The Community Catalyst: Value on Investment (VOI)

Beyond direct ROI, wellness programming builds a loyal, stable community—a primary driver of long-term asset value.

  • A Decisive Amenity: For 28% of renters, the absence of a gym is a "dealbreaker." A quality wellness offering removes your property from the "no" list and makes it a top contender for a large segment of the market.

  • The "Friendship Factor": Group classes are social hubs. When residents make friends, their likelihood to renew their lease nearly doubles, creating powerful community bonds and stability.

  • Increased "Switching Costs": When residents integrate a convenient, high-quality on-site gym into their lifestyle, the thought of moving and finding a comparable alternative becomes a significant deterrent, anchoring them to the property.

  • Enhanced Brand & Marketability: A vibrant wellness hub is a powerful marketing asset. It creates a "wow" factor on tours and generates positive online reviews that attract premium prospects and justify higher property valuations.
