#MAMConf14
The multifamily industry approach to
performance benchmarking is like
playing a game without keeping score
Some Rules For Keeping Score
#MAMConf14
• It must measure how well we did relative to comps
• The score must be factual – i.e. not estimated
• There can only be one score for all competitors
How Multifamily Does It Today
#MAMConf14
Requirement
Multifamily Approach
• Historical
• Asking-rent based
• Factual
• Estimated, survey-based
• Definitive
• No point of truth on
performance
Hotel Industry Shows The Way
#MAMConf14
• Benchmarks based on actual performance
• Metrics based on actual revenue – no surveys
• Single, simple set of metrics for all participants
There is no good reason why the same clarity should
not be available in the multifamily industry
External Benchmarking
The Kwelia
Health Score
#MAMConf14
External Benchmarking
Kwelia Health Score
A 0-100 Metric that shows an
apples-to-apples measure of
performance against comps.
#MAMConf14
1
We use data science to
derive a “market” price
for every unit type.
• Location
• Configuration
• Amenities
2
With property occupancy
and actual rents, we
compute a health score
for each property.
