It was a huge eye-opener for us when we instituted [flexible payments] back in the fall. Our outstanding accounts dropped dramatically just by offering that flexibility to our residents… there’s certainly a need for this everywhere as an option.

The biggest impact for us is when technology eliminates manual steps for our onsite teams. If we can remove the burden of remembering to perform redundant tasks like collecting documents, that’s a win.

In today’s market, people could care less what our policies and rules are. They care about how they feel. The resident is king.
