How the “Gig Life” Could Translate to CRE

Anbarden: “Our understanding is the Gig Life is giving us the ability to offer high-speed Internet to individuals in their home, where they could utilize more than 100 Wi-Fi devices in the home at the same time without interference or delays.”

RANCHO MISSION VIEJO, CA—High-speed wireless connections in the home that enable incredibly fast download speeds and eliminate buffering could help dramatically increase productivity in the commercial real estate realm, Warmington Homes executives Rebecca Anbarden and Mike Demboski tell GlobeSt.com. Cox Communications and Warmington have partnered to showcase a new era in digital living using gigabit Internet service and recently held the Cox Smart Home Gigablast event at Canopy at Esencia, one of Orange County’s newest home communities here and one of several new neighborhoods within Esencia.

Esencia is the first master-planned community in Orange County to provide access to high-speed Internet—which Cox is marketing as Gigablast—at every home site in the community. Cox provides Gigablast high-speed Internet service to commercial customers throughout Orange and San Diego counties and has for a few years.
