Unloc is featured in the PropTech Denmark guide - but for what reason? 🤔 Key-related issues such as lost keys, in-person handovers, and access delays incur significant costs for companies worldwide. However, our solutions have notably benefited companies managing keys in-house, such as:👇 - Reduced global vacant property duration by an average of 2.5 days. - Achieved €406,000 in yearly savings, delivering a +23% ROI. - Cut annual OPEX by 34% through reduced hardware costs, fewer contractor invoices, and less petrol used. - Trimmed monthly team mileage by 500 miles, resulting in an annual 1.6 tCO2e reduction. These benefits arise from retrofitting properties for mobile key compatibility, a cost-effective alternative to investing in new hardware. Recently, we saved €450,000 using this approach for a customer, and we believe we can do the same for many more! #thefutureiskeyless

Dive into the main insights gathered at PropTech Connect conference, as captured by Anca Stefanescu: 🌍 Making Data Actionable: Connecting Sustainability to Business Outcomes Sustainability is an imperative. Data challenges abound, but we're getting there. Now, the key question shifted to: 💡 How to make sustainability initiatives truly actionable and connect them to real, measurable business outcomes. At Alasco, we've seen firsthand the power of integrating ESG with CapEx Management to drive value. 💼 Here’s how we connect ESG to key financial metrics: 🔗 1. Linking Sustainability to Preserved or Increased Valuation:   Properties with strong ESG ratings attract more investors and command higher prices. By making CapEx decisions (and Green CapEx) data-driven, we help businesses safeguard their portfolios' long-term value. 💰 2. Impact on Revenues:  Tenants are looking for sustainable spaces. These spaces routinely command premium rents. CapEx investments into renewable energy, insulation or better heating systems improve not only the building's ESG score but also its attractiveness. 📉 3. Controlling Expenses:   Reducing energy consumption, cutting water usage, and optimizing waste management directly reduce operating expenses. When you track ESG data alongside financial data, you can see how a single CapEx investment reduces long-term OpEx, making sustainability projects a clear win. 📊 4. Boosting Net Operating Income (NOI):   When revenues increase and expenses decrease, the result is a significant boost in NOI. Alasco’s platform allows you to track the financial impact of each sustainability initiative—creating a clear line between your ESG efforts and improved financial performance. Ultimately, integrating ESG into CapEx management transforms sustainability from a cost center into a strategic business asset. With actionable data, ESG becomes a growth driver. #ESG #CapEx #Sustainability #RealEstate #NetOperatingIncome #DataDriven #Profitability #FinancialPlanning
