See What Pet Ownership Could Be Worth At Your Community

Owners already house the customer. They simply do not own the transaction. Live Work Pet converts existing resident pet spend into recurring property revenue — a new line of multifamily ancillary revenue that compounds into stronger retention and durable NOI growth.

Asset Value Creation

At a 5.5% cap rate, $30,327 in additional NOI translates to approximately $551,000 in asset value creation.

Recurring ancillary revenue capitalizes directly into the asset. Pet monetization is one of the highest-ROI NOI levers available to owners today — with no CapEx required.
