Challenges
“The holy grail that I'd like to have in an asset management world is a dashboard that has all metrics of an asset in one centralized spot, and VTS is one of the tools that's helping us get there.”
Why VTS?
“I got so used to using VTS in my daily routine, that it became part of how I operated - so coming to Metro National, a company that did not have VTS, I felt like I was missing something. And that was one of the first things I wanted to tackle coming in to lead the asset management team here, was a better way to increase transparency, and gain greater efficiency in all the processes from the lease, start to finish.”
Results
“Having VTS Lease data allows us to gain insights to specific real-time data sets vs. comps that may be 3-6 months old -- we can actually make decisions across our portfolio in terms of negotiations with prospects, sizing spec suites, and be actionable in real-time where the demand is.”
