Event Details

If the process of getting an apartment ready begins when the apartment is vacant, we’re already late. What if we had a plan wherein the make ready can begin at move in, continue through occupancy and then complete at move out? This would allow for decreased lost rent as the apartment will be “Made Ready” faster, with a better outcome your entire team can be proud of! Are you ready?
