SAN FRANCISCO, CA - Joshua Tree Conference Group, a leading producer of targeted executive educational events for the apartment industry, today announces multifamily leaders Lyric™, Airbnb™ and Niido™ will serve as title sponsors for the upcoming Flexible Rentals Investment Conference (FLEX). The conference will be held October 22-23, 2019 at the Mission Bay Conference Center in San Francisco.
The FLEX conference is the first-ever investment conference exclusively focusing on the emerging strategies, technologies and organizations committed to developing and offering innovative and flexible living options for the rental housing marketplace.
“Flexible rentals continue to evolve and gain momentum within the multifamily industry, creating new opportunities for investors, developers, owner/operators as well as the renting population,” said Steve Lefkovits, executive producer, Joshua Tree Conference Group. “We are thrilled to be working with three of the industry’s most innovative companies to deliver the highest levels of education, networking and business opportunities during this unique two-day event.”
FLEX will explore a variety of different flexible rental strategies including short-term rentals, renter initiated shared stays, lease-up period lodging, and master leasing, which create incremental income for renters and multifamily property developers and owners. As the landscape has changed and matured, early pioneers continue to benefit from increasing yields, while enhancing the living options for various members of the community.
We’re excited to partner with the team at Joshua Tree Conference Group to be a title sponsor of the inaugural FLEX Conference. This will be the first event dedicated to short-term rentals in the multifamily industry, and a must-do for real estate professionals looking to understand how they can take advantage of the growing demand for this new type of flexible supply to amplify their portfolio and delight their long-term residents,” said Joe Fraiman, co-founder and President, Lyric.
Speakers, panelists and presenters will include a mix of global experts on short-stay hospitality, apartment development and ownership, capital markets, design and customer experience. Educational sessions will span topics including pricing and revenue management, in-unit technology, risk and reputation management, community and governmental relations, debt financing and capital market options, innovation investment and creating positive guest experiences.
“The multifamily rental model is changing in a good way,” said Harvey Hernandez of NGD Homesharing (Niido and Natiivo). “We are on the brink of new solutions, technologies and innovations that not only deliver modern day solutions to residents, but also increased value to portfolio owners and investors. As a title sponsor of the FLEX Conference, we’re excited to amplify the conversation around flexible rentals, from generating revenue and streamlining operations to improving the resident experience.”
