Traditional distribution methods often struggle to keep up with demand. Manual checkouts, limited office hours, long lines, and inconsistent tracking can create challenges for IT teams and students.

Parcel Locker Solutions for Canadian Multifamily Communities

Parcel Locker Solutions for Canadian Multifamily Communities

Canadian multifamily communities are experiencing a major shift in parcel management. As online shopping continues to grow and resident expectations rise, developers and operators are under increasing pressure to modernize how deliveries are handled.
That is why more properties are investing in parcel locker solutions that improve security, simplify parcel management, and create a better resident experience.
According to recent research from Mordor Intelligence, the Canadian courier, express, and parcel market is projected to grow to more than USD $20 billion by 2031, driven largely by continued eCommerce growth and increasing delivery demand. For multifamily operators, that means parcel volume is not slowing down anytime soon.

Resident Retention Starts With Reliable Multifamily Partners

Resident retention has become one of the most important metrics in multifamily housing and one of the hardest to maintain. Today’s residents expect convenience, consistency, and responsive service across every touchpoint of their living experience. When operations fall short, frustration builds quickly.
That’s why more property and regional managers are reevaluating not just the amenities they offer, but the multifamily technology partners behind them.
Reliable partners don’t just help properties run smoothly. They directly support resident satisfaction, operational consistency, and long-term asset value.

What Is the Best Way to Manage Packages in a University Mailroom?

University mailrooms are under more pressure than ever. As online shopping continues to grow, campuses are receiving an unprecedented volume of packages each day, often without the staffing or storage space to keep up. For many universities, the question is no longer whether a new system is needed, it’s what is the best system to use?

The Hidden Cost of Off-Site Package Models

The Hidden Cost of Off-Site Package Models

At first glance, some package management solutions seem like a win for property teams. They promise fewer packages on-site, less clutter, and less day-to-day handling.
But what looks convenient on the surface often comes with hidden tradeoffs. While these models may reduce visibility on the property, they do not eliminate the problem. They shift it somewhere else.
And in many cases, they shift it directly onto residents.

The Middleman Problem: Why More Delivery Logistics Creates More Problems

The Middleman Problem: Why More Delivery Logistics Creates More Problems

On paper, adding more steps to a delivery process can sound like progress. More coordination, more handling, and more structure.
But in reality, more logistics often leads to more problems.
This is the core issue facing today’s multifamily delivery logistics strategies. In an effort to manage growing package volume, many systems have introduced additional layers between the carrier and the resident.
And while those layers are meant to help, they often create the opposite effect.
Because every extra step is another opportunity for something to go off track.

Multifamily Tech Stack Optimization: Why Execution Matters More Than Tools

Multifamily Tech Stack Optimization: Why Execution Matters More Than Tools

When people ask me about multifamily tech stack optimization, they usually expect me to recommend a tool. Which platform is best? What AI solutions should we pilot? Are we missing any features?
But the real challenge in multifamily today is not choosing the right technology. It is executing on it. In my experience, multifamily does not have a knowledge problem. We have an execution problem. In the blog below we’ll navigate tech stack optimization and executing solutions well across your portfolio.

What Should Universities Look for in an Automated Locker System Integration?

As universities modernize campus operations, automated lockers are increasingly part of the conversation. But while the hardware often gets the spotlight, experienced decision makers know the real long term value lies in integration. That’s why institutions evaluating smart locker solutions should focus just as heavily on integration capabilities as on physical design.
So what should universities actually look for when evaluating automated locker system integrations? In this blog, we’re answering the key questions universities should ask, and how Luxer One supports those requirements.

What’s the Difference Between Electronic and Automated Lockers?

What’s the Difference Between Electronic and Automated Lockers?

If you’re researching package management solutions, you’ve likely come across both electronic lockers and automated lockers. While the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, they are not the same.
The main difference between electronic and automated lockers is connectivity and system intelligence.
Electronic lockers use digital access methods instead of traditional keys. automated lockers go further by using cloud-based software, real-time tracking, integrations, and advanced management tools to automate and optimize the entire package workflow.
For multifamily property managers and owners, that distinction matters more than ever.

Onsite vs Offsite Package Management: What Multifamily Leaders Need to Know

Onsite vs Offsite Package Management: What Multifamily Leaders Need to Know

Package volume has fundamentally reshaped multifamily operations. What used to be a convenience has become a daily operational responsibility, a resident satisfaction driver, and in some cases, a liability risk.
As properties evaluate solutions, many are weighing onsite vs offsite package management models. Both promise convenience. Both aim to reduce staff burden. But the operational realities and resident experience can look very different.
Below we discuss what you should consider before deciding.

The Rise of Build-to-Rent: What It Means for Proptech and the Future of Amenities

The Rise of Build-to-Rent: What It Means for Proptech and the Future of Amenities

Build-to-rent is no longer a niche concept. It is quickly becoming one of the most important shifts in the multifamily industry.
This is not a temporary response to interest rates or a passing housing cycle. We are watching the formation of a distinct asset class. And like any new asset class, it comes with a new operating model, new resident expectations, and new requirements for technology.
The mistake I see most often is treating build-to-rent as simply horizontal multifamily. It is not. The physical layout may resemble single-family homes, but the operational philosophy has to be entirely different.

NMHC Annual Meeting Recap: Stability, Smarter Strategy, and What Comes Next

Last month’s NMHC Annual Meeting felt different. Not louder or flashier, but steadier.
After several years of volatility (pandemic disruption, supply chain challenges, labor shifts, tariff uncertainty, and economic pressure) the tone this year was grounded. More thoughtful and strategic.
If we had to summarize this NMHC Annual Meeting recap in one word, it would be:
Hopeful.
But it wasn’t blind optimism. It was confidence built on experience. Here’s what stood out most and what it means for multifamily owners and operators heading into 2026.
