In this episode of Multifamily X Podcasts - Masters of Maintenance, we dive deep into the challenges of multifamily maintenance and the key changes needed to fix the system with Mark Sharp, CAMT. ???????????? ?????? ???????? ???????????????????? ????????: https://lnkd.in/e9u9Yvti With over 25 years of experience in the industry, he breaks down: ?? Why retention rates are plummeting – Overworked teams with little support or training. ?? How outdated training programs fail – Focusing on certifications over practical skills. ?? The role of AI & technology – A tool, not a replacement, for hands-on learning. Retention starts with maintenance. Residents stay because their experience is seamless, not because of marketing. A well-trained maintenance team can be the difference between a renewal and a vacancy. ???????? ?????????? ???? ????????????? ?? Shift the perception – Maintenance is service, not just repairs. ?? Invest in real training – Hands-on, short, and relevant. ?? Develop soft skills – Communication matters as much as technical ability.
