Bring your portfolio’s energy picture into focus with 5

Every property adds a different set of energy needs to your portfolio. Apartment meters, common areas, heating systems, and building amenities all affect consumption and costs. Planning across properties means accounting for those differences alongside budgets, improvement projects, and compliance requirements.

5 helps residential owners and operators connect property-level energy decisions with portfolio priorities. From high-rise buildings to multistate holdings and REITs, our analysts and advisors review usage, rates, and contracts to support purchasing, budgeting, and long-term planning.

How we help

  • Energy budgeting: Prepare energy budgets that reflect property usage, supply contracts, and anticipated changes across your buildings.

  • Energy purchasing and risk management: Evaluate electricity, natural gas, and fuel oil purchasing strategies based on your portfolio’s consumption, contract timelines, and tolerance for price fluctuations.

  • Meter and rate verification: Review residential and commercial rate classifications for each meter to assess whether they fit the spaces and uses they serve.

  • Energy efficiency planning: Review building energy use and help prioritize potential improvements around property needs, investment plans, and operating budgets.

  • Construction and utility coordination: Help coordinate utility service, temporary power, and meter installations for new residential developments, additions, and renovation projects.

  • Compliance support: Help assess energy-related requirements and plan next steps for your properties, including support for New York City’s Climate Mobilization Act.

  • Sustainability: Help develop, implement, and communicate an ESG strategy that connects property-level energy decisions with portfolio goals.
