Transitioning Utility Expenses to Increase NOI

One of the fastest, least expensive ways to increase cash flow, improve the value of your multifamily property, and reduce utility expenses is to implement a utility billing program. By separating utilities from the rental fees, you are more likely to recoup these expenses and encourage residents to conserve.

AmCoBi's utility billing services not only boost profitability and increase property cap rates, they expand payment and billing options for your residents.

AmCoBi provides a brilliant way for apartment owners to maximize their control of utility costs (and reimbursements) with the added benefit of creating value on the sale of a property.
