Most multifamily asset managers are still assembling reports.
Colin Green built software to eliminate that step entirely.
Colin is the founder of BubbleGum BI, a business intelligence platform designed specifically for multifamily asset managers. Before launching it, he built the tool for himself - nights and weekends - to solve the frustration of pulling rent rolls, cleaning spreadsheets, and waiting on Monday Morning Reports.
The result is a real-time operating layer.
In our conversation, Colin answers five important questions for serious CRE operators: How do you measure renovation spreads accurately at the unit level? Where does AI realistically fit into asset management workflows today? How should retention be monitored before it hits the income statement? Can you benchmark management companies across markets objectively? What happens when occupancy, renewals, and comp data refresh daily instead of weekly? One of his more pointed observations: "It's not good using old data. I don't understand how we can make decisions for the future with data that's a week or a month old."
The interesting part is that AI is not the headline. Clean data is.
Colin's longer-term vision includes AI agents flagging risks, pricing mismatches, and renewal exposure daily. But he is clear that the foundation has to be structured, integrated data first.
If you oversee multiple assets and still rely on static reporting packages, this episode is worth your time.
It's what operational clarity looks like when reporting friction disappears.

More from AI for Real Estate
Most CRE sponsors treat AI as a collection of separate tools but the firms pulling ahead are building something fundamentally different: a single integrated stack where every layer of the operation, from deal sourcing to asset management, feeds the same system.
Most commercial real estate firms believe AI will transform their business. Only 9% have done anything about it. That is not a technology problem. It is a workflow problem - and no one is asking the right question to close the gap.
Most CRE firms say they're using AI. What they mean is someone has a ChatGPT tab open.
CRE brokerages have spent tens of thousands configuring Salesforce. Nobody uses it. The data is stale, the pipeline is fiction, and the analyst is entering last week's emails at 8pm to stay compliant.
Most development firms are competing over 1.5% of US land.
