Green living is something that has quickly gone from a recommendation to a requirement in most multifamily communities. Renters are becoming more aware of the benefits of sustainability, especially with the climate crisis. Many people are looking to rent a place with a green initiative.
In a survey of 2,800 residents taken by AMLI’s Sustainable Living Index, 84% say living in a green home is more important to them and 85% say it is beneficial to their long-term health. Some key element that should be offered in communities that want to go green include:
- Energy-efficient lighting
- Recycling programs
- Bike storage
- Premium air filters
- Electrical Vehicle charging stations
