Welcome to our online community! The purpose of this site is to discuss new and emerging trends within the multifamily industry, in particular the emergence of Web 2.0 concepts such as social media and its effects on our industry.
Your residents, and the prospects you are targeting, are a lot different than they were in the past. How are you adapting to this change? New online social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace have revolutionized the way people interact with each other and gather information. This information could be about the local area, jobs, or even great places to live. These new social media tools, and others like them, which require and thrive on the input of users, are commonly referred to as Web 2.0 platforms.
Web 2.0 is not a new version of the Web, but rather, as the realization of the Web's potential...it's second coming so to speak.
So in the spirit of things please join our online community and you are strongly encouraged to add feedback, photos, video, and start discussion topics on things that are relevant to you and our industry as a whole. Enjoy!
