July Round Up
Highlight
In case you missed it! 🏆 The Preiss Company x IRIS Technologies were named a 2025 Digie Award Winner at RealComm | IBcon for Best Use of Automation!
Together, we're pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in housing by enhancing operations and elevating resident experiences through cutting-edge automation solutions.
From streamlining property management to piloting humanoid robots, innovation is at the heart of everything we do.
Grateful for the recognition and excited to keep raising the bar. 🚀
Spotlight
We received our Q2 Secret Shop Results from Black Sheep, and we wanted to recognize those who scored 90% and above! These results show that you all are going above and beyond to deliver exceptional service and experiences for our future residents, and we greatly appreciate you all for that!
We also wanted to include the portfolio average and the top 5 scores. We're hoping this provides some frame of reference for you all to see where we stand as a portfolio, and how your property might fit into that average.
Century Club
Please welcome these properties into the 2025 TPCO Century Club! Congratulations to these properties for reaching 100% pre-leased!

Flats Team - We’re soooo close to hitting budget!!

To be at 70%+ prelease, delinquency as low as it’s ever been, and to have the pool open, were momentous! I could not have/we could not have done it without you each and every one of you! Shout out Tifani, Lauren, Anna, Sarah, Daniel, Clayton and Sam!
I also want to give a shout out to Mike Pignataro! Your patience, guidance, and time is so appreciated from us! You are such a big help and you have made more impact than you know! Matt Guzman as well, thank you for everything and for helping with the occasional Duke Energy/Spectrum Crash outs!

Your hard work does not go unnoticed!
Also shout out to Tiffany Woodard for her adaptability in completing the many (many) tasks I’ve thrown at her over the last few weeks, while also taking summer classes virtually and being away from her family. You have been a tremendous help and I truly can’t thank you enough! ”
