly, most of the national operating metrics are not down a whole lot from their pre-pandemic highs. This doesn’t mean that certain metros haven’t experienced major turbulence.

Multifamily performance data continues to behave like it did during the mid-summer, when the pandemic induced a variety of ups and downs. Typically, seasonality means things slow down a bit in the fall, and we see very little difference in metrics week over week.
Labor Day marked the unofficial end of summer. On a national basis, multifamily data and metrics have been hovering around the same points since mid-summer. But in the week ending on Sept. 6, we saw the biggest closing of that YoY gap since March.
With the coronavirus pandemic continuing to rage in many parts of the country, the week ending on Aug. 9 showed most of the major apartment metrics experiencing slight declines, according to Radix data. National occupancy and leased percentage rates were flat.
In general, the apartment market has shown fairly steady improvement since its low points early on in the pandemic. Last week, I cautioned that one bad week can be just that: one bad week. During the week ending on July 19, we saw moderately positive uptick.

Recently I’ve heard many people talking about the wonders of scraping websites and how it will solve all of our data gathering problems. And unfortunately, I must disagree. But before delving into why I believe web scraping is a flawed practice, it is important to truly understand what it is. While web scraping can… Continue reading Is Web Scraping the Answer?
Everyone knows how important it is to capture asking rents from competing apartment communities.
