Trusted Buildings

Trusted Buildings

Going forward, trust will be the most important factor for building occupants. Having a “smart” building will be meaningless if the people don’t trust that this intelligence is being used with their best interests in mind. It’s also critical that the building truly enables a sense of purpose within the space.

 

Deep trust with occupants will require a commitment that doesn’t stop at the building entrance. The connection should reach deeper into the tenancy as a means to promote the stickiness of lease renewals, no matter the circumstance.

 

Successful real estate organizations will centralize trust into their business strategies and establish an occupant-centric approach to building management that enables them to extrapolate data to understand how occupants use and interact within a building.
