Real Estate Investors
As an investor in multifamily communities and/or mobile home parks, your primary goal, after offering a safe community, is to increase the value of your properties. And with managing water utilities being a significant component of running your properties, reducing water costs, especially those associated with infrastructure water loss and billing, can have a huge impact on value. That’s where Metron comes in.
Streamlined Billing
Utilizing the Verizon® Cellular Network, Metron’s hardware and software work seamlessly to gather water usage data for each pad or unit and present it in an easily understood format for both your park managers and your customers. We then maintain flexible integration from our software platform, WaterScope®, to most major billing systems that allows water data to flow freely. This integration enables your team to bill tenants quickly, easily, and accurately. No more manual meter reads, no more data entry. Just reduced administrative costs.
Fewer Leaks = Recaptured Water Revenue
It’s a simple calculation: what the utility says they sent your property (which may well be from one of our meters) minus what was consumed by tenants and other sources such as irrigation. The difference is the money that’s leaking into the ground. Utilizing Metron’s system, you can identify where leaks are occurring, quickly fix them and immediately start saving money. Plus, the improved infrastructure will directly translate to higher property value.
Low Risk Investment
Your business is managing properties, not water. That’s why Metron simplifies water for you by offering our technology as a service. We own and maintain the equipment for a small monthly fee, and you reap the rewards. No replacement costs or warranties to worry about.
No Need to Replace Existing Meters
If you already have meters or submeters on your property, Metron can install Prism monitors that convert your existing meters to cellular smart meters. We simply strap a Prism on your existing meters, and you can recognize the benefits of streamlined billing and leak detection without replacing anything. It doesn’t get any easier than that.
ESG Data at our Fingertips
With the growing importance of water sustainability, many investment groups today are interested in, or are required to, publish comprehensive sustainability metrics. By utilizing Metron’s data platform, WaterScope, gathering, understanding, and visualizing water-related ESG metrics is a breeze.
