CLASS Leasing: Can You Hear Me Now?



I came across a great article in Multifamily Executive that really shows how reliant individuals are becoming on one certain aspect of technology...the all mighty cell phone. Due to the dwindling number of people that actually have a landline phone in their apartments, apartment owners and developers are actually having to implement new cell phone towers, or enhancers to existing towers, in order to keep residents, especially college-aged residents, pleased with living at these communities. In fact, cell phone signal ranks second in importance in a recent survey of 52,000 college students only behind the desire for larger bedroom size! Interested in seeing what the word on the web was about cell phone signal problems in apartments, I came to the realization how rampant of a problem this actually is by simply typing "apartment cell phone signal" into Google. Every single search result, minus a few, were postings by consumers asking how to improve their cell phone signal at their apartment. As the endless realm of what one is able to do with a cell phone continues to expand, the demand for cell phone signal strength as almost an amenity will only continue to increase.

Enjoy!
