During the customer lifecycle there are certain critical experiences:  leasing, move-in, resident service requests, renewal, and move-out. Here's an example of drivers during move-in:

  • Apartment readiness (clean, appliances hooked up)
  • Office staff is available
  • Eliminate mistakes (missing keys, lease errors)
  • Preventing errors in move-in experience.

They have an interesting system to track NPS in parallel with their org chart -- regional EVPs, VP, etc. are compared against each other.
