The Levels of Property Autonomy
Which level is your portfolio?
A six-stage framework for how buildings run, from issues that surface only when a tenant complains to a portfolio that self-optimizes against your business objectives. Most commercial real estate organizations sit between Level 0 and Level 1 today. HqO delivers Level 3.

Why we publish it
Autonomous, and still under your direction.
"Autonomous" is an easy word to overclaim. We'd rather show exactly where HqO is today, and where the industry is going. At Level 3, REX proposes and executes routine work only after approval, so your properties run more autonomously without your team ceding control.
