National Best Places to Work Multifamily®: 2023 Official Ranking Announced

Multifamily Leadership has announced the official ranking for the National Best Places to Work Multifamily® for 2023

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.Dec. 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Multifamily Leadership announced the official ranking for the 2023 Best Places to Work Multifamily® Program. Listmakers found out how they ranked at the Multifamily Innovation® Summit in Phoenix, AZ featuring the Multifamily Innovation® Showcase, remarks from top CEOs and Executives, red carpet photos, high-energy music, and an incredible evening of celebration.

In addition to attendees from the ranking top multifamily companies, there were hundreds of multifamily owners and operators who attended to better understand what these organizations are doing in order to have received this honored designation.

The Multifamily Industry, serving apartments and their residents, contributes more than $3.4 trillion to the economy annually, supporting more than 17.5 million jobs. Not only do apartment homes drive jobs that strengthen local communities, individuals and families also realize the value of renting as a smart choice in today’s economy.

As CEOs and executive teams create culture and innovation around the resident experience, employee engagement is seen as a key driver to meet multiple challenges. The Best Places to Work Multifamily® program recognizes those companies that have established and consistently fostered outstanding workplace environments often acknowledging that employees can be a company’s strongest and most valuable asset.

The rigorous assessment process evaluated each company’s employee policies and procedures as well as responses from the company’s employees. The program is part of a long-term initiative to encourage growth and excellence throughout the Multifamily Apartment Industry and to attract new leaders to the industry.

Patrick Antrim, Founder and CEO of Multifamily Leadership says, “If you want to know if it’s a great place to work, you ask the people who work there. Next-generation leaders want to know their company is making a positive impact on the world. They want to know the vision and mission of the organization and that the leaders of the organization are going to drive that mission and vision.”

The program also helps companies who want to improve their business. Whether or not they make the list, an “Insights Report” is presented to each participating company. This report summarizes employee engagement and satisfaction data, the “Multifamily Leadership Benchmark Report,” and the transcript of employee written comments. It is then used by many organizations to make significant improvements in their workplace culture.

The business environment of the 21st century is characterized not just by competition and ever-increasing technologies, but also by a heightened appreciation for the quality of the workplace. In a world of continuously shrinking margins and challenges attracting a next-generation workforce, a progressive leadership strategy is critical to creating and sustaining a competitive advantage. One measure of such strategies is the quality of the workplace experience. Indeed, the enhanced awareness of the importance of creating great workplaces is evidenced by the growing body of literature regarding workplace excellence.

Why Your Properties are Unprepared for EV Charging

Multifamily-Insights-Header

Do you think your properties are ready for EVs? Maybe you think you’re ahead of the curve because you’ve added a charging station or two to your property. That’s where you’re mistaken.

Some estimates show that by 2030, over half your lot could be full with electric vehicles

Consider that many properties have outdated electrical grids that can’t support charging stations, or only one or two. That could be an unexpected and expensive construction project to upgrade when you need more chargers.

When a property adds EV charging stations, they normally go to a manufacturer, order a station or two, pay someone to install it, then ignore it. The station is supposedly an amenity that’s doing its job by existing, like a swimming pool or tennis court. There are clear issues with this implementation strategy. 

multifamily-innovation-insights-evcharging

Bringing EV Charging to a Property

Multifamily properties are racing to implement charging stations for electric vehicles to meet the increased demand. They’re running into issues with vendors who don’t understand multifamily, onsite staff who have never handled EV charging, and often aren’t preparing for a growing future with more and more electric vehicles. 

When planning to service the property with a manufacturer, the representative for the property is often the property manager, who is also unlikely to be familiar with electric vehicle charging and the best practices for managing it. That puts the property manager in the expert’s seat.

Here’s a few questions that the property manager will need to answer: 

  • Which types of chargers should be used?
  • Should the property own & manage the equipment themselves or hire a 3rd party?
  • Should the property charge for the electricity or offer it as a free amenity?
  • If charging is free, what are the predicted additional expenses for free charging?
  • Where would be the best place(s) to add charging stations?

The answers to each of these questions can make or break the NOI gained from adding charging stations. Since every property has a distinct history, there is no “one-size-fits-all” solution. If the property manager isn’t prepared to answer these questions, the non-expert manufacturer will answer the questions for them.

multifamily-innovation-insights-evcharging

Properties should have an expert multifamily EV charging consultant to prepare for the installation and future management of any chargers. They’re able to take industry knowledge from both sides and use that to make properties more profitable. 


Thinking Long Term

As ESG laws and guidelines develop, as electric vehicles become more popular, what properties need to be equipped with will continue to change. Some state and local governments are developing requirements for a minimum number of charging stations on properties.

When these factors hit, one station with two plugs might not be enough for your property.

By thinking longer term, you can future-proof your property and improve your NOI. Will you have enough chargers for the next 5-10 years? Should you own and manage the chargers or hire a 3rd party? How can you encourage residents to use them?

Like with any product, it’s important to talk to an expert on how it will work in multifamily.

Our client, Refuel EV Solutions, helps properties get electric vehicle charging set up on multifamily properties effectively. They know the ins and outs of EV charging for apartments, from the technology to the installation.

Most property managers aren’t prepared to handle EV charging alone. Make sure they have the right partner to work with.

Patrick Antrim is the CEO of Multifamily Leadership, Chairman of the Multifamily Innovation® Advisory Council Multifamily and Strategic Multifamily Advisor.
