Our Leasing & Collections team has been putting in an immense amount of effort this quarter that culminated in record-breaking accomplishments at several AFI assets.

Over the trailing three months, 11 AFI properties achieved new T-3 Top Line Income Records! These new records equated to over $20,000 in additional income for 2019 versus 2018.

This in itself would have been a tremendous accomplishment; however, we did not stop there. In addition to setting 11 new T-3 Income Records, another six (6) assets achieved new Monthly Income Records for May!

This was not done overnight and was accomplished through the development of robust procedures by our L&C team, and flawless execution by our Onsite Staff.

We look forward to developing new/improving upon current processes in order to replicate this kind of success as our portfolio continues to grow!

A Texas-based asset managed by AFI, LLC recently received glowing accolades during a quarterly insurance inspection.

We at AFI pride ourselves on being able to provide clean, safe, and friendly communities to residents and visitors alike. This kind of welcoming environment was exactly what awaited our insurance inspector when he arrived to the property.

Our onsite team deserves a great deal of praise for ensuring such a wonderful visit, and continuing to uphold the AFI Standard of Excellence!

This week, AFI was recognized as one of very few companies to achieve 100% Grace Hill compliance across all learners!

Grace Hill is an industry leading Property Management training platform that specializes in educating employees on topics such as changes in federal law, leasing/marketing strategies, and even property maintenance items.

It is a requirement for all AFI Corporate, and Onsite Staff to maintain 100% Grace Hill compliance at all times. The importance of this training cannot be stressed enough as keeping up to date with assigned courses allows all of our team members to not only improve his or her own skills, but also understand how to follow ever-changing government regulations.

Through AFI’s management, we have successfully reduced 911 traffic at a North Carolina based asset by 40% over the last three years!
