Maravedis Research has released the second edition of its Multifamily Rental Connectivity Market Analysis 2026–2031, projecting that the MSP total addressable market will grow from $8.9 billion in 2025 to $13.7 billion by 2031. The 130-page report—based on MSP interviews, property owner surveys, and proprietary data—covers market projections, competitive intelligence on 20 managed service providers, and SWOT assessments of five Wi-Fi infrastructure vendors.

The report introduces the proprietary Maravedis Market Score™ (MMS), scoring MSPs across six dimensions, with Financial Strength weighted most heavily (25%) given typical 7–10 year contract terms. Zentro leads the rankings (4.40). On the vendor side, RUCKUS/Vistance Networks retains MDU leadership heading into the Wi-Fi 7 cycle, while TP-Link's proposed Commerce Department ban is flagged as the top procurement risk.

The report also flags a shifting regulatory landscape: while the FCC pulled back from a national bulk billing ban in early 2025, state-level legislation—California's AB 1414, Colorado's markup caps, and New York's Affordable Broadband Act—is creating a complex compliance environment that could dampen investment in managed connectivity
