A Maravedis Research Report Initiative covering the telecom and PropTech strategies of the 50 largest US multifamily property owners across every multifamily sub-segment.
Report Overview
The Top 50 US Property Owners report delivers a definitive, owner-by-owner view of how America's largest multifamily operators approach connectivity infrastructure and PropTech investment. Drawing on the NMHC 2025 Top 50 Owners ranking, the study examines how each firm handles bulk internet, managed Wi-Fi, vendor selection, smart building integration, and resident-facing technology across market-rate, affordable, student, senior, military, and build-to-rent portfolios. The report is built from primary interviews with owner technology leaders, portfolio disclosures, Yardi Matrix data, and Maravedis's proprietary vendor-relationship intelligence.
