Thinking a little bit more about the healthy piece of healthy, wealthy and wise.

Tosha chimed in yesterday with a comment that spoke to fitbit – A wearable technology that tracks vital statistics about one’s health and welfare.

It made me think that we should give one to every person that moves in and or renews at one of our Mills communities in 2014.

Mike Whaling carried it a step further by suggesting that we could create competition amongst our communities. Even goes going so far as to creative a leaderboard on our website. He suggested the hashtag #LetsMove STL I love it!

All of that made me think that we could create a movement across America. One property management company at a time. One property at a time. We could pit companies of like unit count against one another. We could pit cities of like sized population/multifamily unit count against one another. And we could pit property management company employees against one another. It would compelling and inspirational. Think of the amazing stories that would be born out of such an effort.

I’m not a detail oriented guy however I have to believe there is an amazing competition that can be created in all of this. And all under the premise of good health.

Your, loving this idea, Multifamily Maniac

Caught this story over at a Century 21 site. Photosynth is an iPhone app that allows you to take 360 photos and upload them right to the likes of Facebook and the such. It’s after dark now but I can’t wait to try this out tomorrow.

Get Them Involved

I can see this being a very cool app not only for our site teams but for residents and prospects alike. That is if they have an iPhone or iPad. With that note in mind, think of the possibilites;

Tour

1. 360 views of your apartment communities curb appeal

2. 360 views of your apartment business/leasing/clubhouse

3.360 views of your grounds and common areas

4. 360 views of any or all rooms in any given apartment

Maintenance

1. 360 view of move out walk for the purpose of returning paid deposits or charging for damages

Due Diligence

1. 360 view of personal property inventory

2. 360 view of apartment condition at time of purchase

What else?

1. Would be cool to have something like this integrate in to Yardi, Real Page, MRI or the such…
