Energy advice and strategy for multifamily properties

Resident turnover creates ongoing energy service tasks. Your team needs to know which meters are associated with vacant units, coordinate account changes, and keep track of the electricity purchased for common areas. Across multiple properties, those responsibilities involve different utility and supplier arrangements.

5 helps owners and managers organize those arrangements, review common-area purchasing options, and improve visibility into vacant and occupied meters. We also support tenant enrollment transactions and sustainability planning across your properties.

How we help

  • Vacant meter agreements: Help establish Continuing Service Agreements (CSAs) for eligible vacant units based on supplier and utility requirements.

  • Tenant enrollment support: Assist with transactions for enrolling new tenants and review available marketing fee arrangements.

  • Meter reporting: Provide visibility into vacant and occupied meters to help your team track accounts and identify changes that need attention.

  • Common-area energy purchasing: Evaluate purchasing options for common-area meters based on usage, contract terms, and market conditions.

  • Service transactions: Help coordinate energy account changes as residents move in and out.

  • Sustainability: Help develop, implement, and communicate an ESG strategy that reflects your portfolio’s goals and available energy options.
