Oriente of PowerHour®, for a another exciting segment of the MultifamilyBiz + PowerHour Webcast Series. This episode explores the structural shift redefining multifamily as technology moves from supporting staff to becoming the operating layer itself. Kerry and Ernest unpack how automation has evolved into a risk and compliance engine, while discovery platforms, AI-powered search, and zero-touch journeys are rewriting the renter experience—turning websites into transaction engines that compress the leasing cycle from search to signed lease.

1. The Operating Model Is Being Rewritten
   2026 marks the shift from staff-supported technology to technology-supported staff. Autonomous systems begin executing marketing, leasing, compliance, and resident workflows as a continuous operating layer.

2. AI Becomes Labor, Not Software
   AI co-workers move from experimentation to infrastructure — handling conversations, verifications, lease execution, pricing distribution, and reputation engagement in real time, at scale, without human handoffs.

3. Automation Evolves into a Risk and Compliance Engine
   The next generation of PropTech is built around compliance protection, enforcing accessibility, identity trust, fee transparency, data governance, and regulatory alignment automatically across every community.

4. The Search-to-Sofa Experience Gets Rewritten
   Discovery engines, AI search, and zero-touch journeys redefine how renters find and transact with communities — turning websites into valuable assets in the marketing stack to compressing the leasing cycle.
