Renters, particularly those from younger generations, want easy access, strong security and transparency.

When it time comes to buy, those same renters look for the same features in their dream homes.

Gen Z, which will soon account for 30 percent of the workforce, expects technology to be built into their everyday lives.

This generation wants a clear breakdown of costs, is serious about security and expects to understand what technology is in place. A reliance on speed is a key characteristic of Gen Z renters/buyers.

Youngers renters prioritize digital credentials and app-based interactions, easy entrance access for their buildings, visible security and easy-to-log access issues.

Younger multifamily residents are serious about seamless access, security and transparency. They want to know how data is used, who is allowed to enter a space and what controls are in place for a property’s visitors and deliveries.
