The Future of PropTech in Multifamily: What Operators Need to Know Heading Into 2026

If there’s one word I’d use to describe the current state of proptech in multifamily, it’s this: cautious.
We are surrounded by technology. New platforms, new tools, new promises. And yet, adoption across the industry is still slower than many people expected. That doesn’t mean operators aren’t interested. It means they’re being thoughtful. They’re asking the right questions. And frankly, they’re navigating a lot of noise.
As we look toward 2026, I believe the future of proptech in multifamily will be defined less by flashy new tools and more by clarity, consolidation, infrastructure, and long-term flexibility. This is not about chasing trends. It’s about building a foundation that allows properties to adapt, scale, and deliver real value to both staff and residents.

How Third Party Delivery Drivers Use Smart Lockers

Third party delivery has become a permanent fixture in both retail and quick-service restaurants. As delivery volumes increase and customer expectations tighten, operations leaders are rethinking not just how orders are fulfilled, but how they are handed off. One of the most overlooked friction points in this process is the delivery driver pickup experience.
Smart lockers, originally designed for customer pickup, are increasingly being used as a reliable handoff point for third party delivery drivers. When implemented as part of a BOPIS strategy, smart lockers simplify pickup, reduce in-store congestion, and create a faster, more predictable workflow for everyone involved.

How To Write A Proposal To Get Smart Lockers Approved For Your Community

Getting smart lockers approved often has less to do with the technology itself and more to do with how the proposal is framed. Ownership groups, asset managers, and regional leaders are not looking for another amenity request. They are evaluating investments based on operational impact, cost control, and long-term value.
This guide walks through exactly how to write a proposal that speaks their language and positions smart lockers as a strategic improvement, not a nice-to-have.

Package Rooms vs. Package Lockers: Which Is Better?

Finding the best package management systems for multifamily communities often comes down to one key question: package rooms vs. package lockers. Both solutions help properties handle rising delivery volumes, reduce staff workload, and improve the resident experience, but each one serves a different operational need.
The right choice depends on your building style, delivery patterns, available space, and long term goals. This guide breaks down the differences, benefits, and limitations of each option to help you make an informed decision.

The Upgrades That Actually Make Renters Happier

When you strip away the fancy brochures and amenity checklists, most residents are asking one simple question:
“Does living here actually make my life easier and happier?”
The upgrades that make residents happier are not always the flashiest. In 2025, renters consistently gravitate toward improvements that protect their time, reduce friction in daily life, and make them feel safe, supported, and understood.
Recent renter surveys show a clear pattern. Tech-enabled conveniences, smart design, and practical comfort often outperform luxury features in driving satisfaction.
Here is what truly matters to residents and where smart package lockers naturally fit into the story.
