Resident-Centric Property Management: A New Paradigm
In recent years, there has been a significant push for multifamily homes, prioritizing the living experience of residents.

Recent studies show that a majority of renters prefer digital touchpoints of communication such as text or chat with managers.

Talking about the importance of using technology to enhance the resident experience, OneWall Communities co-founder Ron Kutas said, “By integrating smart home systems, resident portals, and community engagement initiatives, we can create vibrant, dynamic living environments that meet the evolving needs of our residents,” Kutas explains.
Kutas further shared some of the key trends and insights that can improve the renters’ experience.

Kutas emphasizes that this philosophy is built on transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement. “Our resident-centric model is a win-win. When residents are happy and engaged, the entire community thrives,” he added. “Features like smart home systems, resident portals, and community engagement events can build a more connected and supportive environment for residents.”
The resident-centric approach that Kutas speaks of, aligns well with the OneWall Communities’ vision, which is “to deliver the best home experience possible for every resident, while striving to positively impact every person and community we touch. Our culture is fun and inspiring, and provides growth, opportunity and balance.”
