Impact Optimization
To achieve the impact we envision, our approach – which we call “Impact Optimization” – focuses on three key categories that empower effective implementation of environmental and social initiatives.
-
Enriched Living Program
A suite of services provided to residents of each property, focusing on:
• Physical health
• Health and wellness
• Financial and educational health -
Environmental sustainability
A third-party energy audit to be completed for each property. Recommendations of sustainable retrofitting to be discussed with acquisition partners to implement, as feasible.
-
