A recent IBISWorld report also pointed to an expected decrease in revenue for the larger apartment rental industry through 2021, but it’s not time to hit the panic button just yet. There are, in fact, a multitude of ways by which landlords and property managers can make their businesses steadier, more profitable and more beneficial to tenants — as well as to themselves.
