The multifamily real estate industry is experiencing an AI-driven transformation, but adoption is uneven, creating a growing gap between large institutional landlords and smaller property owners. Larger firms, equipped with the resources to integrate AI into leasing, maintenance, and asset management, are reaping efficiency and cost-saving benefits. In contrast, smaller landlords, many still managing properties with spreadsheets, risk being left behind.
Industry leaders predict AI will become even more integral in the coming years, streamlining operations, enhancing tenant engagement, and improving revenue management. However, the challenge remains: How can smaller landlords access and implement these technologies to stay competitive in an increasingly digital market?
