Smart apartment technology, also known as PropTech, provides opportunities to improve operations and profitability for property owners. There are multiple ways to leverage technology to increase a property’s value and NOI. Kyle Finney joined the business development team at Arize to bring emerging technology to real estate.
Kyle has worked alongside commercial real estate professionals in both Phoenix and Las Vegas, heading up initiatives for gaining insight, adopting new tech, and carrying out marketing and sales strategies aimed at helping companies stand out while increasing revenue and attracting & retaining tenants.
One of the questions for investors is will renters pay for smart technology? Amenities and services like smart locks, lighting, and thermostats have the ability to improve a resident’s experience. In addition, water leak detectors protect owners from unnecessary costs. Kyle is seeing smart technology adding an additional $30-60 per month per unit.

Bullseye Round:
Apparent Failure: I launched my first business when I was 18, determined to do everything myself. That didn’t work out so well, but it taught me the importance of working and surrounding myself with smart, like-minded people.
