The other three vital services, of course, are electricity, water and gas. “It is as essential as hot running water,” adds Sandy Jack, vice president of strategic relations, multifamily, at Vingcard and Nomadix, two brands that fall under parent company ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions.

by Lynn Peisner March 30, 2026

By Ari Pearl Branded luxury in the South Florida multifamily market has moved from fad to fundamental.

Bentley, Fendi and Armani also have lent their name to multifamily development through various partnerships. Today, premium multifamily renters will pay for a …

Fair Housing Basics for Owners: Handling Accommodation and Modification Requests

by Lynn Peisner March 16, 2026

By Tessa Castner and Grace Kuntz Most multifamily owners and managers are aware that discrimination against disabled tenants can result in litigation and increase a project’s operating expenses, which could make the difference between turning a profit and having to write a check to cover operating deficits.
