?? Have you heard the news? ?? We have released our inaugural BENCHMARK guide on high-rise operating costs and budgets. This comprehensive report helps community association boards, developers, property managers, and owners of high-rise properties make informed decisions about their operations and budget strategies. The data was compiled from communities in our managed portfolio of 3,800 high-rise buildings across major urban areas in the United States and Canada. This encompasses a range of residential communities, including condominiums, cooperatives, and corporations — both long-standing associations and those newly developed. Want to see the full report?
