AFIRE Podcast #29: Revolutionizing Residential Operations

(Featuring Jonathan Ellenzweig, CIO, Tricon Residential)

Advancing automation, tech-driven amenities, and community building is key to winning—and keeping today’s tech-savvy residents.

In a crowded residential marketplace of products, opportunities, and managers, how does an investor select the right investment? And how can investors outperform, especially during and after a worldwide pandemic?

It’s no secret that COVID-19 has forced many real estate companies to innovate by leveraging new technologies to maintain business continuity during the pandemic—within and beyond the residential sector. How can the ability to lead in innovation be translated into real estate, especially in a new world needing fast adaptation?

In this episode of the AFIRE Podcast, Jonathan Ellenzweig (Tricon Residential), discusses how consumer technology can also easily be integrated into residential assets to enhance the overall resident experience.

This podcast is based on the article “Revolutionizing Residential Operations” from Summit Journal (Fall 2020). Read the full article here.
