Whether you're an industry professional or a tech enthusiast, this podcast series offers a rare glimpse into the minds of two thought leaders shaping the future of multifamily housing.
Join Kerry W. Kirby and Jimmy Lancaster, the masterminds behind the Multifamily Tech Gurus Podcast Series, as they explore how advanced technologies like artificial intelligence and digital identity verification revolutionize how multifamily housing operators screen prospective renters. Traditional vetting methods, often slow, manual, and prone to fraud, are being replaced by faster, smarter, and more secure solutions that improve accuracy and enhance the overall leasing experience.
In this episode, Kerry and Jimmy break down the latest innovations transforming the renter screening process — from AI-driven fraud detection that flags suspicious patterns in real time, to advanced document authentication tools that verify IDs with precision, to emerging technologies like biometric verification and predictive risk modeling. They dive into how these solutions streamline leasing workflows, reducing manual errors, and giving property teams the confidence to make faster, more informed decisions.
Kerry and Jimmy’s Words of Wisdom: “In today’s world, identity can be faked in seconds, but with AI and advanced verification tools, we can spot the fakes just as fast. This technology is more than just streamlining the leasing process, it’s transforming how we protect our communities, reduce risk, and make confident, data-driven decisions. It’s about staying one step ahead of the bad actors while creating a safer, faster, and more seamless experience for operators and renters alike.”
