About this listen
Join Kerry W. Kirby and Jimmy Lancaster, the masterminds behind the Multifamily Tech Gurus Podcast Series, as they challenge one of the most common misconceptions in multifamily technology—that automation is primarily about speed and efficiency. In today's regulatory environment, automation has become something far more critical: a safeguard against risk, inconsistency, and exposure at scale.
In this episode, Kerry and Jimmy unpack how manual and assisted workflows introduce human variability, leading to missed disclosures, inconsistent execution, and compliance gaps that compound across portfolios. They explain why training alone cannot protect operators from risk, and how compliance must be engineered directly into workflows to ensure required steps are completed correctly, every time.
Kerry and Jimmy's Words of Wisdom: "Automation isn't about doing the same work faster—it's about removing the risk that comes with human inconsistency. At scale, efficiency might save time, but engineered automation protects the business by ensuring compliance every time. When workflows are built to execute, verify, and document automatically, operators don't just move faster—they operate with defensibility, consistency, and confidence, even as portfolios grow."
