Multifamily Housing

Optimize costs and increase housing portfolio value.

Multifamily and student housing investors, REITS, owners, and operators must invest in areas that support growth while keeping their rents competitive.

Our Process

Review Vendor Spend
We look at 12 months of expenses across all categories from your general ledger to give you the big picture view of your spend and identify high-potential savings areas.
Define the Scope and Roadmap
Decide which expenses you want to tackle first. We meet with internal stakeholders in each expense category to gather additional details and data and obtain authorization letters permitting us to work directly with your vendors.
Analyze, Negotiate, and Present the Opportunity
We thoroughly audit your spend, invoices, and contract terms and conditions, uncovering every area for savings and optimization with existing vendors and services. Upon request, we can also look at sourcing alternate vendors. You review the full scope of opportunities and decide which to approve and implement.
Implement Savings Strategies
We put new contracts and rates into effect and provide your internal teams with documentation of all new pricing agreements, terms, and conditions. When you save, we share a portion of the savings, so there are no upfront costs and no risks to you.
Validate Savings and Ensure Contract Compliance
We partner with you throughout the scope of your new contracts and service agreements to keep vendors in compliance, validate savings, and ensure you are receiving all negotiated services. We proactively look for new or additional savings opportunities to ensure best-in-market rates for the long term.
