        <![CDATA[Renter financial resilience shows improvement as wage growth outpaces rent growth
RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, has released a comprehensive review of its 2025 market predictions.
The analysis shows that - while cyclical pressures such as a softening labor market have tempered recent demand - structural drivers remain strong. This includes favorable demographics and ongoing affordability challenges in the single-family market that will continue to support long-term rental housing demand.
The review highlights that while the supply wave was the dominant theme of 2024 and 2025, the market is shifting toward a new dynamic. Data indicates that despite the influx of approximately 500,000 new units delivered in 2025, strong wage growth and cooling inflation have supported robust absorption. However, RealPage sees an undersupply challenge beginning to reemerge as early as late 2026, given that new starts activity has fallen to its lowest level since 2012 due to elevated interest rates and construction financing challenges.
"Our analysis shows that the multifamily sector is behaving exactly as fundamental economics would predict," said Carl Whitaker, chief economist at RealPage. "High-supply markets are experiencing continued rent contraction with deep concessions being offered to help absorb saturated lease-up inventories. Meanwhile, lower-supply regions continue to trend ahead of the national average, with limited slack in available units. While 2025 delivered another significant block of new inventory, the development pipeline has declined at its fastest pace in well-over a decade. By late 2026, the pullback in new starts could begin to set the stage for a renewed undersupply of rental housing."
Key trends identified in the analysis include:

        <![CDATA[RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms for the real estate industry, announced today that it has filed a lawsuit against New York State Attorney General Letitia James, challenging a sweeping and unconstitutional statute that bans lawful speech and was prompted by an intentional campaign of misinformation and often-repeated false claims about the company&rsquo;s revenue management software.
&ldquo;The multifamily industry deserves tools that support responsible operations, informed decisions, and better outcomes for residents,&rdquo; said Dirk Wakeham, RealPage President and CEO. &ldquo;This law denies housing providers access to lawful analysis and information that helps them meet the needs of their communities.&rdquo;
&ldquo;This misguided effort to manage rental prices tramples on RealPage&rsquo;s First Amendment right to offer advice and recommendations,&rdquo; said Theodore J. Boutrous Jr., a partner at Gibson, Dunn &amp; Crutcher LLP and counsel for RealPage. &ldquo;New York legislators should propose real solutions to housing affordability issues instead of banning constitutionally protected speech.&rdquo;
RealPage is seeking a judgment and injunction against a recently adopted statute that seeks to prohibit the use of math and publicly available information to provide advice or recommendations to RealPage&rsquo;s customers who own and manage rental housing properties. Among other things, the statute seeks to ban software that uses public data about rental or lease terms to advise or recommend market-appropriate rent prices for rental housing properties.
New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed the bill enacting the new statute on October 15, 2025, following an increasingly common misinformation campaign espousing demonstrably incorrect and misleading information to encourage the passage of laws that would do nothing to improve housing availability or affordability. Instead, these inaccura...]]>

RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms for the real estate industry, today announced that it has reached a settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) that, subject to court approval, resolves the DOJ&rsquo;s legal action regarding the company&rsquo;s revenue management software used in the multifamily rental housing sector.
The settlement provides resolution and clarity for RealPage customers and the broader multifamily industry, ensuring the company&rsquo;s revenue management solutions remain fully available, legally compliant, and aligned with evolving laws and policies. RealPage has worked collaboratively with the DOJ throughout this process, engaging constructively to reach an outcome that strengthens confidence across the industry.
The settlement also provides greater certainty for housing providers and technology innovators that revenue management software can be operated confidently and in compliance with the views of federal antitrust enforcers.
&ldquo;This resolution marks an important milestone for RealPage, our customers, and the multifamily industry,&rdquo; said Dirk Wakeham, RealPage President and Chief Executive Officer. &ldquo;Through it all, our teams remained focused on serving customers and advancing the technology the industry relies on every day. We are convinced that RealPage is part of the solution to addressing the cost of housing, helping operators make informed, independent decisions in a complex housing market.

        <![CDATA[Resident retention remains strong as mortgage costs far outpace rent
RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-driven software platforms to the real estate industry, today released its third quarter 2025 analysis of the multifamily housing sector. During the quarter, the average advertised rent price decreased for only the second time since 2009. RealPage data also shows that home values have risen at twice the pace of market-rate rental units since 2020, pushing the typical mortgage payment well above the nation's average rent and keeping many households in the rental market longer.
&ldquo;Resident retention has increased and is approaching an all-time high as the current cost of renting is significantly less expensive than homeownership,&rdquo; said Carl Whitaker, chief economist at RealPage. &ldquo;With residents staying put longer, owners and operators have an opportunity to create an even higher-quality resident experience and build a stronger sense of community at their properties.&rdquo;
Q3 Industry Takeaways

Occupancy backtracked quarter-over-quarter to 95.4%
Rents are down nearly 8% in Denver and Austin and a little more than 5% in Phoenix.
The South region has added a quarter of a million units in the past 12 months (more than twice the second-fastest growing West region). As such, rents are down 1.7% in the past 12 months in the South while the West saw rents fall 0.4%. Conversely, the Midwest &amp; Northeast regions have seen rents grow 2.3% and 1.9%, respectively.
San Francisco's 7.1% rent growth in the past 12 months is far ahead of second-ranking Chicago (4.5%).

&ldquo;According to RealPage data, the outlook for the U.S. apartment market in the next 12 months is that supply will cool considerably from its current level,&rdquo; added Whitaker.
Q4 Industry Outlook

Nationwide, supply is starting to cool with 105,000 units delivered in the third quarter, which is the fewest since the second quarter...]]>

RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, announced today the company has reached a settlement and consent judgment with the State of Nevada regarding revenue management software use in Nevada. RealPage is pleased this resolution provides clarity for revenue management software use in Nevada, while preserving the ability to continue offering innovative solutions for the rental housing ecosystem.
RealPage denies the allegations made by the Nevada Attorney General and resolved this matter to avoid the costs and distraction of potential litigation. RealPage&rsquo;s solutions have always been legally compliant and are easily configurable as laws change or legal interpretations evolve. RealPage&rsquo;s revenue management software has been reviewed over the years both by experienced antitrust counsel and, in 2017, by the U.S. Department of Justice without objection. After rental prices increased (along with home prices and many other consumer goods) due to a severe shortage of supply and other reasons associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, housing affordability became a center point for politicians and regulators. Although RealPage has always used data responsibly and in a pro-competitive, legally compliant manner, in response to legislative activity, RealPage previously modified its revenue management software to remove nonpublic data of unaffiliated properties from the calculation of rent recommendations for all customers&rsquo; properties.
The proposed consent judgment includes the following terms:
No admission and full release

No admission of wrongdoing or liability by RealPage.
Release of any and all Nevada AG claims against RealPage related to allegations about its revenue management products.

With nearly 1,500 industry professionals in attendance, RealPage introduced a future shaped by agentic AI, where intelligent automation and human collaboration work together to elevate resident experiences, improve operational efficiency, and drive scalable growth across the multifamily industry.

&ldquo;AI&rsquo;s real promise lies in how it reshapes the human experience of work,&rdquo; said Dana Jones, RealPage CEO and President. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s about removing daily barriers, reducing burnout, and giving teams the bandwidth to show up with energy and purpose to focus on what matters most &ndash; delivering exceptional experiences for their residents.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[Market-rate apartment occupancy is expected to hold steady as demand remains strong
RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-driven software platforms to the real estate industry, announced today its 2025 second quarter analysis of the multifamily housing sector and key indicators for the third quarter and beyond. RealPage saw the pace of new apartment supply further decelerate following an ongoing, rapid decline in construction activity.
&ldquo;Demand for apartments has shown remarkable resilience even as the once-in-a-generation supply wave crests and retreats,&rdquo; said Carl Whitaker, chief economist at RealPage. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re observing healthy absorption rates across the nation. While new supply is decelerating, the total volume of new inventory delivering remains enough to satiate demand.&rdquo;
Q2 Industry Takeaways

Occupancy is currently steady at 95.7%, a modest year-over-year increase.
While average effective rents have grown at a muted rate of 0.8% year-over-year in the second quarter, markets with lower supply volumes, such as the Midwest, are seeing slightly stronger rent growth.
Concessions remain elevated across most markets, with 20% of the units currently offering a concession with one-month free promotions.
Rent growth remains strongest in regions with historically low supply volumes, emphasizing the growing disparity between limited vacancy coastal markets and supply-laden Sun Belt areas.
Rents have declined in 13 states over the past year, led by Arizona and Colorado with drops of over 4%. Both states rank among the top 5 for apartment inventory growth, behind only South Dakota, Idaho and North Carolina.
The declines in these 13 states aren't due to weak demand. Instead, strong supply appears to be meeting housing needs and may even be fueling economic growth by improving affordability; with job growth in these states averaging 0.7% YoY increase.

LAS VEGAS &amp; RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, continues to redefine the resident experience through its acquisition of Livble, a leader in flexible payment solutions for the multifamily industry.
Integrating Livble into LOFT&trade;, RealPage&rsquo;s fully integrated multifamily resident experience platform, and into Buildium&reg;, RealPage&rsquo;s all-in-one property management software for mixed portfolio and HOA managers, will provide residents with a flexible, transparent, and convenient way to split their rent payments, unlocking real value for both renters and property managers alike.
With the Livble solution, qualified residents can pay rent on their terms, splitting payments into up to four installments per month to better align with their cash flow. In return, property managers benefit from guaranteed on-time rent, real-time ledger reporting, and enhanced financial visibility&mdash;all through a single, seamless platform that eliminates the need for multiple third-party vendors. RealPage assumes 100 percent of the non-payment risk and manages all collections, reducing administrative burden and enabling property teams to focus on higher-value activities that enhance the resident experience.
Expanding LOFT with Livble is another step in the ongoing evolution of the platform. Today, more than three million units have access to LOFT, the multifamily industry&rsquo;s leading resident experience platform that brings leasing, moving, payments and rewards together in one seamless app. With the addition of Livble, residents will have greater payment flexibility supporting their ability to build financial wellness.
&ldquo;This strategic acquisition underscores RealPage&rsquo;s commitment to enhancing the resident experience,&rdquo; said...]]>

        <![CDATA[RealPage and OpenAI join forces to launch AI-driven innovation across the multifamily lifecycle
LAS VEGAS &amp; RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a global leader in software and data analytics for the real estate industry, today unveiled the Lumina&trade; AI Workforce, the multifamily sector&rsquo;s first agentic AI platform. Advancing beyond traditional automation and chatbots, the Lumina AI Workforce replaces fragmented tools with a coordinated network of intelligent AI agents that work across leasing, operations, facilities, finance, and resident engagement. These agents collaborate autonomously while partnering with their human teams, handling routine tasks and surfacing real-time insights so staff can focus on higher-value work. The result is a fully reimagined operating model, where speed, intelligence, and service converge to transform the future of multifamily living.
The Lumina AI Workforce is powered by the Lumina AI Data Platform, which provides the intelligence, context and orchestration layer that brings every agent and workflow together. Unlike point solutions, Lumina AI Agents are fully embedded into existing RealPage systems, creating a single, coordinated network that can operate deeper and broader across the property lifecycle. This allows agents to surface resident insights, anticipate needs, and determine the right time and channel to engage. The entire system is governed by a robust AI governance framework designed to ensure transparency, accountability and responsible AI use at every level of deployment.
This platform offers a new blueprint for how the multifamily industry will harness the power of a hybrid workforce where AI agents handle repetitive, time-consuming tasks, enabling humans to focus on strategic decisions and high-value resident relationships. By working together, they amplify human potential, simplify daily operations and drive meaningful gains in efficiency, responsiveness, and NOI.

RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, announced today its 2025 first quarter analysis of the multifamily housing market and key indicators to watch in the second quarter and beyond. Overall, the multifamily housing sector&rsquo;s once-in-a-generation supply wave has crested nationwide, including in roughly 70 percent of the nation&rsquo;s largest markets. Concurrently, demand for market-rate apartments in the first quarter was the highest first quarter reading ever recorded in RealPage&rsquo;s 32-year data set. As previously predicted, waning apartment supply coupled with continued strong demand will result in rent growth moving toward more historical normal levels by the end of the year.
Q1 Industry Takeaways

Over 116,092 market-rate apartments were delivered across the U.S. over the last three months, a continuation of the 50+ year high in apartment supply that is essentially on par with last quarter&rsquo;s record high.
Demand remained robust as 138,302 units were absorbed over the last three months.
U.S. occupancy registered at 95 percent in the first quarter, a historically normal rate that has ticked up over the last year amid strong demand.
Average effective asking apartment rents grew 0.8% in the year-ending first quarter. That rate registers below historically normal levels, but has grown modestly in recent months, particularly in metro areas with lower supply.
Very strong demand continued across the Sun Belt, particularly in Dallas, Phoenix, Atlanta, Austin and Charlotte.
Tampa, Minneapolis and Southern California also posted stronger than normal demand, with the exception of Orange County which saw lower demand than previous first quarters.
Midwest markets, many that have experienced lower supply, generally saw the highest rent gro...]]>

        <![CDATA[Company will defend technology&rsquo;s role in supporting efficient and affordable housing and seek an injunction against legislation adopted based on false claims concerning its revenue management software
RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, the leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, announced today that it has filed a lawsuit against the City of Berkeley, California (the &ldquo;City&rdquo;) for passing a sweeping and unconstitutional ordinance that bans lawful speech and was prompted by an intentional campaign of misinformation and often-repeated false claims about the company&rsquo;s revenue management software.
RealPage is seeking a judgment and injunction against the City&rsquo;s recently adopted ordinance that seeks to prohibit the use of math and publicly available information to provide advice or recommendations to its customers who own and manage rental housing properties. Specifically, the ordinance seeks to ban algorithms that use any &ldquo;information&rdquo; to advise or recommend market-appropriate rent prices for rental housing properties.
The Berkeley City Council passed the ordinance on March 25, 2025, following an increasingly common misinformation campaign espousing demonstrably false information to encourage the passage of laws that would do nothing to improve housing availability or affordability. Instead, these inaccuracies and flawed assumptions result in bad policy decisions such as this unconstitutional ordinance and threaten to disincentivize future development to address the housing shortage. RealPage&rsquo;s revenue management software contributes to a healthier and more efficient rental housing ecosystem that benefits both renters and housing providers.
The unconstitutional ordinance, codified at Berkeley Municipal Code Chapter 13.63, is set to go into effect on April 24, 2025, unless enjoined by the court.

        <![CDATA[Chief Economist provides year-end analysis indicating stable footing and predicts what we can expect in the industry ahead
RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, announced today its 2024 year-end review of the multifamily housing market and key indicators to watch in 2025. Overall, the multifamily sector stabilized in 2024 with apartment demand matching a 50-year supply peak. In 2025, supply will remain a key factor to watch with the expected delivery of approximately 500,000 new apartment units.
2024 Industry Takeaways

Robust U.S. apartment supply &mdash; more than any year since 1974 &mdash; has matched the strongest renter demand in three decades besides 2021.
The national occupancy rate held slightly below a &ldquo;historically normal&rdquo; level, averaging around 94.3%. Resident retention surged with lease renewals reaching a rarely seen 55%, while U.S. annual rent growth remained flat overall (less than 1%).
Elevated apartment development saw 60% more units under construction than the 2010s-decade norm, but the pipeline began to slow with the fewest number of starts since early 2013.

2025 Industry Predictions

Supply is the key theme for 2025. Initially, abundant supply is expected to lessen through the year as economic headwinds challenge developers. Easing supply will likely give way to an environment where housing shortages challenge some metro areas beyond 2025.
Renters in high-supply markets will see concessions as supply remains a heavy force on the market. As a result, retention will be a priority for operators looking to mitigate rising turnover and marketing costs.
Demand will continue to catch up with the wave of new supply delivery throughout the Sun Belt, where rental rate growth is likely to be modest. Meanwhile, based on supply-demand factors, rents in lower-supply metro areas are expected to grow at a pace similar to the 2010s decad...]]>

RealPage extensively cooperated with the DOJ throughout its investigation, and we have remained steadfast in our belief that RealPage never violated the antitrust laws. Throughout its investigation, the DOJ never identified RealPage as a target of the investigation. We appreciate the DOJ&rsquo;s recognition that its investigation merited closure.
RealPage will continue to aggressively defend itself in the remaining, previously filed civil lawsuits, which we believe are wholly without merit. As we have explained, including on our dedicated website, RealPage&rsquo;s revenue management software is purposely built to be legally compliant, enhances competition throughout the rental housing ecosystem and is highly configurable by our customers. RealPage revenue management customers always have total discretion to accept or reject pricing recommendations&mdash;and customers regularly exercise that discretion in practice.

RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, has been recognized as The TITAN Innovation Awards&rsquo; Gold Winner in the Innovation in Services and Solutions &ndash; Real Estate category for LOFT&trade;.
LOFT, developed by RealPage and announced earlier this year, is a fully integrated resident experience platform covering application, leasing, moving and living in one app. The TITAN Innovation Awards celebrate exceptional achievements across a wide range of industries, each designed to spotlight those driving progress and setting a new standard for ground-breaking innovation.

RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, the leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, today announced that its revenue management software customers have the ability to remove the use of nonpublic competitor data when calculating rent recommendations.
RealPage&rsquo;s response to the San Francisco ordinance
The San Francisco Board of Supervisors on September 3 passed an ordinance that essentially bans housing providers in San Francisco from using certain software and algorithms to help set rents. Of note, RealPage&rsquo;s three revenue management software products collectively serve only 10% of the rental housing units in San Francisco.
RealPage offers a choice to its customers
All RealPage revenue management customers &ndash; wherever their properties are located &ndash; have the ability to remove nonpublic data from the calculation of rent recommendations if they choose. RealPage&rsquo;s revenue management software provides value to its customers in all of its configurations, and the company has no plans to sunset any of its solutions. While the use of nonpublic data in the highly aggregated, anonymized and blended manner currently applied by RealPage has benefits to subscribers and renters that lead to more competitive pricing in the housing ecosystem, RealPage is committed to giving customers options on which products to use.
Housing affordability should be the real focus
While RealPage shares the San Francisco Board of Supervisors&rsquo; goal of helping renters, this ordinance will do nothing to make housing more affordable in the city, where there is a severe supply shortage of rental units that needs to be addressed.

97% of renters would choose an apartment offering an easy way to manage moving

RICHARDSON, Texas &amp; LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, the leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, has released findings from its second annual national survey of more than 2,000 apartment residents, indicating rising expectations for a modern, integrated renter experience that offers enhanced technology options, an integrated moving solution, rewards for paying rent and greater flexibility in payments.
Conducted to understand shifting renter demands and current pain points, the 2024 National Multifamily Renter Study shows the multifamily housing industry must adapt and enhance its offerings to attract and retain residents amid the changing rental landscape and increase in supply.
Findings from the June study of U.S.-based renters included:

97% say they would be more likely to renew their lease if working with their property manager was as easy as interacting with Amazon&reg;
97% would be more likely to choose an apartment offering a service to simplify moving, such as help setting up internet and utilities, finding a local mover and setting up payments
93% were interested in flexible rent payment schedules (biweekly, bimonthly, weekly) rather than a full, once-a-month payment

&ldquo;It&rsquo;s a renter&rsquo;s market, and they demand more from moving assistance, loyalty programs and payment options to enhance their living experience,&rdquo; said Rob Franklin, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Resident Solutions at RealPage. &ldquo;This national survey confirms the modern experience renters want today, and we are thrilled to...]]>

LAS VEGAS &amp; RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, the leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, today announced the introduction of generative AI (GenAI) into its major platform solutions. These advanced capabilities powered by the Lumina&trade; AI Platform are being showcased at RealWorld 2024, the company&rsquo;s flagship conference that brings together nearly 1,500 registered attendees from the multifamily community to highlight innovations in the rental housing industry.
Lumina Platform Leverages Data and AI to Meet Market Challenges
In today&rsquo;s &ldquo;perfect storm&rdquo; of rising expenses, staffing turnover, record levels of new apartment supply and increased competition for renters, property management companies are challenged to grow occupancy and net operating income by innovating to improve retention, increase efficiency, retain and augment staff and find opportunities to reduce costs and optimize revenue.
Lumina is the AI engine that unlocks the power of data to make RealPage products more engaging, automated, and insightful. Embedded across the company's major solutions, Lumina is the underlying AI platform that runs in the background to seamlessly integrate advanced technologies like GenAI, machine learning and natural language processing into tools and processes across most of the RealPage property technology portfolio.

Over 30 property managers and 200,000 units benefitting from beta program currently underway
RICHARDSON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealPage&reg;, the leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, today introduced LOFT&trade;, a fully integrated resident experience platform covering application, leasing, moving and living in one app, with over 30 property management companies (PMCs) and 200,000 units participating in the beta program announced in April. LOFT is built to streamline leasing, moving, payments and rewards, so that PMCs can level up their resident experience, boost efficiency, discover new revenue streams and drive retention and renewals &ndash; all in one place.
Redefining the Resident Experience
As technology becomes a core component of apartment living, expectations have shifted and residents have more choices, while cost and competitive pressures for PMCs are making engagement and retention mission critical. Without an optimized resident experience, the prevailing use of disjointed point solutions in multifamily leaves residents dissatisfied and PMCs sacrificing operational efficiency, reputation and ancillary revenue.
&ldquo;Listening to our customers and the residents they serve led us to create one modern app to meet today&rsquo;s digital lifestyle,&rdquo; said Dana Jones, RealPage CEO and President. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m proud of the progress we&rsquo;ve made with LOFT to transform the entire rental journey, and I can&rsquo;t wait to get it in the hands of more residents later this year.&rdquo;
Seamless, Simplified Solutions for Property Owners and Operators
Developed with a focus on enabling frictionless experiences, digitalized processes and flexible property management system (PMS) integration, the LOFT platform puts everything resident-related in one app.

        <![CDATA[LOFT from RealPage enhances the resident experience and optimizes property management operations with flexible, efficient and reliable rental payment options
RICHARDSON, Texas, and NEW YORK (Aug. 8, 2024) &ndash; RealPage&reg;, the leading global provider of AI-enabled software platforms to the real estate industry, today announced Flex as its preferred technology provider for flexible rent payments. This strategic partnership expands on the company&rsquo;s existing integration, providing RealPage customers with the capability to enable Flex as a payment option for residents within LOFT&trade;, RealPage&rsquo;s next-generation resident portal and app.
High demand for payment flexibility was confirmed in a June 2024 national survey* of more than 2,000 renters, revealing that 93% are interested in flexible payment schedules instead of paying in full once a month. Flex&rsquo;s mobile application will allow residents to split their rent bill into smaller, more manageable payments while ensuring property managers receive their full rent payment due on time. With over $8 billion in annual rent payments processed, Flex has become a trusted partner to property managers who offer the solution across more than 6 million rental units.
For property managers, offering flexible rent payments has proven an effective way to boost NOI (net operating income), improve resident retention and stand out in a competitive rental market. Through this technology partnership, RealPage multifamily customers can offer their residents a convenient alternative to traditional payment methods. With Flex, residents can better align their rent payments with their pay cycles, introducing flexibility that makes paying rent easier to manage and less financially stressful.
&ldquo;Partnering with Flex allows us to offer a new level of financial flexibility for residents while simultaneously optimizing rent collection processes for property managers,&rdquo; said Dana Jones, RealPage CEO and President....]]>

        <![CDATA[Company Addresses False Narrative Concerning Revenue Management Software
RICHARDSON, Texas &ndash; June 18, 2024 &ndash; RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today issued a statement to correct factual inaccuracies that have been reported related to its revenue management software and its impact on renters.
Starting in October 2022, false and misleading claims about RealPage and its revenue management software have been reported to the media and in legal filings. These factual inaccuracies threaten to undermine the essential benefits RealPage&rsquo;s solutions provide to both renters and housing providers. In fact, RealPage&rsquo;s revenue management software contributes to a healthier and more efficient rental housing ecosystem.
&ldquo;The time is now to address a number of false claims about RealPage&rsquo;s revenue management software, and how rental housing providers operate when setting rent prices,&rdquo; said Dana Jones, RealPage CEO and President. &ldquo;Housing affordability should be the real focus. RealPage is proud of the role our customers play in providing safe and affordable housing to millions of people. Despite the noise, we will continue to innovate with confidence and make sure our solutions continue to benefit residents and housing providers, alike.&rdquo;
Housing affordability is the real problem
Housing affordability, including the lack of affordable rental housing, is a critically important national problem created by a host of complex economic and political forces, including:

persistent undersupply of rental housing units,
increasing demand for rental housing in many areas of the country,
inflationary pressures that affect costs to build, insure and manage housing properties,
inefficient or unnecessarily onerous permit and zoning requirements,
higher mortgage rates and home prices driving more people to rent rather than own their own homes, and

RICHARDSON, Texas &ndash; April 17, 2024 &ndash; RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced the next evolution of multifamily innovation with the Lumina&trade; AI Platform. Harnessing end-to-end artificial intelligence (AI), the next-generation data platform is packaged with trained AI models that enable smarter systems of engagement, intelligence and management to help optimize performance for property managers.
RealPage pioneered the use of AI in the multifamily industry over two decades ago, with more than 50 AI innovations brought to market since 2002, and today continues to deliver on its AI vision with Lumina. The platform provides key capabilities to property managers to improve efficiency, productivity and retention, all while ensuring RealPage&rsquo;s best practice approach to AI governance.

RICHARDSON, Texas &ndash; April 10, 2024 &ndash; RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced the development of a new resident-facing technology platform offering the most robust, personalized and digitally-optimized experience in the industry. Purpose-built to deliver a holistic, seamless experience from leasing to living, the new platform will offer a unified online leasing flow from prospect to move-in, including fraud detection technology, a move-in marketplace of services and offers, financial wellness tools and a loyalty platform.
Challenges renters face today
Meeting today&rsquo;s high renter expectations for digital convenience in the resident experience is complicated by disjointed digital interactions and third-party apps, fragmented and incomplete consumer insights, and a complex and confusing product landscape, leading to under-optimized revenue, loss of operational efficiency and resident dissatisfaction. In fact, more than 50% of Gen Z and Millennials are willing to pay higher rent for improved technology experiences, and 36% are considering moving because they are not satisfied with their current technology experience.
The multifamily industry demands a modern set of resident tools and touchpoints that not only removes friction for residents and enhances their experience but also fits seamlessly into the property technology platforms that operators, property staff and leasing teams use today to support residents and manage the business.
"Having delivered many industry firsts to our customers over the years, RealPage is uniquely positioned to redefine the resident experience for the multifamily industry," said Dana Jones, RealPage CEO. "We look forward to launching the industry&rsquo;s most robust pro...]]>

RICHARDSON, Texas &ndash; March 27, 2024 &ndash; RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced two powerful new proptech offerings designed to combat increasingly sophisticated and well-organized rental fraud for the multifamily industry. The new offerings will be available with the company&rsquo;s OneSite and On-Site leasing and property management platforms, leveraging technology from Plaid, a global data network that powers easy, safe and reliable financial data connectivity to apps and services.
The two solutions, RealPage Identity Verification &ndash; Premium and RealPage Income Verification, offer better protection and are seamlessly integrated into the existing leasing process, making adoption easier for staff and more efficient for applicants.
RealPage recently announced results from its extensive fraud study that sheds light on the impact of fraud today, its increasing complexity and the need for solutions to detect fraud earlier in the leasing process.
"Our nationwide study revealed that often over half of rental fraud is discovered after a resident moves in, which leaves the property vulnerable to extensive damage,&rdquo; said Josh Albrechtsen, RealPage SVP and GM, Front Office Solutions. &ldquo;In partnership with Plaid, RealPage is innovating to help customers detect fraud as early in the process as possible by offering multifaceted verification across data, device, document and biometrics, leveraging robust AI and machine learning, while streamlining the tenant sign-up process."
Key capabilities of these two new solutions include:

RICHARDSON, Texas &ndash; March 25, 2024 &ndash; RealPage&reg;, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today released the findings from its proprietary fraud study, the largest national fraud survey of the multifamily industry conducted to date. With more than 400 property management professionals responding across five major U.S. markets, the study uncovers the drivers behind recent spikes in the frequency and complexity of rental application fraud, the industry&rsquo;s self-reported success or failure in fraud prevention and technology adoption, and the business impact of fraud.
Key multifamily concerns addressed in the new survey include:

What is driving the increase in apartment rental fraud - Increasingly organized rings of fraudsters and the wide availability of &ldquo;how-to&rdquo; information on social media are exploiting gaps in protection
When fraud is being detected - The lack of sufficient detection prevents early recognition of diverse types of fraudulent action during the rental application process
How well fraud impact is understood - limited operator visibility into the full business impact of rental application fraud at the local level contributes to a broader, deeper effect on end-to-end property and portfolio results

"The most alarming surprise in the nationwide findings from 402 multifamily professionals isn&rsquo;t that 75% saw more rental fraud in the past year," said Josh Albrechtsen, RealPage SVP and GM, Front Office. &ldquo;The real eye-opener is how much more organized, diverse and difficult to discover the fraud is &mdash; resulting in extended damage to revenue, reputation and residents.&rdquo;
The Challenges

        <![CDATA[Survey of 2,000 renters finds nearly 70% are bullish on the state of renting today, and highlights shifting preferences, technologies and amenities, and how they differ across age demographics
RICHARDSON, TEXAS, Aug. 8, 2023 &ndash; RealPage, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, released today its findings from a national survey of multifamily renters in America during the company&rsquo;s annual RealWorld 2023 customer conference in Las Vegas.  
The study found that two-thirds (66%) of multifamily renters are satisfied with their current housing situation, preferring the financial freedom afforded by being able to rent more cheaply than buy in the areas where they want to live, as well as the flexibility for remote work and trying new locations. Gen Z renters (51% in particular), feel that renting is a better option than buying.
Key trends and resident preferences were centered around seamless and instant gratification. Highlighted in the survey included: the use of online and social media tools like artificial intelligence to search for rentals, online portals and/or apps for interacting with property management, electronic and mobile payment options, convenience and safety features such as package lockers, rideshare stops, pet amenities, and smart home technologies like smart cameras and door locks.
&ldquo;The research tells us that most apartment renters are happy being apartment renters,&rdquo; said Jay Parsons, Chief Economist for RealPage. &ldquo;Older renters say they&rsquo;re renting because it frees them up from home maintenance and other responsibilities. Younger renters are renting because it gives them more flexibility. And renters of all ages tell us that apartments provide an entry into preferred neighborhoods where they couldn&rsquo;t afford to buy.&rdquo;

​RICHARDSON, TEXAS &ndash; Aug. 7, 2023 &ndash; RealPage, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced a new property demand intelligence solution called Demandx&trade; during RealWorld, the company&rsquo;s annual customer conference.
Demandx reinvents the way operators harness and solve for demand for the multifamily industry. The solution leverages AI to optimize the entire demand funnel, connecting the marketing, leasing and pricing functions to enable companies to spend smarter, lease faster, and price right. Demandx offers property managers the opportunity to outperform the market with more qualified calls and improved lead-to-lease conversions.
&ldquo;As the multifamily industry continues to centralize operations, we saw a unique opportunity to bring together our best-in-class AI Revenue Management, G5 Smart Digital Advertising and Knock CRM offerings into a cohesive solution,&rdquo; said Amy Dreyfuss, senior vice president of revenue management, RealPage. &ldquo;By doing so, we are helping customers proactively place ads and create lead management strategies that minimize vacancy loss from predicted exposure across a unified dashboard experience.&rdquo;
Traditionally, the industry managed the factors that impact demand independently &ndash; revenue management adjusts price, marketing generates leads and sales secures leases. However, when these demand factors are integrated, an organization can make proactive decisions around all of these levers to maximize revenues. Using AI &ndash; informed by the industry&rsquo;s most compelling dataset &ndash; Demandx enables proactive marketing and sales decisions that account for predicted exposure, optimizing digital ads and prioritizing leads strategically to minimize future vacancies.

RICHARDSON, Texas &ndash; March 28, 2023 - RealPage, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, is proud to announce that it has received a 2023 ENERGY STAR&reg; Partner of the Year Award for Sustained Excellence from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Energy. The award, the EPA&rsquo;s highest level of recognition, celebrates businesses that demonstrate their dedication to environmental protection through energy-efficient innovations. ENERGY STAR&rsquo;s Sustained Excellence Award is the highest honor among the categories and recognizes RealPage for its year-over-year commitment to energy efficiency.
RealPage provides the most comprehensive set of integrated energy reporting, management and conservation-related tools and professional services in the multifamily industry. Through its Sustainability Solutions, RealPage worked with operators of 11,000 buildings to prepare and file for EPA benchmarking.

        <![CDATA[NEW YORK, August 16, 2022 &ndash; Rose Associates, Inc., the New York-based multifamily real estate developer and manager, has been employing RealPage&rsquo;s AI Revenue Management&nbsp; (AIRM) solution at select properties to optimize pricing and reduce vacancies. Since January of this year, Rose has utilized the machine learning model at nine of its fully market rate properties, including Manhattan properties The Ventura, 70 Pine Street, and Riverwalk in Port Imperial New Jersey.&nbsp;
"We are leveraging AIRM at a limited number of properties, and it is clearly proving to be a valuable revenue management tool,&rdquo; said Scott Marino, executive director of multifamily at Rose Associates. &ldquo;The intelligence we are accessing informs our pricing and allows us to reduce vacancies. There are a number of benefits, with asset optimization being primary among them.&rdquo;
The backbone of the AIRM solution is made up of historical data from 6M lease transactions across the US over the last five years. The data set is far too large for an individual to analyze, but the technology can quickly deliver an&nbsp; analysis that allows leasing professionals to better predict supply and demand, and to better forecast whether an expiring lease is likely to renew.&nbsp;
Rose&rsquo;s Revenue and Analytics team has decades of experience pricing rentals in the NYC Metro Area. AIRM is an additional tool that the team now has at its fingertips. While the technology proposes a price based purely on data, Rose team members still have the ability to adjust pricing based on their knowledge of the market. At the properties where AIRM is deployed, Rose can adjust pricing daily and react quickly to trends.&nbsp;
Renters also benefit thanks to the clarity the technology provides. Rose leasing agents present pricing and on many occasions, renters can save simply by changing their move-in date or the length of their lease.

        <![CDATA[Data From Millions of Apartment Leases Shows Renters Spend 23% of Income on Rent
Richardson, TX&nbsp;&ndash;&nbsp;(July 18, 2022)&nbsp;&ndash; RealPage, a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, released today its 2022 Market-Rate Apartment Affordability Report during its annual RealWorld conference in Las Vegas. The report shows that market-rate apartment renters signing leases so far in 2022 are spending only 23.2% of income toward rent, up modestly from pre-pandemic norms, but still well below the traditional affordability ceiling of 33%. The results come from a first-of-its-kind study based on millions of actual apartment leases.
Rents, like nearly all expenses in today&rsquo;s inflationary market, are growing at the fastest pace in more than 40 years. That has put a spotlight on affordability. But RealPage&rsquo;s study shows renter household incomes are nearly (though not entirely) keeping pace with rents.
&ldquo;The study shows that market-rate apartment affordability is not yet a major concern, and won&rsquo;t be so long as wages continue growing,&rdquo; said Jay Parsons, Chief Economist and Head of Industry Principals for RealPage. &ldquo;There&rsquo;s been massive, well-qualified demand for apartments even as rents have increased, and that&rsquo;s why vacancy remains low and rent collections high.&rdquo;
Of course, renters have not been immune to inflation. The median household income for market-rate apartment renters so far in 2022 soared to an all-time high of $75,000, up 15.4% since 2020. Over the same timeframe, the median monthly rent on a new lease jumped 21.9% to $1,510, nationally. That reversed a pattern of eight straight years of rent-to-income ratios inching downward. The share of income spent on rent ticked up from 21.3% in 2019 to 23.2% in 2022, marking a return to the 2011 norm.

The award, the EPA&rsquo;s highest level of recognition, celebrates businesses that demonstrate their dedication to environmental protection through energy efficient innovations.
RealPage earned the award for a second consecutive year in recognition of its Sustainability Suite, a comprehensive set of integrated energy management and conservation-related tools. The tools include RealPage&rsquo;s AI-based Smart Waste technology, which is built to optimize dumpster pick-up efficiency, reducing trash contamination fees by up to 80% and saving properties up to $1,800 per dumpster per year.
RealPage will further accelerate its energy efficient innovations through its new partnership with real estate environmental, social and governance (ESG) technology provider Measurabl&reg;.

&ldquo;Tools such as Smart Waste, and our broader suite of Sustainability Solutions, are having a real impact on how property managers think about energy efficiency throughout their communities. Streamlining even the smallest management tasks can have major impacts on sustainability efforts,&rdquo; said Dana Jones, CEO of RealPage. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re honored the EPA once again recognized our efforts, and we&rsquo;ll continue to help the properties we serve get smart and go green.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[RICHARDSON, TX &ndash; July 6, 2021 &ndash; RealPage, Inc., a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced the launch of Smart Water, the first solution in the multifamily industry that leverages submeter technology to significantly reduce the cost of water management for both residential units and common areas.
Smart Water allows property managers, owners and operators to act on potential leaks and manage water consumption across the entire property in real time. In initial trials, the solution is estimated to save properties approximately $67 per unit annually by mitigating leaks that range from slow and hard-to-detect to catastrophic. In addition, the solution enhances resident satisfaction and retention by reducing related costly repairs and promoting sustainable living.
According to a 2020 EPA WaterSense report, 90% of all communities have leaks, and 30% of all water consumption is attributed to wasted water from undetected leaks. In addition, the report also indicated that an irrigation system with one leak just 1/32 of an inch in diameter can waste roughly 6,300 gallons of water, costing up to $95 per month.
&ldquo;One of our clients saved 750,000 gallons of water in the first three months across 47,000 units. And a water retrofit saved a single Denver property 6,000,000 gallons of water, or the equivalent of $130,000 annually,&rdquo; said Mary Nitschke, VP of Sustainability at RealPage. &ldquo;The savings in both water consumption and costs are enormous.

        <![CDATA[RICHARDSON, Texas, (July 1, 2021) &mdash; RealPage, Inc., a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, has tapped Kevin Jones, RealPage Vice President and co-founder of SimpleBills, to lead their strategy to help the owners and operators of Student Housing with simple and innovative software solutions that focus on the resident experience.
Jones co-founded SimpleBills in 2008 after experiencing the challenges with utility set up and billing among college roommates. SimpleBills was acquired by RealPage in 2019 as the industry&rsquo;s first and only utility management solution delivering a concierge-type service for residents and vastly simplifying the utility management process for properties owners and operators. Since its origin, the company has grown to serve over 175,000 residents nationwide.
&ldquo;Our mission at RealPage is to help our customers simplify and innovate,&rdquo; said RealPage Vice President Kevin Jones. &ldquo;While SimpleBills is a great example of a disruptive approach to utility management that serves that mission, RealPage is innovating in many areas that benefit the unique and dynamic needs of the student housing market.&rdquo;
Owners and operators know that a great resident experience leads to improved retention and online reputation. With insights based on in-depth data from over 1 million student beds, SimpleBills customers can determine precisely where their properties stand among their peers and if they are on track to meet occupancy goals.&nbsp;

        <![CDATA[Richardson, TX (June 14, 2021) -- RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced that SimpleBills, a RealPage Company, has signed an agreement with Cardinal Group Management (&ldquo;CGM&rdquo;) to expand its utility management services. Cardinal is the nation&rsquo;s third-largest student housing operator, with over 85,000 student living beds throughout the U.S. The agreement will expand SimpleBills&rsquo; utility management services to Cardinal Management by an additional 16,000 beds, beginning with the fall 2021 season.
CGM&rsquo;s Executive VP of Operations Eddie Moreno said, &ldquo;We are excited to implement SimpleBills at more of the company&rsquo;s communities. SimpleBills&rsquo; model offers a unique value proposition to our residents and on-site teams, simplifying the transaction process for all parties involved.&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;Buying back time to do the things that matter is always a good outcome for our staff and we&rsquo;re happy to be expanding our relationship with the SimpleBills team.&rdquo;
Will Conroy, Vice President of Cardinal Management Services added, &ldquo;The SimpleBills service model delivers such a unique benefit to residents, who value their time and attention. They don&rsquo;t have to call utility companies and pay deposits when they move in. Everything is smooth and easy for them, which is a real value-add considering the often-chaotic process of moving back to school and into a new apartment. We see SimpleBills as a valuable amenity and one we highlight during the sales process.&rdquo;
SimpleBills handles collections from residents and can split bills for multiple people sharing a room or unit. Properties do not have to pre-fund the resident share of utility costs, and collections are made separately from the rent cycle, mitigating the monthly dip in cash flow that properties typically experience.
SimpleBills audits utility bills in addition to handling the bil...]]>

RICHARDSON, Texas, (June 10, 2021)&nbsp;&mdash; RealPage, Inc., a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, has launched Identity Verification (IDV) across its leasing, screening and payments solutions. RealPage IDV is the industry&rsquo;s first comprehensive solution designed to prevent fraud at multiple touchpoints across the leasing and payments process, saving property management operators over $30 per unit per year.
Identity fraud&nbsp;is a&nbsp;pervasive issue, and the problem has accelerated in recent years.&nbsp;According to the Federal Trade Commission, in 2020, 2.2 million consumers filed fraud reports and 1.4 million filed identity theft reports, up 115% from 2019. This resulted in $3.3 billion in total fraud losses, up from $1.9 billion in 2019. Identity theft has intensified during the pandemic, with one in 10 U.S. adults reporting identity theft since the pandemic began.
In multifamily real estate, the costs associated with identity fraud are considerable, and include lost rent revenue, increased legal costs, lower productivity and reputational damage. Industry research indicates that property managers incur many thousands of dollars in additional expenses in connection with eviction-related vandalism and other expenses due to application, screening and payment fraud.
RealPage IDV provides property managers with a complete, easy-to-use solution that helps them reduce fraud. It employs comprehensive, dynamically-updated identity intelligence and pattern recognition which provides visibility into the profiles of both the application and the applying identity to detect multiple forms of identity fraud.
&ldquo;In the short time we were in beta with IDV, we identified three fraudulent applicants which saved us $50,000,&rdquo; said Corissa Steinman, RealPage customer and Operations Project Manager a...]]>

        <![CDATA[RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, announced the full-year results of AI Screening, its AI-based resident screening solution. The results were published in a white paper available here. A key finding: AI Screening delivers an average savings of $39 per unit per year, proving that it pushes NOI higher by markedly reducing non-payment and lease default risks. The documented savings exceed early estimates of $31 per unit by 25%.
One national REIT reported savings of $1.1 million across its 52,000 units. Early lease terminations were reduced by 24% YOY, while skips and evictions were decreased by 38%. Smaller property managers reported similar savings in proportion with their portfolio sizes. Across 50,000 same-store leases representing 487 unique assets and 130,000 units, RealPage AI Screening also drove a 10.2% reduction in the average balance owed per move-in.
RealPage AI Screening taps into a database of more than 30 million lease outcomes to more accurately predict &ldquo;willingness to pay,&rdquo; a more sophisticated screening method than the conventional credit and background check. The study did not quantify increased income due to higher occupancy resulting from the software&rsquo;s ability to identify good renters who might be rejected by conventional screening software.
&nbsp;&ldquo;These are just stunning numbers,&rdquo; said Rich Hughes, SVP Data Science at RealPage. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re not only talking about reducing risk of default and its costs, which is what we measured. Many users are also going to hit higher occupancy rates by being able to say &lsquo;yes&rsquo; to people they&rsquo;d otherwise have turned away. They are also able to reduce the high costs of turns due to defaults, boost their renewal rates, lower their marketing spend and perhaps be able to nudge rents up. So, the payoff goes well beyond the numbers documented in the study.&rdquo;

Camden seeks to continue improving its residents&rsquo; experience with the single ComunityConnect App that controls community gates, building and corridor doors, and smart access to each unit.The smart access solution includes proximity readers at each building door that provide a guest or delivery person with proper authorization from the resident to be directed from the gate to the unit door with the aid of smartphone-based in-building navigation. The feature, called CommunityConnect WayFinding, is unique to the RealPage offering. The touchless capabilities of the solution will be appreciated in today&rsquo;s COVID environment and beyond.Through CommunityConnect, Camden expects to improve the efficiency of its maintenance staff and greatly eliminate the need for keys/fobs, realizing efficiencies in managing access. With authorization from the resident, maintenance staff will be able to enter a unit to perform maintenance when the resident is not at home, and the system will record, for residents and management, exactly when staff entered the unit. This added security is appreciated by residents and helps explain why Camden has one of the highest Online Reputation Assessment (ORA) scores in the industry, which contributes to higher retention rates and better demand generation.CommunityConnect&rsquo;s smart access also enables prospective residents to visit vacant units without a leasing agent accompanying them.

        <![CDATA[Can Slash Waste Costs by 40% and Boost Sustainability
RICHARDSON, Texas (September 14, 2020) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today launched the RealPage&reg; Waste Management Solution, an AI-based solution that revolutionizes multifamily waste and recycling management. The RealPage Waste Management Solution enables property management companies to reduce waste-related expenses while boosting net operating income (NOI) and sustainability easily. It dramatically represents the latest addition to the RealPage suite of Sustainability products.
The RealPage Waste Management Solution employs camera-based IoT, AI and RealPage&rsquo;s utility management platform to optimize dumpster capacity and prevent costly fines for contaminated recycling. Its cameras monitor the fullness, content, pickups, contamination levels and location of each container at a property. Alerts are sent to properties when issues are detected so site teams can take immediate remedial action.
The RealPage Waste Management Solution also reports cost, scheduling and pickup metrics to provide portfolio-wide visibility into waste operations and vendor services. In early trials, the solution has demonstrated that it can reduce the cost of managing waste at apartment communities by an average of 40% while also helping ensure that sustainability reporting requirements and government mandates are met.
Jason Lindwall, SVP of Utility Management at RealPage, said the current number of stay-at-home residents has cast a spotlight on waste management. &ldquo;With millions of residents working from home, the pressure on multifamily managers to efficiently manage waste and utilities with reduced on-site staff is enormous,&rdquo; he explained. &ldquo;The RealPage Waste Management Solution represents a radical advancement in multifamily sustainability even in normal times. Now you can remotely monitor and control every aspect of...]]>

        <![CDATA[Richardson, TX (September 3, 2020) &ndash; STRATIS IoT, a RealPage company today announced participation in the Alexa for Residential program with Amazon to provide fleet management of Alexa-enabled devices in multifamily residences. The program will enable properties and residents to control the 1,000,000+ smart devices currently managed by STRATIS IoT from more than 30 manufacturers via voice. For the first phase of the program, STRATIS IoT will deploy Amazon Echo Dots for 303 units at, a Greystar property in Denver, Colorado. Watch Parq on Speer for short demonstration.
Alexa for Residential enables properties to provide residents with ready-to-use Alexa-enabled smart home experiences from the moment they move in. The Echo Dots in each unit will be preconfigured to interface with STRATIS IoT, enabling seamless resident control through the STRATIS IoT platform, allowing for a connected resident experience.
Residents will be able to automatically control and access their Alexa-enabled devices in their smart apartment during the term of their lease. Residents can use Alexa to control their smart home features and ask Alexa for information about the weather, play the news, and more. For a more customized experience, residents can link their personal Amazon account to their unit&rsquo;s device to listen to their music playlists, shop via Amazon, call friends and family, and more. When a resident moves-out, they are automatically de-paired from in-unit devices and they revert back to property staff control. Property managers can also use Alexa-enabled devices to showcase the unit&rsquo;s smart home technology and provide self-guided tours.

Now, states and localities are deciding if and when to end or extend eviction moratoriums. Today, eviction moratoriums are expiring in Atlanta and Pennsylvania. On Tuesday, they will expire in Nevada, California and Florida.
In Pennsylvania, a Census survey said that one in five adults either missed July&rsquo;s rent or mortgage payment or had slight or no confidence their household could make their rent payment in August in time, the&nbsp;Philadelphia Enquirer&nbsp;said.
Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf hinted on&nbsp;Monday&nbsp;that he supports a second extension of the moratorium, pending approval from the General Assembly.

Even so, it isn&rsquo;t pretty.
The jobs market started the year strong, but DFW lost 282,000 jobs between February and April after the pandemic hit, Willett said. Some of the jobs have since returned or new ones have replaced them, but the region is still down 152,000 jobs, Willett said in a webinar about Multifamily Housing in DFW put on by ULI.
&ldquo;That sounds horrible, and it is certainly painful,&rdquo; Willett said. &ldquo;We&rsquo;ve lost about 4 percent. But that 4 percent downsizing is actually one of the better results throughout the country.&rdquo;

Developers Jim Meyer, of Atlantic Capital Properties, and Mack Reese, of Gateway Ventures, proposed the $87 million&nbsp;project at John Wesley Dobbs Avenue and Courtland Street. It would feature 247 units and 742 beds, with up to 15% of the units set aside for working class households at 80% of Area Median Income and renting from about $1,100 to $1,900.
The Meyer and Reese partnership have the less than 1-acre property, which includes a 1960s office building and an empty parking lot, under contract.&nbsp;
The redevelopment of the site may hinge on a request for a $4.3 million reduction in property taxes over the next 10 years. The proposal goes before the Development Authority of Fulton County on Aug. 25.&nbsp;

The Arizona Multihousing Association, the Manufactured Housing Communities of Arizona and several rental owners filed a special action with the Arizona Supreme Court late Wednesday. They're asking the court to invalidate the state&rsquo;s eviction moratorium that Gov. Doug Ducey ordered on March 24.
In late July, Ducey extended the moratorium that protects renters who have been hurt by COVID-19 until&nbsp;Oct. 31 as long as tenants apply for aid from Arizona&rsquo;s eviction protection programs.Housing advocates say Arizona&rsquo;s moratorium extension will help thousands of renters stay in their home until they get the state aid. But they are concerned for property owners because the state money&nbsp;has been slow to get out.&nbsp;

In downtown Los Angeles, rent for a 566-square-foot one-bedroom at the Eighth and Grand luxury apartments would have set you back at least $2,286 at the end of January, according to a listing on Zillow.
As of Thursday, the same size unit at the building with a Whole Foods on the ground floor was advertised for as low as $1,771.
A few blocks away, at another luxury building, monthly rent for the cheapest 1,284-square-foot, three-bedroom unit has come down $385, to $3,870. Walk a bit more and you&rsquo;ll find more discounts, often with extra goodies such as two months&rsquo; free rent.

        <![CDATA[Multi-Housing News&nbsp;(August 10, 2020) --&nbsp;More than 79 percent of U.S. rental households have made rent payments as of Aug. 6, according to the latest report from the National Multifamily Housing Council. The report comes amid stalled negotiations in Congress over the latest stimulus relief package and days after President Trump announced an executive order surrounding evictions and unemployment benefits.
According to the study, 79.3 percent of rental households made full or partial rent payments in the first week of August, a 1.9 percentage point decrease from the same time period last year and a slight increase from the same time period last month, when&nbsp;77.4 percent of renters&nbsp;had paid by July 6.

        <![CDATA[National Real Estate Investor&nbsp;(August 4, 2020) --&nbsp;Student housing operators are optimistic about demand in markets where universities will hold face-to-face classes this fall, but have a gloomy outlook for markets where universities will shift entirely online.
Uncertainty looms over off-campus student housing operators in markets where universities have elected to go entirely virtual, says Sean Baird, director of the national student housing group with real estate services firm Colliers International. They do not know whether students will honor the leases they signed or what their final occupancy will look like for the upcoming academic year. They are looking at the upcoming school year through unfavorable lenses and expecting high vacancies.
For student housing owners in markets where universities are reopening in person, there is a great amount of optimism, says Baird. A number of these universities are re-evaluating their on-campus housing strategies by eliminating double, triple, and quadruple occupancy bedrooms, while also taking entire&nbsp;on-campus dorms off-line in order to use as housing for COVID-19 positive students to quarantine.&nbsp;That has created&nbsp;a surge in demand&nbsp;as more students are pushed into the off-campus housing market.

        <![CDATA[Houston Chronicle (August 4, 2020) --Apartment developer Camden Property Trust said Houston&rsquo;s multifamily market is experiencing stronger headwinds than other cities where it operates, a result of the pandemic&rsquo;s effect on the economy along with the struggling energy industry and an influx of new units opening this year.
&ldquo;Houston continues to be one of our weaker markets,&rdquo; Camden CFO Alex Jessett said Friday during a second-quarter earnings call. Roughly 19,000 new apartments are scheduled to open in the market this year &mdash; many in downtown and Midtown, he said.
Houston-based Camden, which operates 164 properties across the U.S., has nearly 6,000 units throughout the Houston area, including several complexes in the urban core. It recently completed a $132 million high-rise downtown, which is 24 percent leased.

Following 39 quarters of rent increases, the average asking rent for an L.A. County apartment fell $33 a month in the spring from the winter quarter, dropping to $2,122, figures from the Southern California News Group rent index shows. L.A. County rent also dropped $1 from the spring of 2019.
By comparison, Los Angeles landlords averaged a rent hike of $18 a month every quarter since the spring of 2010.
In Orange County, the average fell $27 from winter to $2,066 a month, the index showed. The average increase from one quarter to the next was $16 a month during the past decade. Rent increased from a year earlier, but by a mere $6.

They are preparing their properties for student move-ins under strict cleaning protocols, adjusting amenities and common areas to the new realities and helping universities find student beds as they de-densify on-campus dorms.
In a way, now is a boom time for off-campus student housing, according to the speakers at Bisnow's&nbsp;Boston Student Housing Update webinar&nbsp;Tuesday. "De-densifying on campus is creating opportunities to further strengthen off-campus communities," Campus Apartments Executive Vice President of Development Warren Burke said. "Our properties are tracking at 95% on rent collection, and pre-leasing is down just a tick or two from last year." Burke said he has been in daily discussions with seven universities about availability at Campus Apartments properties.&nbsp; "We're offering them first opportunity if possible to take those leases," he said.Read more at: Bisnow]]>

RICHARDSON, Texas, (July 30, 2020)&nbsp;&ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced the general availability of Online Vendor Payments automating the entire vendor payment process from procurement to purchase order, invoice processing and payment. Online Vendor Payments, which is part of the RealPage Accounting and Financial Suite, enables property management companies to easily reduce expenses and eliminate 100% of paper checks and other manual processes that can lead to errors and slow down the procurement lifecycle. It also lowers risk and increases ROI, all while providing complete visibility into payments status real-time.
RealPage Online Vendor Payments incorporates the AvidXchange network of over 680,000 suppliers processing $140 billion in vendor transactions in 2019 and integrates with RealPage Accounting and Spend Management, allowing users to track and manage expenses from a single platform.
&ldquo;We see so many advantages for customers with RealPage Vendor Payments,&rdquo; said Sara Jones, RealPage SVP, Spend Management and Accounting. &ldquo;The more suppliers move to electronic payments, the more customers can save the $3 to $7 average cost of processing a paper check while significantly reducing the risk of check fraud at the same time. Vendor Payments also allows suppliers to choose from virtual card, enhanced ACH or check options, which helps reduce payment processing time from 40 days to fewer than 10. And customers can rely on AvidXchange&rsquo;s full-service payment team to work directly with vendors to maintain their payment data and verify their accepted payment types. It&rsquo;s all upside!&rdquo;
&ldquo;In partnership with RealPage, we&rsquo;re helping real estate companies automate payments so they can spend more time focused on managing properties and less on paying bills,&rdquo; said Dan Drees, Chief Grow...]]>

MarketWatch (July 30, 2020) --&nbsp;
Like thousands of students across the country, Harlow Brooks has resigned herself to the fact that her first year of college will be different from what she expected.&nbsp;
The 19-year-old, who is beginning her film degree at the University of Southern California this fall, will be taking all of her classes online this first semester. Instead of meeting her fellow classmates walking from session to session at orientation, Brooks was introduced to them over Zoom.&nbsp;

But she&rsquo;s not giving up on one aspect of the college experience &mdash; living among her peers. Though&nbsp;USC is encouraging undergraduates&nbsp;to reconsider living on or close to campus this fall, Brooks and her friends have created a dorm-like existence on their own. Brooks&rsquo; pod of eight formed after individual members met each other in big Zoom sessions that got smaller and smaller and eventually turned into a group chat.&nbsp;
&ldquo;If we are going to be isolated from the world, it might as well be really fun and we have each other,&rdquo; Brooks said.

Richardson, TX (July 28, 2020) --&nbsp;RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, introduced an AI ChatBot earlier this year (click here to watch video) as part of its 24/7 Virtual Leasing Office. The ChatBot, named Paige, is part of RealPage Contact Center 3.0, designed to provide an additional communication option to customers who are working with limited or reduced onsite staffing without compromising the quality of their customer service or missing incoming leads.
Since its introduction in May 2020, thousands of units have adopted Paige as their AI Leasing Agent, and visit set ratios have remained the same for AI Chat as they were for live chat. Plus Paige continues to learn from successfully handling thousands of interactions. Paige started with the ability to answer common leasing questions such as availability, pricing and pet policies, and is now capable of answering questions about fees, local schools, rent specials, amenities and more. All at a cost that&rsquo;s 30% lower than live chat.
Part of this success is due to the uniqueness of RealPage&rsquo;s AI ChatBot, as the &ldquo;AI&rdquo; stands for Augmented Intelligence, which means that Paige will automatically warm-transfer a prospect to a live Contact Center agent if the request is outside Paige&rsquo;s scope of support. Prospects also have the option to request a live agent at any time. The AI chatbot, Paige, is backed up by live agents, providing prospects with full support in their channel of choice at their time of choice, so all questions can be answered and visits set in a single interaction.
&ldquo;Leasing-staff are spread more thinly today than ever, and AI supports the 24/7 Virtual Leasing Office by providing a cost-effective, quality solution for those who may not have considered using a contact center previously,&rdquo; said Jon Pastor, SVP of Consumer Solutions at RealPage. &ldqu...]]>

National Real Estate Investor (July 29, 2020) --&nbsp;The pandemic has shifted preferences when it comes to what renters are seeking when considering new apartments.
Before the emergency of COVID-19, a&nbsp;Greystar survey&nbsp;revealed the most wanted apartment amenities in the U.S. included swimming pools, multi-use common areas,&nbsp;pet-friendly features&nbsp;and soundproof walls. Other features that made it to the top of the survey were in-unit washers and dryers, balconies, hardwood floors and stainless steel appliances.&nbsp;Meanwhile, renters with a smaller budget preferred fewer amenities in exchange for lower rents.
But because of the pandemic, these amenities preferences are shifting. For renters who are not especially price-sensitive, &ldquo;space is king now that so many people are working from home,&rdquo; says Greg Willett, chief economist with RealPage Inc., a provider of property management software and services. He adds that some property owners report they are tweaking their model units to highlight a desk set-up or convenient work-from-home arrangement in order&nbsp;to attract new residents.

Multi-Housing News (July 14, 2020) --&nbsp;The onset of COVID-19 in mid-March could not have come at a more inopportune time for apartment operators. The sector&rsquo;s spring and summer peak leasing season was set to begin, but stay-at-home orders largely restricted apartment communities from providing tours to prospective tenants.
The initial fallout jolted the multifamily industry. By the end of March, year-over-year leasing volume had plunged 46 percent, and only in mid-May did it start to rebound, according to RealPage.

Orange County Register (June 23, 2020) --&nbsp;The Inland Empire, long the region&rsquo;s most affordable place to live, now comes with significant real estate sizzle.
The pandemic era has seemingly rearranged housing&rsquo;s local pecking order and elevated Riverside and San Bernardino counties to Southern California&rsquo;s new housing hot spot.
Just look at what Rick Beckwitt, CEO of homebuilding giant Lennar, told investors this week about new home sales:
&ldquo;In California, the Inland Empire is the strongest market,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;While the market took a hit in April, it came back strong in both May and June. The Inland Empire has always been the affordable alternative to the more coastal areas. With low mortgage rates, buyers had flocked back to the market. Most of these have been renters or frontline workers fighting the pandemic.&rdquo;

The Wall Street Journal (June 18, 2020) --&nbsp;Rents in San Francisco, the most expensive apartment market in the U.S., are tumbling as the city&rsquo;s vaunted tech sector sheds jobs and more tenants leave the city.
The apartment vacancy rate in San Francisco rose to 6.2% in May, according to apartment data firm&nbsp;RealPage.&nbsp;That&rsquo;s up from 3.9% only three months ago, after stay-at-home orders went into effect and more people in the city decided not to renew their leases.
San Francisco&rsquo;s median rent in May for a one-bedroom apartment was also down 9.2% compared with a year ago at $3,360 a month, according to listings platform Zumper. That was still the highest monthly rent of all major U.S. markets, Zumper said, and a reminder of how steeply rents in the city climbed before their more recent descent.

        <![CDATA[Yahoo! Finance (June 17, 2020) --&nbsp;It looks like landlords&rsquo; fears that tenants would not pay rent during the COVID-19 pandemic may have been overblown.
At the beginning of the novel coronavirus pandemic in mid-March, mass layoffs caused tenants to worry whether they could pay rent. But three months later, rent payments have stabilized, according to the National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC)&nbsp;survey&nbsp;of over 11 million apartments in the U.S., released June 16.
&ldquo;For the first time since this research for the National Multifamily Housing Council was initiated, there&rsquo;s an annual bump in rent payments across a significant block of metros,&rdquo; wrote Greg Willett, Chief Economist of&nbsp;RealPage, a Texas-based property management software company that contributed to NMHC research.

Dallas Morning News (June 15, 2020) --&nbsp;Apartment builders hit the brakes as the COVID-19 pandemic hit.
Nationwide multifamily building permits were at a four-year low in April, according to a new report by RealPage.
And construction starts across the country plunged 40% from April 2019 totals.
&ldquo;Multifamily permitting dipped to 373,000 units on a seasonally adjusted annual basis in April, the lowest annual rate since April 2016,&rdquo; RealPage&rsquo;s Chuck Ehmann said in the latest report. &ldquo;That number was down 12.4% from March and was 22.6% lower than the rate from the same period in 2019.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[TIME (June 12, 2020) --&nbsp;In the mid-1960s, Greta Arceneaux was a young mother of two in the midst of a divorce with a low-paying secretarial job and an old house in Los Angeles. Dreaming of a better life for her family, she took out a loan, tore down the aging home and used the land to build a five-unit rental complex that, she hoped, would serve both as a home for her and her children and a ticket to the middle-class.
&ldquo;I was a clerk with very little means, but a whole lot of guts,&rdquo; recalls Arceneaux, now 81. Her plan worked. Over the years, income from that modest rental complex enabled Arceneaux to help put her children and grandchildren through college, purchase a separate home for herself, and save for her retirement.
Then the coronavirus pandemic upended it all. When COVID-19 reached U.S. soil, killing tens of thousands of Americans and squeezing the economy, the federal government, states and municipalities issued a raft of rent protections, including months-long eviction moratoriums. While such policies were issued in good faith&mdash;they were designed to protect renters who have lost their incomes from losing the roofs over their heads, too&mdash;they have leveled a crushing blow to small, independent landlords, like Arceneaux, who rely on a handful of rental units for their livelihoods.

The Mercury News&nbsp;(June 11, 2020) --&nbsp;High unemployment, coronavirus worries and social upheaval have done little to prevent Bay Area residents from paying their rent.
Roughly 9 in 10 tenants in the Bay Area made at least some payment by the first week of June, according to a survey released Tuesday by real estate data firm RealPage. The payment rate fell from the previous year in the East Bay (down 1.8 percent), Santa Clara County (down 3.5 percent) and San Francisco and San Mateo County (down 4.8 percent).
Real estate professionals attribute the strong June performance to stimulus checks, enhanced unemployment benefits and tenants prioritizing their rents. &ldquo;The results continue to be good, with some little tiny fraying at the edges,&rdquo; said Doug Bibby, president of the National Multifamily Housing Council.

Overall, in the Seattle-Bellevue-Everett area, May asking rents&nbsp;were nearly the same as they were a year ago, averaging&nbsp;just under $1,900, whereas before the pandemic, rents were up nearly 5% year-over-year in the area.&nbsp;RealPage looks at effective asking rents, which include advertised discounts offered by landlords and property managers to entice new tenants to ink a deal, like one month of free rent.

That was one topic addressed during a recent webcast by RealPage Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a Texas-based real estate analytics firm, which provided an update on Charlotte's apartment market. RealPage's chief economist, Greg Willett, and market analyst, Adam Couch, led the market update.&nbsp;
During the presentation, Willett said there have been more than 55,200 apartments completed in the Charlotte metro since early 2010. That number represents inventory growth over the past 10 years of nearly 34%, a percentage that is the largest of the nation's major markets in this current cycle.

The Real Deal&nbsp;(June 8, 2020) --&nbsp;The average asking rent in Los Angeles County declined 3.3 percent in May year-over-year, the first major drop in rent since the Great Recession a decade ago.
Data from RealPage shows asking rent dropped to $2,254 for units of all sizes, according to the L.A. Times. The drop followed April&rsquo;s 0.8 percent year-over-year decline, the first since 2010.
The coronavirus pandemic resulted in a &ldquo;big dropoff in overall demand,&rdquo; according to RealPage chief economist Greg Willett.
The data comes with some caveats. RealPage&rsquo;s data reference only professionally managed apartments and not those owned by smaller mom-and-pop landlords, who typically charge lower rent.

The Wall Street Journal (June 5, 2020) --&nbsp;With the pandemic roiling real estate, strange things are happening to luxury-rental landlords and tenants. In some cities hit hard and early by the virus, such as Seattle, tenants are finding they have to move even faster to snap up upscale homes, while in others, such as Los Angeles, concessions are jumping. New lease signings have plummeted in New York, but agents in Miami say demand for luxury apartments is high.
To try to make sense of it, we dug into the data and details in major U.S. cities.&nbsp;RealPage,&nbsp;a provider of technology and analytics to the rental industry, analyzed the top 25% most expensive apartments in the most upscale buildings in these markets for list prices and concessions. Rental Beast, which currently collects data on eight million rental units, including &ldquo;mom and pop&rdquo;-owned buildings, examined gross rents and how many people are searching online for luxury apartments. We spoke to CEOs whose companies own thousands of units around the country, developers launching new projects, property managers, real-estate agents, landlords and tenants.

        <![CDATA[Yield Pro (June 3, 2020) --&nbsp;As cities, counties and states begin loosening lockdown orders and allowing non-essential businesses to open, apartment owners are weighing strategies to ride out the economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and finding slivers of positivity amidst the uncertainty.
Consumer sentiment in Q1 2020 saw the largest decline ever recorded in US history and the government responded with the largest ever stimulus payout, the $2 trillion CARES act, with the bulk of the funds allocated for individuals and small businesses and a slightly lesser amount to support large corporations and government.
One sure fact emerging from the pandemic is that the subsequent global economic downturn and US recession triggered by the medical crisis is much deeper than the recession of 2008.
RealPage, Inc. chief economist Greg Willett puts the situation into perspective. &ldquo;Nine million jobs were lost in 2008/09, but almost all jobs gained over the past decade were lost in one month in the current downturn,&rdquo; he said.

Stimulus payments, unemployment checks and local resources are providing temporary cushions. But there&rsquo;s a cutoff date ahead for a portion of unemployment payments, and it&rsquo;s unclear how long the economic crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic will last.

National Real Estate Investor (May 20, 2020) --&nbsp;Despite mass unemployment and underemployment, multifamily rental payments have held up far better than many industry experts expected amid the economic wreckage caused by the spread of the novel coronavirus.
More than 36 million people&nbsp;have filed for unemployment in recent weeks and millions of others working fewer hours and taking reduced pay. That&rsquo;s amid new estimates that&nbsp;real GDP growth for the second quarter will come in at -42.8 percent. Toss in a backdrop in which, as of December,&nbsp;69 percent of Americans had less than $1,000 in savings accounts, and it would seem to paint a bleak picture on the ability of renters to meet their obligations.

Crain's Chicago&nbsp;Business&nbsp;(May 20, 2020) --&nbsp;It&rsquo;s more than halfway through May, and many Chicago apartment landlords are feeling the same emotion: relief.
With&nbsp;sky-high unemployment,&nbsp;apartment owners feared tenants sidelined by the pandemic wouldn&rsquo;t be able to scrape together enough money for their May rent payment. But rent collections haven&rsquo;t fallen as much as they anticipated, an early sign that local apartment landlords could pull through the crisis with some bruises, perhaps, but not devastating injuries. Other sectors, like&nbsp;retail&nbsp;and&nbsp;hotels,&nbsp;are in bigger trouble.
&ldquo;Overall, May is okay,&rdquo; said Jeff Michael, chief operating office of Horizon Realty Group, which owns about 2,500 units, mainly on the North Side. &ldquo;We thought May was going to be substantially worse than April, but it has turned out to be similar.&rdquo;

Student demand for off-campus housing typically stays constant, especially at large public universities, because even during bad times college enrollment tends to remain stable.
Now, after a strong start before&nbsp;the coronavirus outbreak, many student housing facilities are trailing their year-ago rates for locking in new tenants as families await&nbsp;confirmation of campus reopenings.

In Florida, 85.5% of tenants paid their rent in full or in part between May 1 and May 6, a 4.2 percentage point drop compared with the 89.7% who paid during that time in 2019.


Lantana resident Victoria Alliji is among those Florida tenants so far unable to pay rent for May. The 25-year-old splits a $2,300-a-month apartment with two roommates, but they all lost their jobs at the beginning of the shutdown, she said.




None have received promised unemployment benefits and they are worried their landlord will quickly go to court to remove them when Gov. Rick DeSantis&rsquo; 45-day eviction moratorium expires on May 17.

HousingWire (May 12, 2020) -- During the height of the pandemic in April, apartment retention in the U.S. hit a record high, as renters were unwilling or unable to relocate, according to RealPage.
Of those renters with leases expiring in April, 57.9% decided to stay put.
But higher retention rates didn&rsquo;t mean rent revenues saw the same bounce, growing a slight 2.73% year over year through April, which RealPage said is the lowest rate since February 2011. This is due to the fact that landlords didn&rsquo;t capitalize on renewal demand.

        <![CDATA[RICHARDSON, Texas (May 11, 2020) --&nbsp;RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, reports that its AI Revenue Management systems delivered significantly increased revenue yield for clients despite extreme market volatility during the COVID-19 crisis. AI Revenue Management optimizes demand, credit, lease terms and leasing agent behavior by floor plan type. Its proven track record positions the platform as an indispensable tool for current and future periods of market uncertainty.
Using its benchmarking database, RealPage compared units that are revenue managed against the broader peer group in the submarket that they compete in for March and April. The engine produced 60 bps of incremental price yield on new leases and 80 bps of incremental price yield on renewal leases, as well as 100 bps of increased renewal percentage compared to submarket peers not using revenue management.&nbsp;
Says Keith Dunkin, RealPage SVP, Asset Optimization, &ldquo;RealPage AI Revenue Management works best when volatility is high. And uncertainty will be the new normal as we emerge from this crisis, so you&rsquo;ll need to be able to position your assets six months, 12 months out&mdash;not just today, 30, 60 or 90 days. AI Revenue Management ensures that you properly set rents so you can weather any storms and even come out ahead. We fortify that with our performance analytics benchmarking, which gives you real time visibility into the market. And our price advisory group provides high-touch service, so you execute with precision.&rdquo;
James Flick, head of Revenue Management at Camden Property Trust, offers his perspective: &ldquo;As a longtime leader in leveraging technology to drive performance, we know the importance of getting it right&hellip;all the time. We rely heavily on RealPage&rsquo;s Revenue Management system, analytics and team of advisors to identify opportunities to preserve NOI and drive revenue.&...]]>

The Covid-19 pandemic, which has killed more than 270,000 worldwide as of Friday, has shuttered businesses and entire industries across the nation, resulting in a very sudden economic recession. And while those currently out of a job have been buoyed temporarily with stimulus checks and enhanced unemployment benefits, it's only a matter of time before those measures run out.&nbsp;

        <![CDATA[RICHARDSON, Texas, (May 5, 2020) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP) a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, has added an AI chatbot (click here to watch video) to its 24/7 Virtual Leasing Office. The chatbot, part of RealPage Contact Center 3.0, is designed to provide an additional communication option to customers who are working with limited or reduced onsite staffing without compromising the quality of their customer service or missing incoming leads.
RealPage&rsquo;s chatbot includes Augmented Intelligence, delivering the highest quality AI by automatically warm-transferring a prospect to a live Contact Center agent if the request is outside the chatbot&rsquo;s scope of support. Prospects also have the option to request a live agent at any time.
"This is the first AI product in our industry to incorporate what&rsquo;s called Augmented Intelligence," said Jon Pastor, SVP of Consumer Solutions at RealPage. "This means it&rsquo;s engineered to complement rather than replace human intelligence, yet it&rsquo;s smart enough to answer many questions without human involvement. It&rsquo;s the only AI bot that has leasing agent calendar integration, allowing the prospect real-time access to pricing and floorplan availability, including the ability to self-schedule tours."
"Like the rest of our 24/7 Virtual Leasing Office, this offering supports front office staff during these unprecedented times," Pastor added. "It frees agents for high-value activities such as working directly with current residents while still capitalizing on the limited, precious lead flow that is coming in to the property."

Three of the Lone Star State&rsquo;s largest metro areas are well below the national average when it comes to the amount of apartment space each resident can expect when they move in, according to a recent report by national apartment research site RentCafe.
While apartments in Texas compare well to the national average in terms of actual size, many metro areas in Texas have more people living under one roof than other parts of the country, the report found.

Dallas Morning News (April 30, 2020) --&nbsp;So far, North Texas&rsquo; apartment market has shrugged off the worst impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Leasing activity in the Dallas-Fort Worth area is up from a year ago, according to a survey last week by Richardson-based RealPage.
&ldquo;Apartment leasing activity is suddenly back in a big way, at least for the moment,&rdquo; RealPage chief economist Greg Willett said. &ldquo;U.S. apartment leasing activity is roughly back to year-ago levels, after demand dropped drastically in late March to early April.&rdquo;

But industry leaders know that it is too soon to breathe easy.
That pessimism about May stems from the fact that the employment picture deteriorated starting in mid-March. During the past four weeks, 21 million Americans have filed unemployment claims as businesses in most states shut down amid stay-at-home orders.

More than 22 million Americans have filed for unemployment in recent weeks. Others are working on reduced hours. Large parts of the U.S. economy remain shut down as states have ordered non-essential businesses to keep closed.

Given the huge surge in job losses the past month following shutdowns to slow the spread of COVID-19, landlords are breathing a sigh of relief.

WFAA&nbsp;(March 31, 2020) -- There is a new change.org petition calling for a rent freeze in Dallas because of closures and financial uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 outbreak.

Richardson-based RealPage, which conducts research in this area, said in a recent article there's been a 15% drop in apartment website visits by potential new renters. And they predict interest in apartments will drop even further with so many people under stay at home orders.

GlobeSt&nbsp;(March 29, 2020) --&nbsp;Many of today&rsquo;s property managers and leasing agents have been only exposed to strong leasing demand if they entered the industry during the last decade, that is, after the meltdown of 2008 and 2009. But now, that has all changed and they&rsquo;ve been thrown into the deep end of the pool very abruptly.
Specifically, measuring same-store change on a rolling seven-day average, traffic to multifamily property websites are down 15% year-over-year and guest cards are down nearly 3%. Lead volumes will likely plummet further as more cities adopt shelter in place ordinances, according to a new report from RealPage, provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry.

But now, as more local cases of COVID-19 are reported and the city recoils into social distancing, the impact on Orlando&rsquo;s housing market is uncertain. A global recession seems inevitable, most experts say, and each day the outlook changes.

This includes the deployment of our Crisis Management Team, which is meeting daily to review the most current&nbsp;guidance from&nbsp;the&nbsp;Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other experts, to monitor and respond to developments at the federal, state and local government levels, and to make&nbsp;proactive&nbsp;adjustments to&nbsp;our preparedness and response&nbsp;plans.
RealPage&rsquo;s approach to business continuity is designed to mitigate the impact of four key threats &ndash; loss of facility, loss of staffing, loss of technology and loss of key vendors/suppliers and includes readiness actions in the event of a pandemic such as COVID-19.
Of note, RealPage is a global organization with over 7,000 teammates working in 27 locations around the world. The geographic diversity of our operations enables us to absorb many shocks that could impact specific cities or regions.

We also have strong relationships with our critical vendors/suppliers with which we have mapped dependencies and established mitigation plans should we need coverage during a business continuity event.
As part of our response to the COVID-19 threat, we are taking the following actions:

Activating Temporary Labor Teams (TLTs) in multiple locations within the United States and in our international locations. Each team will be able to operate autonomously and will be further cross trained on core operational execution and support.

RICHARDSON, Texas, (February 27, 2020) &#8212; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced the launch of AI Revenue Management, a multi-dimensional revenue optimization solution that executes across price, demand, credit and workforce to increase revenues. Early adopters in our beta program are generating 100-200 bps of incremental yield.
Keith Dunkin, SVP Asset Optimization
“Multidimensional optimization of revenue is the most significant breakthrough in revenue management since the introduction of YieldStar and LRO 15 years ago. Until now we’ve optimized price, however maximum asset performance requires aligning all four pillars of revenue management: Demand, Credit, Workforce and Pricing. The timing is perfect, as markets begin to soften our clients are looking for innovative capabilities to extend their run, and unlocking revenue across the four pillars is the answer.”
AI Revenue Management is designed to drive incremental yield through:

 Demand Optimization – sending demand triggers to stimulate more leads just when they are needed by bedroom type
 Credit Optimization – modulating credit acceptance criteria based on the imbalance of an asset’s supply and demand
 Amenity Optimization – for the first time, using statistical analysis of internal and external benchmarks of amenity pricing and unit level days on markets to improve revenue through reduced average vacant days and maximized pricing opportunities
 Workforce Optimization – leverages a bedroom type level exposure signal that prioritizes leads where there is overexposure, identifying the leads with the highest impact to revenue
 Rent Control – maximizing new lease pricing is more critical than ever in a rent controlled environment. Through a service compatible with both YieldStar and LRO, RealPage provides optimized pricing in adherence with current legislation

Multifamily Executive (January 13, 2020) &mdash; In the Mile High City, residential building continues to hit new peaks, with high annual job growth and a low unemployment rate. Several multifamily builders have continued to focus on the area&rsquo;s urban core, while others have spread to a handful of suburban locations.
Denver-based employers have added an estimated 29,200 jobs over the last year ending in September, down from 36,600 the previous year, for a 1.7% annual growth rate, according to Metrostudy. But although the job growth has slowed compared with a few years ago, announcements for business relocations and expansions, including retail giant Amazon&rsquo;s announcement to expand its Denver Tech Hub with a new office downtown, continue at a steady pace. As a result, the city&rsquo;s job base remains strong across sectors, especially in tech&shy;nology, finance, manufacturing, and energy, and the unemployment rate remains low at 2.6%, down from 3.3% in August 2018.

RICHARDSON, Texas, (June 26, 2019) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP) has announced the introduction of RealPage&reg; AI Screening, the first AI-based screening algorithm built specifically for the multifamily apartment rental industry.
The solution, developed by RealPage Resident Screening and Data Science teams, disrupts the paradigm of generic rules-based and statistical-based scoring models, enabling property management companies to identify high-risk renters with greater accuracy. This model is materially more effective than traditional screening solutions, with an average proven savings of $31 per apartment per year without negative impact to occupancy or revenue. RealPage AI Screening offers the potential to return hundreds of millions in financial losses back to property management companies across the industry.
&ldquo;Our new outcome-driven, machine learning model sets the bar at an entirely new level for prospect risk management in our industry,&rdquo; said Matt Davis, Senior Vice President of Financial Services at RealPage. &ldquo;We are delivering innovation to our customers based on the massive dataset of move out experiences that exist within RealPage. Additionally, our clients won&rsquo;t have to wait for innovation or improvements as this machine learning system will learn with each new move out experience. It&rsquo;s a miraculous outcome from the marriage of machine learning and RealPage&rsquo;s unique dataset. We are confident in our screening model&rsquo;s capabilities because it was tested and piloted by several industry leaders over the past six months, spanning more than 100,000 apartments.&rdquo;

That surge came after two years of rents growing slower than the national average, according to apartment data company RealPage.
In 2018, rents for multifamily apartments in the Triangle grew by 3.8% to an average rent of $1,105 per month, according to RealPage. The national average was 3.3%.
That growth is likely to continue if the Triangle continues to see strong job growth going forward.
There could be some longer-term consequences as well as fewer rental developments are typically built when the economy sputters, so when things are a bit rosier, there may be fewer units available to fill demand.

The new figures offer fresh insight into the years-long, multibillion-dollar experiment being waged by developers as they build more apartments in the city of Seattle this decade than in the previous half-century combined, betting on the long-term economic health of the region. Will enough renters eventually materialize to fill them, or will the city have a skyline of empty ghost apartments?

        <![CDATA[RICHARDSON, Texas, (March 26, 2019) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, announced today that it is launching software that automates the creation of month-end and year-end work papers. Senior vice president Alan James says RealPage Financial Close Management will save property management companies untold hours of drudgery at month-end and year-end.
&ldquo;Most companies still close using basic spreadsheets,&rdquo; said James. &ldquo;This means hours of copying and pasting trial balance data from the accounting system into spreadsheet tabs, reconciling the subsidiary ledgers to the trial balance and attaching supporting documentation. It&rsquo;s a shame that people are still doing things this way in the age of modern software.&rdquo;
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re not the only vendor to come out with software that helps automate closes,&rdquo; he added, &ldquo;but what&rsquo;s been missing is an integration with the accounting system&mdash;without that it&rsquo;s a half-solution at best.&rdquo;
RealPage Financial Close Management was engineered to execute workpapers at the click of a mouse. It eliminates the error-prone, manual back and forth between the accounting system and sub-ledgers; the data is placed in the appropriate sub-ledgers and reconciled to the trial balance. All supporting documents are attached to the appropriate sub-ledgers.
Workflow management is also incorporated for tracking and documenting the flow from preparer to reviewer to approver. It enables preliminary and final packages to be generated throughout the month for ongoing reconciliation, and the color coding of data tabs to indicate whether they are reconciling.
Unlike with a spreadsheet, property management companies can now show owners and auditors a verifiable review process, with compliance and internal controls.
&ldquo;What you end up with is a complete history of closes with all data, workflows and documen...]]>

        <![CDATA[GLOBEST.COM (FEBRUARY 27, 2019) &ndash; Technology plays a critical role in attracting and holding on to good people, as the folks of RealPage explain.
It&rsquo;s hardly news anymore that the commercial real estate industry is behind the eight ball when it comes to hiring and retention. What is news to many is that technology can play a major role in winning the war for talent.
That&rsquo;s Perry Levine&rsquo;s take on the industry&rsquo;s human resource crunch. Levine, industry principal for Dallas- based RealPage, sees a serious disconnect between the focus of senior management in commercial real estate and the career paths of the up-and-coming generation of employees. And it&rsquo;s a problem that must be addressed in order to retain employees for more than the two years of a typical millennial&rsquo;s stay. &ldquo;You train someone for six months and they&rsquo;re gone 18 months later,&rdquo; Levine says. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s a terribly inefficient model for a workforce.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[REALTOR.COM (FEBRUARY 21, 2019) &ndash; Renters won&rsquo;t be spared by a recession
Cash-strapped tenants hoping for a rent break likely won&rsquo;t get lucky even if the economy does start to slump. Rent price growth is likely to slow or even stall as fewer folks are going to be dropping big bucks on housing, says Greg Willett, chief economist at RealPage, a property management technology and analytics company focused primarily on rentals. But it&rsquo;s not likely to fall.
The exception is the luxury market, where landlords will have the most trouble finding tenants.
&ldquo;Luxury will feel the pain first,&rdquo; says Willett.
There could be some longer-term consequences as well as fewer rental developments are typically built when the economy sputters, so when things are a bit rosier, there may be fewer units available to fill demand.

Greg Willett, chief economist for property management software firm RealPage, says the move would be more or less unprecedented.
&ldquo;Turning down the creation of thousands of high-paying jobs is rare, if not completely unprecedented,&rdquo; Willett said. &ldquo;Cities generally chase those opportunities, evidenced by the hundreds of initial bids for Amazon HQ2. It&rsquo;s not unusual for there to be some complaints about the magnitude of incentives offered in attracting big employers, but objections generally don&rsquo;t come from within the staff of government officials.&rdquo;

In fact, a new report from RealPage shows that apartment resident retention (renters electing to renew their lease after its initial term expires) hit an all-time high last year, with nearly 53% of renters choosing to renew their leases.
According to RealPage&rsquo;s report, apartment resident retention jumped to 52.5% last year, meaning that in the country&rsquo;s 50 largest markets, when renters&rsquo; initial leases came up from renewal, 52.5% of them chose to renew.
That&rsquo;s an all-time high for resident retention rate, climbing from 51.7% in 2017, and besting the previous high, which was set in 2015.

Last year was an outlier because of Hurricane Harvey&rsquo;s impact on the market. The area experienced strong job growth, but toward the end of the year short-term renters who had been temporarily displaced by the hurricane moved back into their homes or bought new ones.
&ldquo;There were people moving in, but basically they were a replacement for people moving out and going back to the single-family market,&rdquo; said Greg Willett, chief economist at RealPage. The real estate data firm, based in Richardson, released a report last week ranking Houston last among major markets in several key apartment performance metrics in 2018.
Still, he&rsquo;s optimistic for 2019, citing healthy projected job growth and a reasonable number of units under construction.

The average Bay Area asking rent grew 4 percent in the fourth quarter from the same period in 2017, its fastest pace in almost three years. But it&rsquo;s still not close to the stratospheric rates that persisted from 2011 through 2015, when they often reached into the double digits.
Bay Area rents are expected to grow a little more slowly this year, thanks to an expected increase in new apartment completions.
&ldquo;The demand is there, but it&rsquo;s tough to digest that much new supply at once, especially given the luxury price point for pretty much all of that product,&rdquo; said Greg Willett, chief economist with RealPage.

        <![CDATA[THE WALL STREET JOURNAL (JANUARY 7, 2019) &ndash; Developers are slated to complete in 2019 the most new units in about three decades
Landlords are expected to have a tough time raising rents this year as a crush of new apartments hits the market, ending a brief reprieve when the market picked up late last year.
A strong jobs backdrop and sluggish home sales led to a pickup in rental growth during the third and fourth quarter. The stronger second half helped stabilize the rental market after a couple of years of slowing growth and generous concessions to tenants.

(NASDAQ: RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, has announced that value-add multifamily real estate investment firm CONTI Organization has deployed the RealPage Investment Accounting platform. CONTI&rsquo;s portfolio includes 29 properties comprising approximately 7,500 units.
&ldquo;We needed consolidated financial reporting to track returns and income allocations, while also automating our consolidations and capital transaction processing to drive staff efficiency,&rdquo; explains Emily Liu, Controller at CONTI. &ldquo;We have a long-term mindset and invest in technology that supports our growth while enhancing the client experience &ndash; which are critical to our success at CONTI.&rdquo;
Lui also says integrating the RealPage Investment Accounting platform will allow CONTI to continue delivering the kind of service and performance its investors expect for the next 10+ years.
&ldquo;The RealPage Investment Accounting platform is the perfect fit for CONTI, a growing middle market real estate investment company looking to leverage new technology to get an edge,&rdquo; said Alan James, Senior Vice President of Asset and Investment Management at RealPage. &ldquo;In addition to answering their need to consolidate financial reporting and automate tasks they&rsquo;re handling manually, the software will give CONTI a powerful lens into property performance that will improve decision-making.&rdquo;
James added: &ldquo;We&rsquo;re seeing more and more companies like CONTI recognize that exploiting technology is often a more effective way to boost NOI than digging for additional onsite cost savings and revenue enhancement.

        <![CDATA[FORBES (DECEMBER 3, 2018) &ndash; Renters looking to save on their monthly costs might want to consider a move&mdash;and fast. According to a new analysis, apartment bargaining power goes up in the winter, especially in colder markets.
Recent data from RealPage, a property management solutions company based outside of Dallas, shows that apartment rents tend to drop toward the end of the year, remaining relatively flat through the next quarter. This gives renters increased bargaining power on their monthly costs.
This leverage is especially apparent in bigger markets with low temperatures&mdash;places like Milwaukee, Chicago, Indianapolis, and Boston.
&ldquo;The largely flat rents seen in fourth quarter and first quarter reflect that relatively few renters move in that time period,&rdquo; said Greg Willett, chief economist at RealPage. &ldquo;Cold weather makes the moves more difficult, and households are busy during the holiday season.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[RealPage has reached a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission resolving all matters raised by the previously disclosed FTC investigation of RealPage&rsquo;s tenant screening solution. Under the settlement, RealPage will pay $3.0 million to the FTC and agreed to continue to comply with the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The settlement, which takes the form of a Stipulated Order, resolves the matter with the FTC, and does not require any changes to RealPage&rsquo;s current business practices.
During its investigation, the FTC questioned the accuracy of a minuscule fraction of RealPage&rsquo;s screening report results. The FTC&rsquo;s investigation centered on certain &ldquo;soft&rdquo; matching practices for consumers with common last names. The FTC was unable to identify any prior industry or regulatory guidance or other clear legal precedent that RealPage should have followed. No judicial findings of fact were made and, as set forth in the Stipulated Order, RealPage makes no admission of wrongdoing. All of the practices identified by the FTC predated RealPage&rsquo;s release of innovative new matching logic in September 2017.
We were disappointed that the FTC singled out RealPage for an issue that has confronted the entire screening industry, namely how to match applicants with common last names to public records when most courts do not make social security or driver&rsquo;s license numbers available as part of those records. We believe our newest matching technology provides market-leading accuracy in spite of these challenges. While we disagree with the FTC&rsquo;s assertions, we agreed to settle this matter in order to avoid the expense and distraction of litigation.
For additional information about certain financial effects of the settlement, please see the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by RealPage with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 16, 2018.]]>

        <![CDATA[THE SEATTLE TIMES (OCTOBER 12, 2018) -Yes, the rental market has cooled way down recently as more apartments open. But only after rents here soared 155 percent over the last two decades, making Seattle and its suburbs one of the most expensive places in the country to rent an apartment.
There&rsquo;s been nothing but good news this year for Seattle-area renters, who have seen rent prices freeze while they get more and more open apartments to choose from and various perks like a free month&rsquo;s rent offered by landlords.
But that doesn&rsquo;t mean Seattle is suddenly a utopia for apartment hunters.
Just the opposite: Seattle remains one of the priciest places in the country to rent. The lack of rent increases in 2018 comes only after seven straight years of large rent hikes that have made Seattle unaffordable to anyone not making decent money. Rents have grown even faster than home prices locally.
And the reality is that rents are never going to plummet back to the days when you could get a sweet spot on Capitol Hill for a thousand bucks a month. It might be wishful thinking to hope for rents to drop more than a little, since that virtually never happens.

        <![CDATA[CURBED SEATTLE (OCTOBER 8, 2018) &ndash; Another report shows rental costs slowing way down, but the lowest-cost rentals are still in high demand
Last month, we reported on analysis from Zillow that showed that rent was starting to slow down, with a slight decrease in median rent in the metropolitan area year-over-year. The catch: That decrease was mostly concentrated in high-end, already-expensive rentals.
A quarterly report from Realpage released in late September tells a similar story: high vacancy and slowing prices at the top end, with high demand and high prices at the lower end. While Realpage&rsquo;s report didn&rsquo;t show a decrease, the annual change from the third quarter of 2017 to the third quarter of 2018 was just 1.7 percent, but again, largely influenced by what&rsquo;s happening with newer, higher-end apartments.
&ldquo;Rents for luxury product slipped a little bit over past year,&rdquo; said Jay Board, content manager at Realpage, over email. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s primarily driven by intense apartment construction in the urban core.&rdquo;

&ldquo;We looked at four other companies that offer portfolio management solutions, but RealPage was far and away the most sophisticated, easy to use and customizable,&rdquo; said Brett Rush, a managing member at Walker Reynolds. &ldquo;It also offers the most options not only for monitoring your portfolio, but for data analytics and trend analysis. And we expect to gain a lot of back office efficiency from it.&rdquo;
Rush said another significant advantage is integration between RealPage&rsquo;s Investment Accounting solution (which the firm will also be using) and its Property Asset Management (PAM) software. In 2016, RealPage introduced specialized investment accounting software designed to provide clients a single, centralized accounting platform for all functions related to real estate investing, regardless of asset class.
&ldquo;Walker Reynolds was very visionary in their selection process,&rdquo; said Alan James, Senior Vice President of Investment Management, Accounting and Commercial at RealPage. &ldquo;The company recognized that they wanted back office efficiency to scale their business, but that real estate investing and management is run by data and reporting. PAM will be paramount to their system strategy, and help them execute that strategy by getting the right data in the hands of the right people.&rdquo;
Rush also praised the software&rsquo;s centralized access to data used in decision making. &ldquo;This software gives us a central location for all our investment data so we can spend our time on analysis instead of busy work like collecting and updating spreadsheets,&rdquo; he explained. &ldquo;Our time is too valuable to spen...]]>

        <![CDATA[HOUSING WIRE (JULY 27, 2018) &ndash; Changing regulatory climate, burdensome bad debt and increased efficiency are all reasons property managers eschewing traditional security deposits.
A security deposit alternative is essentially the replacement of a standard security deposit with a one-time premium that covers losses in the event that a resident leaves a unit in shambles or walks out on his or her lease prematurely.
Employing a security deposit alternative does two main things: eliminates bad debt and lowers move-in costs.
According to Tom Schickel, vice president and general manager at DepositIQ, a subsidiary of RealPage, multifamily operators will continue to show interest in security deposit alternatives as the old way passes away and more municipalities put restrictions on how much properties can take for a security deposit. The most recent example comes from New York City where Comptroller Scott Stringer has been kicking around the idea of implementing a one month&rsquo;s rent maximum for security deposits. This adds complexity to a property manager&rsquo;s job, and security deposit alternatives have quickly established themselves as a viable solution for the added complexity.
&ldquo;If you take the current standard refundable deposit, from an owner&rsquo;s standpoint, you are taking the deposit; you are depositing it into the bank; you are having to pay interest in a lot of jurisdictions, refund or return interest, sometimes on an annual basis even if the resident still lives there; and then the vast majority of the time you&rsquo;re returning the deposits,&rdquo; Schickel told HousingWire.

The new offering, which is launching after successful pilot and Beta programs with existing RealPage clients, is expected to provide apartment owners and operators with a comprehensive technology platform to effectively manage short-term rentals. The platform is intended for properties that want to allocate between 5 and 30 units to short-term rentals and cannot afford on-site staff to manage the hospitality experience.
KigoHospitality has been deployed at 45 apartment units in a JPI property, known as the RealPage Suites, located near RealPage headquarters in Richardson, Texas. Clients interested in evaluating KigoHospitality will be attending a series of KigoHospitality Workshops that begin by experiencing KigoHospitality in the RealPage Suites.
Steve Winn, Chairman and CEO of RealPage&ldquo;Apartment owners with only a few units available for short-term rentals do not have the infrastructure to support a great guest experience and the systems to efficiently handle guest screening, insurance, agreements, taxes, regulations, cleaning services, access control and 24-hour contact center services.

        <![CDATA[THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH (JULY 8, 2018) &ndash; Apartment rents continue to climb in central Ohio, according to July reports from apartment listing services.
At the start of the month, rents were up from 0.5 percent to 11.5 percent over last year, according to Abodo, ApartmentList and Zumper. The real-estate data firm RealPage pegs the rent increase at 3.5 percent over the past year, among the 10 highest bumps in the country.
The median rent for a two-bedroom apartment ranges from $950 (ApartmentList) to $1,070 (Zumper).
Despite the increases, all three studies report that Columbus rents remain lower than national averages.

Good news for owners of residential properties: Jacksonville is seeing some of the highest increases in home prices and rental rates in the nation, according to two reports released last week.
First American Financial Corp.&rsquo;s Real House Price Index for Jacksonville rose 14.3 percent from April 2017 to April 2018, the third-highest increase in the country.
The only markets with bigger year-over-year increases were San Jose, California, at 23.9 percent, and Las Vegas at 18.2 percent.
Meanwhile, a report by real estate technology and analytics firm RealPage Inc. found the monthly effective rent for an apartment in Jacksonville rose at an annual rate of 4.9 percent in the second quarter, also the third-highest increase.
Only Orlando, with a 6.6 percent increase, and again Las Vegas, with a 5.8 percent increase, rose more.
Of course, good news for property owners isn&rsquo;t so great for people searching for a place to live.

It is a great time for anyone looking to rent an apartment: vacancy rates are rising and there are little or no rent increases in many major cities.
For landlords, though, the U.S. apartment market suffered its worst spring since 2010, near the depths of the housing crisis. Driving this dynamic is a flood of new apartments and weakening demand.

        <![CDATA[NATIONAL REAL ESTATE INVESTOR (June 15, 2018) &ndash; Lazy rivers, tanning beds, rock-climbing walls&mdash;resort-style amenities in student housing may be falling out of fashion as the sector faces demographic changes and lingering supply-demand imbalances.
Some companies that provide student housing say they have seen a shift away from over-the-top amenities that were popular with off-campus renters a few years back. Instead, there has been an increasing shift toward amenities that reflect a focus on studying, health and fitness and the ride-sharing economy.
&ldquo;We are seeing a push towards more useful amenities,&rdquo; says Adam Byrley, COO of The Preiss Company, an off-campus student housing provider headquartered in Raleigh, N.C.
Several years ago, when student-housing construction was at its peak, there was a push among developers to outcompete each other and provide the most creative and over-the-top amenities, says Taylor Gunn, student housing director at Axiometrics, a RealPage company.

Princeton has been using RealPage&rsquo;s property websites since late 2016. More recently, the company retained the services of the RealPage Contact Center for missed and after-hours calls, and RealPage Accounting for its home office and all sites.
&ldquo;We were very happy with the website and contact center solutions, so RealPage was in the mix when we were looking to replace our accounting software,&rdquo; said Princeton Director of Operations Amy Alcala. &ldquo;We wanted something more user-friendly and intuitive than what we had, and we looked at various alternatives over a period of about three years before choosing RealPage.&rdquo;
Alcala says the RealPage Accounting support team answers questions quickly and takes user suggestions seriously as they plan and implement new product features. &ldquo;The choice and implementation of a core solution, such as accounting, is only the beginning of an ongoing relationship,&rdquo; she added. &ldquo;The support is almost as important as the product itself, and you need people you can count on to respond quickly when you&rsquo;re confused or challenged with an issue. I have a great team on the RealPage side.&rdquo;

But almost all of the apartments are being built for people who can afford quartz countertops, rooftop bars, concierge service for Amazon deliveries and remote-controlled stoves.
Almost nothing is being built for working class folks or recent college graduates moving to the area for an entry-level job.
Since 2010, 16,460 apartment units have been built in the Fort Worth area, according to RealPage, a real estate data company. But only 4 percent of these new units &mdash; a lowly 710 apartments &mdash; are now priced below the area&rsquo;s average rent price of $1,093 per month.

        <![CDATA[ILLINOIS REAL ESTATE JOURNAL (May 15, 2018) &ndash; Lease-up concessions remain common in top development markets, according to research by RealPage, a provider of comprehensive property management software solutions. Among the top 15 markets that RealPage looked at, Chicago came in sixth, with reported concessions of 7.4 percent in March.
These 15 markets&mdash;which combined have received roughly half of all new supply delivered in the U.S. since 2010&mdash;are witnessing larger than average giveaways during this cycle. As annual apartment completion volumes remain at their highest point in more than three decades, the flood of new units to the market is broadening the options for prospective renters. In this more competitive leasing environment, it should be no surprise that rent concessions designed to entice renters are commonplace at lease-up properties.
Nationally, the share of apartments offering rent discounts has actually reduced, driven by a shift away from the practice in recent years among stabilized properties. For properties in lease-up, however, the drive to fill as many units as quickly as possible has led to more concessions among this segment of the rental market.

It wasn&rsquo;t all that long ago that a month of free rent&mdash;and especially two months free rent&mdash;was extremely rare, if not unheard of, with Atlanta&rsquo;s new crop of top-shelf apartment communities.
Now, per a recent national market analysis, rent concessions are not only the new normal in Atlanta, they&rsquo;re more normal here than any other major city.
It&rsquo;s no surprise that Atlanta ranks among the 15 cities to have received nearly half of all new apartment supply delivered across the U.S. in this long development cycle, which dates back to 2010.
But among those markets, metro Atlanta leads the pack in terms of average rent discounts of 9.1 percent as of March, which translates to more than one month&rsquo;s free rent, according to RealPage, a provider of property management software solutions.

It&rsquo;s better than most public housing, he says, although the rooms are modest and the ground floor not always secure.
Caldwell and his wife Peggy Ogburn, who&rsquo;s also retired and disabled, receive government benefits totaling $2,071 a month. From that, they pay $574 in rent. Theirs is among the nearly 125,000 low-income households in Georgia that receive federal rent subsidies from HUD &mdash; the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

More than twice as many rental units will be built here this year than last year, about 1,600 in all. That puts Sacramento at the top of the growth-rate list among the 50 largest cities, ahead of Los Angeles, Denver and Providence, according to data from RealPage, a national real estate data company.
Though Sacramento is expected to have a greater percentage increase &mdash; 137 percent &mdash; Los Angeles will have far more units constructed in pure numbers at 14,000. No other California city made the top 10.

(NASDAQ: RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, announces that WinnResidential, the nation&rsquo;s 5th largest multifamily manager, has elected to replace multiple software providers with the RealPage platform.&nbsp;
Operating more than 550 properties across 22 states and Washington, D.C., WinnResidential&rsquo;s decision to deploy the platform in more than 60,000 housing units was driven by the complexity of their environment and RealPage&rsquo;s innovative features that provide benefits to the company.&nbsp;

&ldquo;Put simply, RealPage has the best cohesive software platform for our diverse housing portfolio and consumer-facing needs,&rdquo; said Patrick Appleby, President of WinnResidential. &ldquo;With a myriad of software products from different vendors, RealPage was the natural strategic partner to manage a transition this complex. Adaptability, deep industry expertise and flexibility were also critical differentiators for us in choosing the RealPage platform.&rdquo;

The business intelligence platform allows integrated access to all data from all of WinnResidential&rsquo;s sites, saving hundreds of hours normally spent accessing information. In addition, the property management solution confers the power to track all layers of government subsidies, positively impacting all of the company&rsquo;s affordable housing properties.&nbsp;
WinnResidential also had a unique requirement as they needed to upgrade to RealPage&rsquo;s new platform methodically, leveraging their existing third-party accounting software until the implementation process was complete.

        <![CDATA[CNBC (February 16, 2018) &ndash; Scan the downtowns of the nation&rsquo;s largest cities, and you are likely to see a staggering array of cranes.
Most of them are helping to build luxury apartment buildings. In fact, multifamily construction is now at a 40-year high; the trouble is, developers are putting up the wrong kinds of buildings. The luxury market is largely overbuilt, while there is a shortage of affordable rental housing, and developers are hamstrung by the now record-high cost of construction.
Apartment completions in the 150 largest U.S. cities jumped to 395,775 units in 2017, beating 2016 production by a staggering 46 percent and more than doubling the long-term average, according to RealPage, an apartment management software and data company. Luxury, upscale buildings accounted for between 75 and 80 percent of the new supply in the current cycle.
&ldquo;It&rsquo;s really tough to deliver product at those lower price points. The cost of land, the cost of building materials, the cost of labor. It&rsquo;s really about the same regardless of what product you&rsquo;re doing and it&rsquo;s just tough to make a deal work financially if you&rsquo;re going toward that middle-market price,&rdquo; said Greg Willett, chief economist at RealPage.

        <![CDATA[AUSTIN-AMERICAN STATESMAN (February 11, 2018) &ndash; Rents for new leases in Austin dropped 0.7 percent last year, said Greg Willett, chief economist for RealPage, a real estate technology and analytics firm based in Richardson. Among the 50 metro areas with the largest apartment counts, &ldquo;Austin is the only big market to register price cuts,&rdquo; Willett said.
Across the United States, average rents grew at a 2.6 percent rate last year, RealPage said, with the typical monthly rent now $1,330. Willett said that, although there&rsquo;s a lot of leasing competition among Austin&rsquo;s newly opened properties, rents continue to rise in the luxury segment, increasing 1.8 percent during 2017. In contrast, rents declined about 2 percent in the mid-tier to bottom-tier properties.

Last year, 364,713 units were completed in the 150 largest U.S. metros, more than doubling the long-term average and growing the U.S. apartment stock 2.1%.
The peak in completion volume was driven by 15 metros where construction has been particularly active in urban core areas, RealPage notes. Those 15 metros contributed roughly half of the nation&rsquo;s new units in the past year.

        <![CDATA[LONDON, United Kingdom (February 5, 2018) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, today announced that UK-based Moorfield Group, a leading UK specialist private equity real estate fund manager, selected its YieldStar&reg; revenue management solution for deployment across the Moorfield Funds build-to-rent (&ldquo;BTR&rdquo;) properties. Moorfield Group will be one of the first UK build-to-rent developers and managers to implement the YieldStar Revenue Management System in the UK.

&ldquo;At Moorfield Group, we focus on innovation and understand the importance of early adoption of key technologies and software to maximize our efficiency,&rdquo; said Heiko Figge, the company&rsquo;s Head of Hospitality, Leisure and Operations.
&ldquo;YieldStar allows us to manage our rental streams and offerings to maximize revenue, and captures historical data that enables us to accurately predict future letting trends. We see the early adoption of a sophisticated revenue management system as another sign of our commitment to the BTR space. We have extensive experience in the hotel sector and therefore the employment of a yield management system was an obvious next step as we will be bringing another 500 units to the market this summer.&rdquo;

Deployments will begin with The Keel, a 240-unit purpose convert BTR scheme in Liverpool, which represents a milestone as the first UK new-generation build-to-rent scheme completed outside London. Moorfield Group will also leverage YieldStar on its assets in Newcastle (The Forge) and Manchester (The Trilogy), which both open this summer.
Moorfield Group chose YieldStar based on its ability to support inventory management for the company&rsquo;s portfolio of properties.

&ldquo;In our review of other revenue management solutions, YieldStar became the obvious choice given its extensive experience and deployment in the US and the steps they have already take...]]>

Rents sometimes drop by a few bucks this time of year. But the latest quarterly drop is the biggest this decade by far, and amounted to a savings of about $50 a month for the average renter across the region.
In neighborhoods in and around downtown Seattle, the dip equates to an average of $100 in monthly savings for renters signing new leases.

&ldquo;Now we can just log in and have informed conversations with regional managers and owners without laboring over spreadsheets and reports and sending them back and forth,&rdquo; said Hines. &ldquo;We started by having just the asset team use BI, but soon we&rsquo;ll have everyone down to our site managers tapping into it to help in their own decision making, so it will benefit us at every level of our operation.&rdquo;

Hines says that site managers will be able to view the same data that regional and home office managers see, allowing them to better understand decisions passed down from above and to gain insights helpful in their own decision making.
PEM Real Estate Group also uses a host of additional RealPage products, such as Payments, Screening, Resident Portal, YieldSt...]]>

It took the couple a month of scouring online listings and vetting properties before they secured a four-bedroom house to rent for $2,800 a month in the Hidden Valley neighborhood of Santa Rosa.
Now, they have to start again &mdash; while picking up the pieces of a life reduced to rubble. De Seife and Holtan awoke in the middle of the night on Oct. 9 to the smell of smoke and were soon evacuated as fire roared toward the area, ultimately burning down their house. The family is bunking with friends south of San Francisco and weighing offers of assistance while trying to determine a more permanent living plan, which may ultimately mean leaving the state.

At least 345,000 apartment units are expected to come online this year, but will multifamily building continue at this breakneck pace? One way to determine this is to look at the number of multifamily permits cities are approving. Roughly 399,000 units were approved nationwide during the 12 months ending July 31, according to RealPage. This is down roughly 8% from this cycle&rsquo;s peak permitting period of the 12 months ending January 2016.

RealPage (NASDAQ: RP), a Texas-based software company that crunches data for landlords managing property, told Bloomberg this week that it found that median rent-to-income ratio &ldquo;has held steady at around 23 percent since 2010&rdquo; for the almost 6 million leases it manages.

That&rsquo;s certainly true at the extremes where, say, the typical two-bedroom in the Bay Area suburb of San Mateo, California., clocks in at $4,300 a month. More broadly, the supply of new housing isn&rsquo;t keeping up with demand, pushing rents up in cities across the country.

With over 50,000 rental units under construction, Dallas-Fort Worth has been the top apartment building market in the country in recent years. But a significant slowdown in permits for new apartments this year may herald a decline in building cranes on our horizon.
For the 12-month period ending in July, Dallas-area apartment permits were down almost 20 percent from a year earlier, according to data from Richardson-based RealPage. Dallas and Atlanta were the only two top-10 U.S. apartment markets to see a year-over-year decline in building permits, RealPage reports.

It still remains to be seen how much property damage and economic loss Hurricane Harvey will have caused in and around Houston once the storm has finally left the metro. The region is still focused on getting people to safety and finding shelter for displaced residents.
Houston, the fourth-most populous city in the country, has roughly 6.5 million people living in its metro area. It also has a huge supply of apartments&mdash;about 662,400 units as of mid-2017, according to RealPage calculations.

(NASDAQ: RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, announces that Mercy Housing, Inc., one of the nation&rsquo;s largest nonprofit affordable housing organizations with regional offices across the U.S., has chosen to adopt RealPage&rsquo;s property management software and compliance software solutions to manage multiple subsidy layers for its entire asset portfolio of more than 22,255 units at its 325 properties.
With approximately 90% of Mercy Housing&rsquo;s properties&ndash;consisting of anywhere from two to as many as eight or more subsidy layers&ndash;the company initially had multiple complicated structures in place, limiting site staff&rsquo;s ability to accomplish business objectives using only their general ledger software.
&ldquo;The challenges to streamline Mercy Housing operations are unique,&rdquo; said Jane Graf, President and CEO of Mercy Housing, &ldquo;and site staff was forced to manage all subsidy layers outside of two or more manually and via spreadsheets. As we evaluated software providers, we knew we needed more than just an upgrade. We needed the best, and RealPage stood out as a software provider with a solution that could help our staff concentrate on what they do best: help residents.&rdquo;
Mercy Housing has adopted a single, completely integrated software solution from RealPage that is designed for flexibility around its needs &ndash; from managing property waitlists, reporting around budgeting and forecasting, as well as consolidations and elimination, debt management, integrated screenings, customizable dashboards, annual re-certifications, managing unpaid claims, and pre-qualifying candidates.
And RealPage has made it easy to operate.

Based in Rockville, Maryland, CAPREIT manages apartment communities across the United States in various capacities &ndash; as full owner, partner and fee manager. Its portfolio includes conventional, senior and affordable properties.
COO Miguel Gutierrez explained that it had become clear his company&rsquo;s effectiveness was being limited by its software mix provided from various vendors. &ldquo;We hire the best people with top skills, but found they were spending too much time on inefficient processes, paperwork and menial tasks rather than on customer-oriented and value-add activities,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;It became essential for us to free their time by speeding these tasks&mdash;that&rsquo;s what good software is all about.&rdquo;
Gutierrez also noted a disconnect between company financial and operational data, leaving management unable to optimize their decision-making. &ldquo;Financial and operational reports were completely separate, and we needed a way to bring this information together for a multi-dimensional view of our business to help tune-up operations,&rdquo; he said.
In choosing RealPage, CAPREIT expects to benefit from the close integration a single-vendor solution can deliver. &ldquo;When we began the review, we weren&rsquo;t expecting all the software we needed to come from a single company,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;But RealPage put together a package that made a lot of sense from a functionality perspective,&rdquo; Gutierrez explaine...]]>

        <![CDATA[RICHARDSON, Texas, (June 8, 2017) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading global provider of software and data analytics to the real estate industry, shares that Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed Senate Bill 873 into law. The new law, which modifies the Texas water code, will benefit apartment owners, operators and their residents throughout the State of Texas.
Regulatory professionals at RealPage, Inc. worked closely with the Texas Apartment Association to draft the legislation, provide testimony at legislative hearings, and educate legislators on the benefits of the bill. RealPage also engaged its own outside legislative and regulatory counsel at Gardere Wynne Sewell LLP to complement the efforts of the professionals at the TAA.
This law brings the Texas water code into line with other Texas statutes that underwent tort reform over the last two decades. In recent years, Texas apartment owners faced a deluge of lawsuits from lawyers who were twisting well-established definitions and practices in utility billing in an attempt to obtain the treasure-trove of exorbitant penalties contained in the former code. The new law eliminates the unjust incentives fueling this rampant lawsuit abuse and moves the regulation of water billing under the exclusive jurisdiction of the Texas Public Utility Commission which has the authority and experience to issue judicious penalties reasonably related to the level and nature of a violation. Residents will also benefit from a new streamlined online and telephonic complaint and hearing system as well as clarity in enforcement and interpretation of the law.
&ldquo;RealPage sincerely thanks everyone who worked on this legislation and we are grateful to the Senate and House bill authors, Senator Brandon Creighton and Representative Jim Murphy, for their leadership and commitment to preventing abuse of our legal system&rdquo; said David Monk, EVP &amp; Chief Legal Officer at RealPage. &ldquo;We are pleased with the passage of t...]]>

DFW rent prices are now averaging almost $1,100 a month, according to MPF Research. Add to that a vacancy rate of under 4 percent, and you&rsquo;ve got demand at an all-time high. The past year&rsquo;s demand total for apartments in North Texas jumped to 27,120 units, up sharply from the 2015 volume of about 17,000 units.

        <![CDATA[NMHC Launches New Non-profit Research Foundation to Expand Industry&rsquo;s Body of Research and Analysis
(August 24th, 2016) &mdash; Foundation raises $2.25 million towards initial $3 million fundraising goal
WASHINGTON, D.C. &mdash; A new foundation dedicated to apartment industry research has raised over $2.25 million in cash commitments from NMHC members to kick start the next generation of industry insight and analysis. Created by the National Multifamily Housing Council (NMHC), the new NMHC Research Foundation will address critical voids in apartment data and raise the industry&rsquo;s standard of performance.
&ldquo;As the multifamily industry grows in sophistication, so must the quality and breadth of our analysis,&rdquo; said NMHC President and CEO, Doug Bibby. &ldquo;The NMHC Research Foundation ensures that we&rsquo;re able to continue providing leading, actionable information for the apartment market and support our member businesses.&rdquo;
The non-profit 501(c)3 foundation will pursue unique and original research to fill gaps in knowledge about the multifamily sector and support NMHC&rsquo;s members. Research topics will span issues related to development and redevelopment activity, housing affordability, demographics, tax policy, zoning and land use, among others.
Significant funding from Founding Partners RealPage and Weidner Apartment Homes helped lift the NMHC Research Foundation off the ground. RealPage&rsquo;s $1.0 million commitment will come half in a $500,000 cash donation to be made over three years and half in access to the company&rsquo;s extensive databases and analytical capabilities. The Weidner commitment of $500,000 also will come over three years.
&ldquo;Access to information in an environment where ideas are openly shared and exchanged not only allows for rapid response to hot-button topics, but also supports the overall health of the entire multifamily industry,&rdquo; said Steve Winn, RealPage Chairman and CEO. &ldquo;RealPag...]]>

CARROLLTON, Texas (June 20, 2016) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services for the multifamily, commercial, single-family and vacation rental housing industries, announced that it launched a new Investment Accounting solution, designed to provide companies one single accounting platform with which to manage all functions related to real estate investing. The new platform is applicable to all real estate asset classes.
Investment Accounting manages transactions related to accounting for real estate investment vehicles. It was developed to help provide a best-in-class accounting solution for middle market real estate investment companies.
The Investment Accounting platform incorporates three distinct solutions:

Investment Accounting: Designed to help manage all types of capital transactions, automating calling for, collecting, distributing and recording capital activity. It also manages investor correspondence and reporting while tracking investment returns.
Advanced Consolidations: Consolidates accounting records and manages complex ownership structures of multiple subsidiaries to present consolidated financial statements for multiple sets of books for the parent company. Automated consolidation rules help reduce the closing cycle time.
Corporate Accounting: Enables real estate firms to simplify the process of allocating expenses and overhead from the corporate entity to investments and properties, and to manage financial reporting for business units not specific to a particular asset or investment vehicle.

This solution was created to address accounting, finance, and reporting challenges often confronted by middle market investment management firms. These firms commonly use spreadsheets and limited human resources to meet minimum requirements because the total cost of ownership of available alternative solutio...]]>

CARROLLTON, Texas (June 16, 2016) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services for the multifamily, commercial, single-family and vacation rental housing industries, announced that it has acquired substantially all of the assets of eSupply Systems, LLC and those of certain entities related to eSupply Systems. eSupply Systems is a San Antonio-based e-procurement software and group purchasing services company.
The addition of this group purchasing organization will provide increased purchasing power and highly competitive pricing structures for RealPage customers. The addition of eSupply Systems&rsquo; assets rounds out the company&rsquo;s spend management offering, by adding a powerful group purchasing service to an already robust eProcurement platform, a network of more than 10,000 vendors, a vendor credentialing service, and purchasing advisory service offerings.
RealPage initially will roll out the group purchasing service to its small and medium-sized customer base&mdash;the market segment that has traditionally not benefited from the buying power that larger organizations are able to command. At the same time, vendors benefit because this presents another opportunity to expand their customer base and offer customers easier access to more products at highly competitive prices.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re thrilled to be able to provide a whole new level of service to RealPage customers,&rdquo; said Jason Lindwall, senior vice president of spend management for RealPage. &ldquo;Together, with our well-established spend management platform and services, group purchasing will help ensure our customers in every asset class have one, powerful resource for maximizing operational spend.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[Partnership enables both parties&rsquo; ability to increase business and revenue
CARROLLTON, Texas (May 11, 2016) &ndash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading provider of on-demand property management software, announces that it is launching a new Value Added Reseller Partner program, centering on opportunities in commercial real estate solutions. This nationwide partner program will be available beginning in early May.
Mid-size commercial real estate companies have historically been under served by a lack of robust property management and accounting software solutions, or solutions that are too complicated or costly, provided by vendors that prefer to target top-tier companies. By offering a high-value product together with local service, RealPage will be better able to help property managers and owners of commercial real estate lower their total cost of software ownership.
&ldquo;The intention of our VAR channel is to accelerate the growth of our commercial enterprise solution, by extending our reach through companies that excel in the commercial software space,&rdquo; said Alan James, senior vice president, commercial, RealPage. &ldquo;The companies we are partnering with have tremendous knowledge in real estate and construction and with our solution and our resources, they will be able to grow their relationships with current customers, obtain new customers, and drive revenue through our program.&rdquo;
VAR partners will sell RealPage&rsquo;s commercial enterprise bundle, offering one of the best accounting platforms in the industry. In addition, the commercial suite includes property management, budgeting, document management, eProcurement and reporting functionality.
&ldquo;We feel fortunate to partner with RealPage to provide sales and service coverage of their products in the real estate market,&rdquo; said Scott Irwin, CEO, Aktion Associates, Inc. &ldquo;With an existing commercial real estate sales and service team of over 50 people, this is a natura...]]>

        <![CDATA[Debunks the myth that it inhibits a property management company&rsquo;s profitability
(April 11, 2016) &mdash; New research from the data science team at RealPage, a leading provider of property management software-as-a-service, validates that requiring residents to carry a renters insurance policy when leasing an apartment does not negatively affect revenues for property management companies. The study analyzed same-store leasing data from 2008 to present for hundreds of properties across the country that mandated renters insurance compared to those not mandating renters insurance.
While most properties already require that renters carry their own insurance, this requirement is often not enforced across entire portfolios. Some property management companies cite that the main reason they do not mandate renters insurance is the fear of diminishing revenue. This study proves this has no basis in fact and reconfirms that renters insurance provides huge benefits for property management companies and residents.
&ldquo;As we expected, making residents carry renters insurance has no negative financial impact to the property,&rdquo; said Rich Hughes, head of data science, RealPage. &ldquo;And by extension, we can infer that it does not inhibit the community&rsquo;s ability to lease apartments.&rdquo;
The research methodology of this study compared the revenue performance of properties that mandate renters insurance against the performance of similar properties that do not in the same markets, sub-markets and ZIP codes. In addition, it covers why residents avoid carrying renters insurance and how to debunk these myths.

Specifically, communities now average 50 to 200 Mbps per bed, with a few as high as 1 Gbps; residents now have an average of more than seven devices, with an average of 5.5 wireless devices; streaming video and gaming are the most prevalent applications; and wireless equipment needs to be upgraded every three to four years.&rdquo;

(October 15, 2015) &mdash; MPF Research&lsquo;s Vice President Greg Willett will serve as a panelist on the &ldquo;The Boomer Wars: Which Generation is Really Driving the Market?&rdquo; session at the RealShare Apartments 2015 Conference held October 21-22 in Los Angeles.
The conference&rsquo;s dynamic two-day agenda will address hot topics around the apartment market and focus on all aspects of the sector. With over 60 industry veterans poised to share their insights on how to position yourself and your organization to succeed in today&rsquo;s thriving market, and an abundance of networking opportunities with the industry&rsquo;s decision-makers, this is an event you won&rsquo;t want to miss!
In the session, the panelists will discuss how the multifamily industry is not yet prepared for the wave of demand that&rsquo;s set to hit the market. In looking at the demographic trends that are most impacting the industry, there are two forces at play. There are Millennials, or Echo Boomers, who will be entering the market in droves. However, this cohort has yet to mature and unless job and wage growth picks up, their strength as a consumer group won&rsquo;t surface for some time.There are also the Baby Boomers, who have much more disposable income than their younger counterparts and are expected to sell their homes and downsize to low-maintenance apartments. Yet with a cloudier homeownership climate and the retirement age being pushed back, just how many will be able to take advantage of the kind of lifestyle high-end apartments provide? Our group of experts will weigh the two groups to see which Boomers have the most bang, and what to expect for the multifamily market in the near to medium term.
Conference panelists include:David Swanson, Director, CohnReznick LLPBrad Cribbins, Chief Operating Officer, Alliance ResidentialErica Linn, Manager, Research &amp; Publications, YardiGreg Willett, Vice President, MPF Research]]>

(October 1, 2015) &mdash; MPF Research&rsquo;s Director of Analytics and Forecasts Jay Parsons will serve as a panelist on the &ldquo;The Nation&rsquo;s Under-the-Radar Markets&rdquo; session at the 2015 MFE Conference held October 5-7 in Las Vegas.
This year&rsquo;s conference focuses on defying gravity and how what goes up, doesn&rsquo;t have to come down. At the 2015 Multifamily Executive Conference&ndash;the apartment industry&rsquo;s most valuable educational and networking conference&ndash;the sector&rsquo;s top thought leaders will share insight on how to build a business that maintains velocity, trajectory, and visibility heading toward a cloudy future.
During Parson&rsquo;s panel, he along with other panelists, including Conor Wagner, Green Street Advisors, Jay Denton, Axio and Luis Meija, CoStar Group, will discuss secondary and tertiary markets are seeing a lot of new entrants. And pose the questions of where are those submarkets that, while far from the bright lights of the big city, will provide strong demand and outsized returns? What are some key considerations in finding high-growth, supply-constrained suburbs?

(September 15, 2015) &mdash; MPF Research was recently featured in two industry publications, GlobeSt. and Inman News, providing research and insights into reasons why residents are renewing their leases despite rents increasing.
Jay Parsons, director of analytics at MPF Research, tells GlobeSt., &ldquo;Renters are increasingly choosing to stay put and renew their leases in spite of rapidly rising rents and historically large levels of new supply, which logic would suggest would be driving down retention. And the fact that retention is still so strong speaks to the depth of demand for apartments and to the absence of any sort of affordability crisis in conventional, investment-grade apartments.&rdquo;
Get the full story on why tenants are staying:

GlobeSt.: &ldquo;MF Tentants Opt to Stay as Rents Rise&rdquo;
Inman News: &ldquo;More than Half of Renters Opt to Renew Lease Instead of Buy&rdquo;

Mr. Dunkin will speak during the &ldquo;Multi-family Sabermetrics: Are There Disruptive Analytics to be Had in Multifamily?&rdquo; session, which discusses:
Innovation &ndash; When will the multi-family industry adopt and use advanced metrics, similar to the way that baseball has sabermetrics? Baseball used to be driven by five fundamental statistics &ndash; ERA, wins, batting average, RBI&rsquo;s, and homeruns. While those statistics are still important, new advanced metrics have been created to capture a player&rsquo;s and a team&rsquo;s true value. Now they have WAR, BABIP, UZR, etc. Right now, old school statistics still rule the multifamily industry &ndash; occupancy, renewal rate, conversion ration, etc. What are some advanced disruptive metrics in multifamily that companies use to capture a more accurate depiction of a property&rsquo;s value?

Justin Alanis, CEO, Rentlytics, Inc.

        <![CDATA[Enables owners and managers to increase both nights booked and average revenue per night
(April 27, 2015) &mdash; Kigo, a leading provider of vacation rental booking and channel management solutions, introduces the release of a powerful new revenue management system that removes the need for manual analysis of rates, market research and the time-consuming process of changing rates, to help owners and managers reach higher occupancy and revenue per unit (RPU) with each booking.
Kigo Revenue Management is a sophisticated tool based off proven principles used by hotel and airline industries, but tailored specifically for vacation rentals. This user-friendly solution takes the guesswork out of setting the optimum rates for properties, by automatically adapting to real-time rental rates based on seasonality and market demand. This enables the highest possible price for properties to be achieved and, in some cases, has resulted in growth of more than 20 percent for nights booked and RPU.
&ldquo;We saw the need for an effective, easy-to-use revenue management system for the vacation rental market,&rdquo; said Rob K&auml;ll, senior vice president, Kigo. &ldquo;Kigo now offers both small and large companies a best-in-class solution that simplifies, enhances and manages all the nuances of rate optimization, helping owners grow their business, in some cases adding as much as $1,200 of additional management revenue per unit annually.&rdquo;
&ldquo;The time and cost saved by eliminating manual tasks is obvious, but this solution gives us a real advantage in the marketplace,&rdquo; said Andrew Campion, owner of The Apartment Medellin/First American Realty. &ldquo;Kigo Revenue Management helps us keep prices synchronized across all distribution channels and enables us to adjust rates automatically based on occupancy exposure, supply and demand, as well as other factors.

Later in 2014, RealPage acquired Kigo and has now combined the two platforms into a new, more robust solution available for license around the globe under the Kigo name.
The new Kigo solution includes more comprehensive marketing channel partnerships, easy reservation management tools, attractive website designs&mdash;and soon, eSignature along with an advanced revenue management tool. These enhancements are expected to deliver additional value to Kigo users by enabling them to manage a greater number of properties and maximize revenue.

(January 7, 2015) &mdash; On January 29, RealPage&rsquo;s social media specialist Jade Smith will discuss &ldquo;How to Cultivate Brand Advocacy&rdquo; at the Multifamily Social Media Summit  in Napa, Calif.
Her session will discuss the following:
Business Insider reports that Americans spend an average of 37 minutes daily on social media, a higher time-spend than any other major Internet activity, including email. And 60% or so of social media time is spent not on desktop computers, but on smartphones and tablets. There&rsquo;s no denying it&hellip;social media is here to stay and in a big way.But why is social media important? Because of the authentic relationships it can help you build between your brand and your audience. These relationships are the cornerstone to taking your brand from just another community to one that is accepted, sought after and most importantly, engaged with.This presentation shares the importance of how creating an engaged community at your property can cultivate brand advocates. It takes a deep dive into why brand advocates are important andhow you can build a community of them using best-in-class industry examples, and finally, we&rsquo;ll discuss how to measure social media ROI beyond likes and shares.Takeaways from this session include:

How apartment communities can create brand advocates among residents and prospects
How to effectively measure social media to prove ROI (qualitative vs. quantitative)
How to build a referral base, increase resident retention, and more using social media

(October 21, 2014) &mdash; In this Multifamily Executive article, &ldquo;Multifamily Economists React to Watt Announcement&rdquo;, the recent announcement by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Mel Watt about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac backing loans with as little as 3 percent down to help bolster the housing market is debated by economists specializing in the multifamily industry.
MPF&rsquo;s own Greg Willett stated &ldquo;While the affordability challenge is a factor holding back home purchase by first-time buyers, it isn&rsquo;t the only factor. Simple demographics probably are more important. The oldest Millennials are just now reaching the age when home purchase has been typical historically, and the group is waiting longer to marry, have kids and make other lifestyle changes that tend to trigger purchase. Plus, renting offers mobility in a shifting economy where job change is routine among young adults. We haven&rsquo;t changed the world for the apartment industry by slightly tweaking mortgage lending standards. To the slight extent that home purchase could accelerate, the impact on apartments appears likely to be neutral. Yes, some renters will be lost to purchase, but an improving for-sale market will support job formation that could spur additional renter household formation.&rdquo;

During Mr. Parson&rsquo;s session titled &ldquo;The Next Generation Renter&rdquo;, Mr. Parsons and other panelists will discuss how &ldquo;the family of the multifamily industry is changing as family formation is delayed for millennials and home ownership is often out of reach. Also, because of swanky student housing, the next generation renter also has a taste for amenities from an early age. Hear how the next generation of renter is affecting development, property management, technology requirements and leasing strategies.&rdquo;
Mr. Willett will be covering the economics of multifamily alongside two other panelists and together they will do a deep dive of &ldquo;the state of the multifamily market, answering the questions: what inning are we in for this cycle, and where are we headed for multifamily in the next 16-18 months. How will the midterm election affect commercial real estate and how will multifamily fare as other asset classes emerge from the great recession? Where are interest rates headed and how do family formation and job trends change the outlook across the nation?&rdquo;]]>

(September 22, 2014) &mdash; The Dallas Morning News once again turned to MPF Research for insights into trends the city is seeing regarding multifamily trends. In this article, &ldquo;High Uptown property prices pushing Dallas development to new urban neighborhoods,&rdquo; the reporter discusses how prime land prices have soared to extremely high pricing per square foot and fewer empty lots to build on, so commercial property companies are now looking at nearby neighborhoods.
To further discuss this new trend, MPF Research&rsquo;s vice president Greg Willett verified how successful Dallas builders have been at expanding to new areas, but that we should also be cautious about outpricing renters.

The partnership also enables Zillow to offer RealPage&rsquo;s near real-time pricing and availability information for multifamily listings that use RealPage products and services. Zillow will also offer to all multifamily marketers, using their services, the RealPage Live Agent Service, which leverages the RealPage Contact Center solution, the leading call center for the rental housing industry. RealPage estimates that its contact center solution enables property owners and managers to increase lead-to-lease conversion rates by twice as much as clients not utilizing a contact center.
Steve Winn, CEO of RealPage, commented, &ldquo;We are very pleased to be partnering with Zillow as this relationship will benefit both RealPage and Zillow users alike. We will continue to market the MyNewPlace Premium service, which complements the Zillow listings and gives owners and managers even more contacts. By adding pricing, unit availability and, most importantly, a live agent on the other end of each phone and email contact, we are confident that Zillow users will realize increased lead-to-lease conversion rates.&rdquo;

Following the success of its iPhone® app last August, MyNewPlace continues efforts to help renters find a place they love through the iPad app’s unique interface, which was designed for today’s increasingly mobile consumer. According to the Pew Research Center, tablet adoption has almost doubled during the past year. This, coupled with the increase in smartphone usage, is driving the need to build new offerings that meet today’s technical standards.
“We want to make sure that, when consumers are searching for their new home, MyNewPlace provides an amazing experience on whatever device they use,” said Andy Hamilton, vice president of consumer and internet listing services at MyNewPlace. “Our new iPad app is different from any other app in the market because of features such as 3D floor plans, side-by-side property comparison, photo uploading, appointment settings directly from any device, and sharing favorite communities with friends.”

(May 8, 2013) &mdash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, is pleased to announce that Ann Handley, best-selling author and chief content officer of MarketingProfs, will present as a featured speaker at the 2013 RealWorld User Conference in Denver, Colorado, on Tuesday, July 16.
During her engaging and entertaining presentation, Ann will talk about the importance of creating content that breaks through the advertising and marketing clutter to tell the story of not only the rental housing company, but of the community as well.
&ldquo;Multifamily or rental housing companies may not think they have a compelling story to tell&hellip; but they do,&rdquo; said Handley. &ldquo;Those stories can deliver a sense of what apartment communities are about, what makes them unique, and why renters should live there. Content isn&rsquo;t just a tactic, it&rsquo;s an amazing opportunity.&rdquo;
Cited in Forbes as the most influential woman in Social Media and recognized by ForbesWoman as one of the top 20 women bloggers, Ann Handley is the chief content officer of MarketingProfs (www.marketingprofs.com), a training and education company with the largest community of marketers in its category.

(March 11, 2013) &mdash; Propertyware, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), today announced the launch of Propertyware Inspections, a new desktop and mobile solution that automates the inspection workflow process for rental housing clients, saving time and increasing productivity both in the office and in the field.
As the industry leader of on-demand software (Software-as-a-Service) and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, RealPage provides product solutions to apartment communities and single-family rentals across the United States.
Available for single-family and low-density rental housing units, the new Propertyware application automates the inspection workflow process by centralizing all inspection documentation into one location, accessible from both a desktop and in the field with an iPhone&reg; or iPad&reg;. Both the desktop and mobile versions of Inspections greatly reduce the amount of time spent scheduling, tracking and producing inspection reports. Also, any expenses resulting from tenant-caused damage can be documented, tracked and then applied to the tenant ledger prior to move out, allowing property managers the ability to recover expenses.
While in the field, inspection teams can use the mobile app to add unlimited photos and notes to all inspection items. For added flexibility and quicker response times, teams can view and schedule new inspections via the mobile app and even obtain directions to the properties. The mobile app is designed to work with or without an Internet connection and is fully integrated with Propertyware. As inspection teams enter the data on their mobile devices, it syncs into the Propertyware record, eliminating paper forms and duplicate data entry. Once the inspection syncs to Propertyware, it generates real-time alerts and provides an efficient way to genera...]]>

(February 25, 2013) &mdash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), today announced the launch of Prelease Management, a performance reporting tool for RealPage Student Living. Prelease Management automates the goal setting and reporting activity for student housing owners and operators, accelerating the management and decision-making process with real-time prelease performance reporting.
As anyone in the industry will attest, managing student housing is not without its own unique challenges. Operators of student housing properties have to re-lease the majority of their assets on an annual basis, and in a very short period of time. Setting goals for that narrow window and monitoring progress against them is an ongoing preoccupation for student housing property owners and managers. With RealPage&rsquo;s Prelease Management solution, student housing owners and operators can now run real-time goal performance reporting on crucial key performance indicators (KPI), including future occupancy, traffic, floor plan leases, renewals, and unit leases.
&ldquo;Student housing has some of the most demanding operational needs in the multifamily industry,&rdquo; explained Dave McKenna, vice president of Student Living at RealPage. &ldquo;The ability to effectively manage the prelease cycle and the annual turn is the defining characteristic of a successful student housing operator. The automation RealPage now offers in Prelease Management will provide our clients the ability to compete more effectively in this hyper-competitive space.&rdquo;
Through RealPage&rsquo;s exclusive Student Goal Set Calculator, student housing clients can now automatically establish future occupancy based on traffic, leasing and renewal assumptions. Goals for each leasing season are then summarized and managed in a concise user portal, and as...]]>

(April 24, 2012) &mdash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, today announced the launch of the eMoney Order payment solution available through its RealPage Payments platform.
The eMoney Order solution offers a secure, cost-effective alternative to paying rent and other charges with paper money orders, and provides real-time posting to resident ledgers when a payment is made. RealPage Payments customers will provide their residents with a payment coupon that residents use to pay rent with cash at participating retail locations. RealPage Payments partnered with Fiserv, the largest processor of walk-in bill payments in the United States, to offer this solution, which enables residents to pay rent and other charges at more than 24,000 retail agent locations nationwide, including supermarkets, drugstores, convenience stores, and independent and chain store retailers.
&ldquo;The eMoney Order solution is integrated directly into the property management system, enabling automatic payment posting in real-time into the resident ledgers. Additionally, each payment is validated on eviction and in collection status. No other multifamily payment provider offers that advantage,&rdquo; said Kimberly Lang, vice president of Payment Services for RealPage.
In addition to providing convenience for residents, the eMoney Order solution gives property owners and managers a more efficient and secure alternative to accepting traditional money orders. Unlike paper money orders, which can be lost, stolen or altered, eMoney Order facilitates a more secure payment transaction. RealPage Payments is embedded into the property management software, which streamlines the cashless eMoney Order process so site staff no longer has to handle and process money orders from residents each month, saving time and potential errors as...]]>

(April 20, 2012) &mdash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, today launched a new web-based version of OneSite Budgeting that eliminates the need to use manual spreadsheets in the budgeting process for multifamily portfolios.
&ldquo;With this new version, fixing corrupt spreadsheet files, repairing broken links or troubleshooting formula errors are now a thing of the past,&rdquo; said Ranjeev Teelock, vice president, OneSite Budgeting, at RealPage.
OneSite Budgeting simplifies and streamlines the budgeting and forecasting processes by delivering accurate calculations, automated consolidation, real-time updates and GAAP-compliant reports out-of-the box. It adds workflow that gives users better control over the process, including version control. The budgeting tool automatically stages actual historical and the prior year&rsquo;s budget data for each property, and eliminates the need for the accounting staff to prepare separate budget packages.
OneSite Budgeting also enables clients to create their budgets based on the financial and statistical measures that drive revenue and expenses. Menu prompts and wizards guide them through the budgeting process and perform property specific calculations. Changes made to the budgeting assumptions are automatically updated throughout the budgeting system, with no need to trouble-shoot formulas.
&ldquo;Many companies don&rsquo;t do revenue and expense forecasts because it is too tedious to create the spreadsheets and enter historical and budget data. With OneSite Budgeting our customers can set up a forecast model in less than five minutes.

(March 8, 2012) &mdash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, today announced its public housing-50058 functionality for OneSite&reg; Affordable customers, enabling property owners to expand the use of their OneSite Affordable application within their public housing portfolio.
OneSite Affordable client, American Baptist Homes of the West (ABHOW), is using the new 50058 product for its first foray into public housing. &ldquo;We&rsquo;ve had a great experience using OneSite Affordable 50058 with our first public housing property. Our staff has found it very simple to use, with very few training requirements needed,&rdquo; said Susan Ruan, corporate compliance specialist for ABHOW. &ldquo;We&rsquo;ve worked closely with RealPage, who has been a great partner as we enter a new area of affordable housing.&rdquo;
Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) and property management companies managing public housing on behalf of PHAs are required to qualify and certify residents using the HUD-50058 form, while also reporting that information by electronic transmission to HUD&rsquo;s PIC system. In some cases, these properties are also layered with tax credits financing, making the compliance requirements even more complex. RealPage&rsquo;s solution takes into consideration all these complexities and places special emphasis on the ease-of-use and flexibility of this new feature.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re providing this new functionality to our existing customers as well as prospects that have been looking into potentially adopting OneSite Affordable. This is a growing market as the privatization of the management of public housing has become more prevalent across the country&rdquo; said Gustavo Sapiurka, vice president and general manager of Affordable Housing at RealPage. &ldquo;We are now able t...]]>

(Dec. 15, 2011) &mdash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, today launched split-check capability for its RealPage Payments electronic payments solution that introduces a new level of convenience for property management companies to process check payments.
This first of its kind solution for the multifamily industry enables multifamily companies to accept one check and apply the payment to multiple units, residents&rsquo; ledgers and even sub-properties within the payments system, while still processing the check at face value. Previously, a check could only be processed to one unit at the face value, requiring manual ledger entries to split up the payment.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve been looking forward to the new split-check functionality being available in RealPage Payments. We receive a significant number of payments from companies and individuals who pay for multiple units with one check,&rdquo; said Kip Zacharias, vice president of business services, Camden Property Trust. &ldquo;We know having the new split-check functionality will be a big time-saver for our sites by helping us streamline our process around applying and reconciling split-check payments.&rdquo;
The split-check enhancement will enable property management companies to more easily process payments in a number of payment situations, including:

Accepting one corporate check for multiple resident units;
Accepting a single check from parents or guarantors for multiple student residents;
Electronically processing checks from universities and applying them to multiple student ledgers;

The electronic invoicing allows vendors to submit paperless invoices enabling owners to process and approve them without additional data entry via an automated workflow that integrates directly into their accounting system, resulting in process efficiency, reduction in late fees and better cash flow management. See www.realpage.com/spend-management/.
Earlier this year, Bell Partners, with a management portfolio of approximately 60,000 units, made an industry-leading move to require its vendors to submit invoices electronically via the OpsTechnology system, which has resulted in savings of about $100,000 annually for the company and its clients.
&ldquo;Since we made the decision to accept only electronic invoices, the adoption rate for our vendors has been incredible,&rdquo; said Mark Vernon, vice president purchasing for Bell Partners. &ldquo;In fact, the number of vendors that moved to paperless invoicing grew more than 90 percent in the first six months. We currently receive close to 75 percent of all invoices online, and that number continues to rise. The vendors like the convenience, fast response time and the visibility that a paperless system provides, so it&rsquo;s been very well received.&rdquo; Through the OpsTechnology system, vendors submit invoices electronically, which eliminates hand keying of invoice data, lost invoices, and manual approvals process, and offers a significant cost and time savings. Invoices are routed through the system and the data is securely stored online for easy retrieval.
&ldquo;Bell Partners has taken a leading position in moving to paperless invoicing that has provided a blueprint for how this program can successfully work to create significant savings,&rdquo; said A...]]>

(Aug. 22, 2011) &mdash; RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), a leading provider of on demand software and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, today announced it entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Multifamily Technology Solutions, Inc. (&ldquo;MTS&rdquo;) which offers an Internet listing service for rental properties marketed under the trade name MyNewPlace&reg; (www.mynewplace.com) and a suite of syndication and organic lead generation tools marketed under the trade name Rent Engine&reg;. The Company will acquire MTS for approximately $74.4 million, net of cash expected to be acquired. The purchase price will consist of approximately $63.6 million in cash and approximately $10.8 million paid with shares of RealPage common stock. The Company expects to close the transaction after closing conditions are met, which should be on or prior to Aug. 24, 2011.

(June 28, 2011)&mdash;RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), today announced that LeasingDesk&reg;, its wholly-owned subsidiary and leading provider of risk mitigation systems for the multifamily industry, is introducing eRenterPlan renter&rsquo;s insurance to the single-family market, making affordable policies and extensive protection available to renters and property owners. The program can be accessed through a simple online process on the Tenant Portal within Propertyware &ndash; a subsidiary of RealPage and leading web-based property management solution that offers software and services to single-family rentals and low density, centrally-managed multifamily housing.
&ldquo;There&rsquo;s a common misconception that a landlord&rsquo;s insurance policy covers a renter&rsquo;s belongings and that&rsquo;s not true,&rdquo; explained Sina Shekou, president Propertyware/SMB Division. &ldquo;eRenterPlan provides comprehensive and affordable policies to protect a tenant&rsquo;s belongings and exposure to risk.

(June 20, 2011)&mdash;RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), today announced OneSite Budgeting for HUD properties, the latest tool for affordable housing available through the OneSite property management system that saves time and money by significantly streamlining yearly budgeting and form submission for HUD housing assets.
The OneSite Budgeting product (www.realpage.com/property-management-software/budgeting/) now includes the mandatory U.S. Department of Housing and Development (HUD) form HUD-92547-A, which is critical to HUD funding, along with worksheets to map charts of accounts to the recommended HUD chart. These forms must be filed for budget approval before HUD allocates funds for Section 8 properties in that budget year.
RealPage estimates that the new addition to OneSite Budgeting will deliver the same results for affordable property managers as it has for traditional properties like Nickel Plate Properties, Inc., which reduced property budgeting and forecasting cycle times by 87 percent, freeing valuable time for property management companies to focus on revenue-generating activities. &ldquo;With OneSite Budgeting, we&rsquo;ve been able to reduce the time our property managers spent on budget data entry from three weeks to two days,&rdquo; said Macey Holden, vice president at Nickel Plate.
With the inclusion of HUD budget forms and worksheets, property managers now have a single system that produces an accurate budget ready for submission to HUD. OneSite Budgeting provides the capability for property managers to map their account codes to the HUD mandated chart. This freedom enables customers to run their business based on their business processes rather than trying to fit into the standardized chart of accounts.

(NASDAQ: RP), today announced that a wholly-owned subsidiary has acquired the assets and selected liabilities of Compliance Depot, a leading provider of vendor risk management (referred to as &ldquo;credentialing&rdquo;) and compliance services to the multifamily housing industry.
&ldquo;The acquisition of Compliance Depot is consistent with our strategy of adding new products and services to sell to the rental housing industry and once fully integrated will contribute to achieving our target operating model,&rdquo; said Steve Winn, Chairman and CEO of RealPage. &ldquo;Compliance Depot is the only brand name vendor risk management company in the multifamily industry. We see a tremendous opportunity to integrate the services of Compliance Depot and its 32,000+ unique vendors with RealPage&rsquo;s offering.&rdquo;
RealPage expects existing management of Compliance Depot will remain with the business. Based in Plano, Texas, Compliance Depot helps property owners reduce exposure to litigation, uninsured losses, compliance with federal law, the potential for fraud and abuse, as well as reputational damage caused by suppliers that are not properly credentialed to perform work for owners. Compliance Depot reports that over 45% of vendors have experienced a lapse in general liability coverage in the past two years; 31% of professional vendors have had a lapse in auto liability coverage in the past two years; and 11% of vendors have relevant derogatory information in their file. Compliance Depot protects owners from millions of dollars of potential exposure to the risk of uninsured or underinsured vendors.
Compliance Depot provides its services for an annual subscription fee, paid by each vendor for each property that is protected. Compliance Depot&rsquo;s data indicates there are at least 20 vendors per property that should subscribe to Compliance Depot, which adds approximately $170 million to RealPage&rsquo;s total addressable market...]]>

        <![CDATA[(May 2, 2011)&mdash;RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ: RP), today announced results of a nine month extensive pilot of its new Online Renewals product, which gives property owners the ability to renew resident leases online and accelerate the buying decision with incentives and amenity upgrades, resulting in reduced turnover, higher rents, and potentially saving thousands in expenses related to leasing vacant units.
Online Renewals is part of the OneSite&reg; Resident Portal where residents can securely log in and enter service requests, pay their rent and now renew their lease online with an electronic signature, streamlining a process that has historically been handled by leasing agents. By focusing on resident retention, property management companies can greatly decrease expenses associated with turnover. Satisfacts Research estimates the average cost per move-out is approximately $4,100, which includes average vacancy loss days, concessions, marketing, leasing staff time and apartment repairs required to re-lease the unit among other turnover expenses.
RealPage and UDR, Inc., an S&amp;P 400 company and leading multifamily real estate investment trust with an ownership position in more than 59,000 apartment homes, collaborated in the design and development of this unique new option to the RealPage OneSite Resident Portal. Since deploying Online Renewals at its properties in July 2010, UDR has experienced widespread acceptance, along with reduced turnover and rent increases.
&ldquo;Since we began offering online renewals, more than 80 percent of our lease renewals have been completed online, a phenomenal acceptance rate in such a short period of time,&rdquo; said Tom Toomey president and chief executive officer of UDR. &ldquo;At properties with a high percentage of leases renewed online, turnover has been 2 percent lower and asking rents have increased by 3 percent with 90-95 percent of residents accepting the initial rent increase.

(Feb. 15, 2011)&mdash;RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, today launched an automated repayment service for its OneSite Affordable customers, giving property owners a new tool to recover lost revenue by more easily tracking subsidies tenants owe to the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
Edgewood Management, the National Affordable Housing Management Association&rsquo;s ninth largest manager of affordable housing with more than 33,000 units, worked with RealPage on the design of the new product and is one of the first to use it with its residential properties.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re pleased we could partner with RealPage on the design of this new functionality, which we believe will greatly enhance our ability to collect money for both HUD and our properties while reducing the overall amount of time we spend on this task,&rdquo; said Brad Marson, SVP of Operations at Edgewood Management. &ldquo;Our work with RealPage allowed us to look at the manual tracking processes that had been in place and suggest ways to better handle the accounting side of tracking the receivables and payments. RealPage shared its product designs with us before the functionality was implemented to ensure that the end result would meet our needs as well as those of the industry.&rdquo;
HUD properties are required to use Enterprise Income Verification (EIV), resulting in some tenants owing subsidy to HUD because of misreported income. Property owners, or management agents who run the HUD properties for the owners, are tasked with negotiating repayment agreements with these tenants, including managing the billing and payment processes and returning the collected money to HUD. HUD allows owners/agents to keep a percentage of the money collected i...]]>

        <![CDATA[(January 25, 2011)&mdash;Yesterday RealPage, Inc. (NASDAQ:RP), learned from its clients that Yardi Systems, Inc. has filed a lawsuit against RealPage in California regarding consulting services performed by EverGreen Consulting, a division of RealPage. EverGreen is a small consulting firm, the assets of which were acquired by RealPage in 2009, and represents an immaterial portion of the company&rsquo;s overall business. While RealPage and Yardi have maintained a generally cooperative and professional relationship over the years, Yardi has been openly disparaging EverGreen ever since RealPage acquired the assets. As a client service company, RealPage finds this disparagement surprising given that EverGreen&rsquo;s mission for the past 10 years has been to improve their shared clients&rsquo; experience with Yardi Voyager.
In this suit, Yardi alleges that EverGreen accessed Yardi information outside the scope of agreements with clients on seven occasions in the past 10 months. EverGreen access to Yardi information is intended for the purpose of providing consulting and support services acting on behalf of shared Yardi and RealPage clients. RealPage will investigate these seven incidents and any others that Yardi provides to the company and take whatever actions are warranted by the facts.
RealPage believes that Yardi&rsquo;s hidden intent in filing this lawsuit is to inhibit EverGreen from competing with Yardi&rsquo;s consulting service organization and that this lawsuit is a tactic to limit alternative choices for Yardi clients, thereby restraining a more open and competitive marketplace. RealPage intends to defend this action vigorously and to protect EverGreen&rsquo;s right to provide services to clients that they share with Yardi.

Leavenworth, Kan., has completed its transition to RealPage&rsquo;s OneSite Military Housing, marking the third Michaels Military installation since September to introduce RealPage&rsquo;s comprehensive software and technology services.

&ldquo;The reporting, product support, training and innovation from RealPage make its products a great fit for our needs as a privatized military housing provider. We look forward to expanding our relationship with RealPage as our business continues to grow and evolve,&rdquo; said Hansen.
&ldquo;The process of converting three military installations to OneSite Military Housing in a short period of time has run smoothly, thanks to the RealPage team and its work with the local staff at each installation,&rdquo; said Heather Plummer, Michaels Military&rsquo;s vice president of community management.
The oldest operational Army post west of the Mississippi and home of the Command and General Staff College, Ft. Leavenworth offers more than 1,500 homes on the base for assigned personnel and their families. The post transition follows deployments of OneSite Military Housing at two other installations managed by Michaels Military, Ft. Huachuca and the Yuma Proving Grounds, both in Arizona.

(September 7, 2010) &ndash; CrossFire, a division of RealPage, Inc. (www.realpage.com), today announced the launch of the mobile device portals for both prospects and residents, following a period of successful testing at several Camden Property Trust sites.
The Mobile Prospect Portal allows prospects who are out searching for an apartment to locate nearby communities via GPS and view full property details on their handheld devices; the Mobile Resident Portal gives residents the same mobility for paying rent, submitting service requests and staying informed about community issues.
&ldquo;It&rsquo;s not enough to have just a website anymore,&rdquo; said Michael Munoz, Vice President of CrossFire Portals. &ldquo;Your prospects and residents are becoming increasingly dependent on their mobile devices; they expect to be able to find the information they need and transact business while on the move.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
Attracting more prospects with Mobile Prospect Portals
The Mobile Prospect Portal has been in use at several communities belonging to Camden Property Trust. GPS technology helps prospects with mobile devices locate communities closest to their location &mdash; for example, when they&rsquo;re in a car searching for an apartment. They can also view floor plans, access pricing and real-time availability, submit a guest card and even reserve a unit, all from their mobile device.
&ldquo;Since June, we&rsquo;ve had a 16% increase in mobile traffic according to site analytics, said John Selindh, Camden&rsquo;s vice president of marketing. &ldquo;With the assumption that more prospects are hitting our site due to the online campaigns, we can infer that prospects are comfortable with shopping for apartments using their mobile devices.&rdquo;

(August 31, 2010) &ndash; MPF Research (www.mpfresearch.com), a leading provider of multifamily industry market intelligence, today announced their keynote speakers for their annual Southeast and Texas/Southwest Apartment Markets Conferences.
Christy Freeland, retiring chairman of Riverstone Residential Group, will deliver the keynote presentation at the upcoming Southeast Apartment Markets Conference on September 21st in Atlanta. Freeland will provide her perspective on lessons learned after more than 30 years in the apartment industry, as well as her outlook on opportunities and challenges facing the multifamily housing market in years to come.
Freeland helped to form Riverstone Residential Group through a buyout of Trammell Crow Residential Services in January 2006. Since then, the company has grown to rank among the industry&rsquo;s property management powerhouses, operating more than 175,000 units in about 30 states. Freeland was instrumental in leading Riverstone through the acquisition of five property management companies during recent years.
Thomas W. Toomey, chief executive officer and president of UDR, Inc., will deliver the keynote presentation at the Texas/Southwest Apartment Markets Conference on November 2nd in Dallas. Toomey will discuss UDR&rsquo;s introduction of new resident-focused technologies and emphasis on green living environments.
Toomey has spearheaded the vision and strategic direction of UDR, Inc. since 2001. Prior to his work at UDR, he served as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer for Apartment Investment and Management Company (AIMCO). During his tenure at AIMCO, Toomey was instrumental in the growth of AIMCO from 34,000 apartment homes to 360,000 apartment homes.

(August 24, 2010)&mdash;LeasingDesk(www.leasingdesk.com), a leading provider of risk mitigation systems for the multifamily industry and a wholly-owned subsidiary of RealPage, Inc. (www.realpage.com), today launched Credit Optimizer, a new enhancement designed to improve leasing operations by systematically adjusting resident screening thresholds to maximize a community&rsquo;s occupancy and profitability. Credit Optimizer&rsquo;s screening flexibility helps property owners and managers improve occupancy levels by automatically adjusting a community&rsquo;s lower credit thresholds, allowing applicants to qualify for a lease while minimizing a community&rsquo;s overall financial exposure from higher credit risks, fair housing violations, or asset devaluation.
&ldquo;In an effort to overcome low occupancy levels and improve the property&rsquo;s bottom line, owners often arbitrarily lower their screening thresholds,&rdquo; said David Carner, president of LeasingDesk. &ldquo;The resulting problem is increased exposure from bad debt, and over the long term, asset devaluation. Credit Optimizer combats these problems by scientifically adjusting screening thresholds to allow more applicants to qualify, and transfers additional credit risk to the applicant through increased deposit and/or rent.&rdquo;
The Associated Press recently reported that American consumers&rsquo; credit scores have fallen dramatically, making them poor credit risks for lenders. Therefore, sustained occupancy will have to rely on an ability to accept some applicants who have moderate credit issues, while mitigating cost of risk for owners.
Credit Optimizer helps to ensure that a community maintains a healthy balance of residents with acceptable credit versus unfavorable credit by controlling the percentage of approved applicants who fall within groups of good, moderate, poor, and very poor credit. The system statistically determines the...]]>

&ldquo;The multifamily industry is clearly embracing revenue management. We wanted to determine the kinds of returns we could achieve with this technology.&rdquo; said Rick Graf, president of Pinnacle.
Pinnacle chose Price Optimizer after a thorough review of available revenue management solutions and the successful completion of a six-month evaluation program on 11 properties.
&ldquo;We didn&rsquo;t feel right recommending a revenue management system to our clients without first putting it through its paces on our own properties,&rdquo; added Graf. &ldquo;The revenue premiums that Price Optimizer can produce are a powerful tool for us and for our clients.&rdquo;
&ldquo;We achieved better than expected results,&rdquo; continued Graf. &ldquo;It was exciting to see an average revenue outperformance of three percent across the properties. We were pleased with the impact YieldStar had on both our rents and our occupancies.&rdquo;
As the largest apartment fee management company in the multifamily industry, according to the 2010 NMHC 50 report, Pinnacle is excited to add revenue management to its core service offering, and is in the process of implementing Price Optimizer on additional properties within its owned portfolio as well as for its fee clients around the country.

First, they understand our industry and have deep resources with knowledge about all of the applications that we use. Second, they have deployed redundant data centers that support 30,000 locations and more than 75,000 unique users per day, so we felt comfortable with their experience in cloud computing and their ability to meet the rigorous SAS 70 compliance objectives of our institutional clients.

(July 13, 2010)&mdash;LeasingDesk (www.leasingdesk.com), a leading provider of risk mitigation systems for the multifamily industry and a wholly-owned subsidiary of RealPage, Inc. (www.realpage.com), today announced the availability of special event liability insurance for residents who host one-day gatherings in property clubhouses or at other local off-site locations.
&ldquo;This affordable liability protection is designed to provide protection to the resident and the property owner that a standard renter&rsquo;s policy does not provide,&rdquo; said David Carner, president of LeasingDesk. &ldquo;We believe liability protection will soon become a requirement for many properties any time the clubhouse is rented, because it offers protection to the owner and the resident and the cost is not prohibitive.&rdquo;
This newest product offering is the company&rsquo;s most recent move to bring innovative insurance products to market that are affordable and match an apartment resident&rsquo;s lifestyle, while mitigating cost of risk to owners.
Offered through eRenterPlan, which specializes in insurance products for apartment residents, special event coverage can be purchased by residents who host a party, business meeting, wedding reception, reunion or other similar gathering at the community clubhouse, or at a local church or banquet hall. Residents can purchase a policy online through the eRenterPlan web site (www.erenterplan.com), pay with a credit card and immediately obtain proof-of-coverage.
For as little as $100, this program is primarily designed for single-day special events and offers limit options of $1 million and $2 million per occurrence. No additional charges apply to add the owner of the event location or facility as an additional insured, increasing the policy&rsquo;s value even further.

Steve Winn, RealPage chairman and CEO, and Henry Pye, vice president of Velocity Advisory Services, have been named as Top 25 Leaders, and Keith Dunkin, vice president of YieldStar &amp; MPF Research, has been recognized as one of 10 Rising Stars.
&ldquo;The MDU Hall of Fame, a distinction bestowed every four years, is a list of key people in the multi-dwelling unit (MDU) industry and its suppliers who led, or provided input to, forward-looking management and technology teams,&rdquo; said Scott DeGarmo, president and CEO, Broadband Properties LLC. &ldquo;Our main criterion for being named to the list was cutting-edge impact on MDU broadband deployments in 2009-2010. We judged that without the participation of the Top 25 and the Rising Stars results would have been significantly different and probably less exciting.&rdquo;
&ldquo;We feel honored to be recognized by Broadband Properties for our service to our customers in helping them realize the highest value from the voice, video and Internet services that they provide to their residents,&rdquo; said Winn. &ldquo;We also congratulate our customers who made the Top 25 and Rising Star lists.&rdquo;

(May 20, 2010)&mdash;LeasingDesk, a leading provider of risk mitigation systems for the multifamily industry and a wholly owned subsidiary of RealPage, Inc.(www.realpage.com), today announces new sewer/water backup and pet damage endorsements for its flagship product, eRenterPlan renter&rsquo;s insurance (www.erenterplan.com). The offerings provide policyholders greater protection from financial loss due to personal property damage from plumbing backups and excessive pet destruction to an apartment unit.
&ldquo;As a leader in renter&rsquo;s insurance offerings specific to the multifamily industry, we put significant effort into tracking and evaluating the claims we receive to determine the most common damages impacting apartment owners and residents,&rdquo; explained David Carner, president of LeasingDesk. &ldquo;Designing these premium-based endorsements to work in conjunction with eRenterPlan ensures we deliver a comprehensive solution with the most robust coverage, providing residents and owners with increased protection.&rdquo;

The water peril component under eRenterPlan is one of the most comprehensive, including broad roof leak coverage to protect the resident&rsquo;s contents. The water/sewer coverage endorsement extends to plumbing backups from sewer or drain lines, as well as overflows from sump pumps. Under this new endorsement, a resident can receive reimbursement for personal property loss up to the limit under their eRenterPlan policy. The endorsement is available for a nominal premium of $12 per year.
The pet damage endorsement works in conjunction with a property&rsquo;s security deposit or pet deposit indicated in the lease agreement. For $18 per year, residents gain up to an additional $500 above the specified deposit for damage to the apartment caused by their pet, such as stained or ruined carpet, chewed-up base boards, or scratched doors.

        <![CDATA[(March 17, 2010) &mdash; LeasingDesk, a leading provider of risk mitigation systems for the multifamily industry and a wholly owned subsidiary of RealPage, Inc., (www.realpage.com), today announces the availability of RenterProtection&trade;, a supplemental insurance product that provides limited liability coverage to the owner in the event a renter&rsquo;s insurance policy lapses, is canceled, or the renter has no insurance. Leveraging a comprehensive integration with LeasingDesk&rsquo;s flagship offering, eRenterPlan&trade; renter&rsquo;s insurance, RenterProtection is automatically activated when a resident&rsquo;s renter&rsquo;s insurance policy has been discontinued, providing owners with seamless coverage from exposure to risk.
&ldquo;Managing a required renter&rsquo;s insurance program can be incredibly time consuming and often inaccurate without online tracking capabilities,&rdquo; explained David Carner, president of LeasingDesk. &ldquo;The ability to track enforcement of renter&rsquo;s insurance policies through the property management system and have RenterProtection kick in when a policy lapses, makes it easy for an owner to manage risk transfer in an efficient and cost-effective manner.&rdquo;
Similar to the liability portion in traditional renter&rsquo;s insurance policies, RenterProtection provides $25,000 to $100,000 in coverage for resident-caused damage under these common perils: water, fire, smoke, or explosion. Premiums are very cost effective, with a $25,000 policy at $6.50 per unit per month to $9.75 per unit per month for $100,000 in coverage.
After RenterProtection has been activated, OneSite&copy; Leasing &amp; Rents generates a direct charge to the resident&rsquo;s ledger for the cost of the supplemental coverage. This seamless coverage and billing process decreases the exposure to unexpected financial risk associated with resident-caused damage and delivers a systematic approach for owners to recover the program costs.

(www.realpage.com), a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the real estate industry, today announced the availability of system integration between OneSite&reg; Military Housing and the electronic Navy housing system called eNH. The integration between the two systems enables private partners operating on-base military housing at U.S. Naval installations to seamlessly exchange information with the Navy system supporting the joint referral and resident management functions of privatized Navy housing.
&ldquo;The transition to OneSite Military [Housing] with eNH integration was extremely easy,&rdquo; said Veronica Billiot, community director of the Naval Air Station &mdash; New Orleans. &ldquo;RealPage handled all the details with both the Navy Housing Office and third-party provider of the eNH system.&rdquo;
The OneSite Military Housing system automatically retrieves referrals from the Navy Housing Office and creates prospect records in OneSite, which are managed by leasing personnel.
&ldquo;It couldn&rsquo;t be easier. New prospects show up automatically in OneSite when Navy Housing makes the referral,&rdquo; said Danielle Melanson, office manager at NAS New Orleans. &ldquo;And all of the resident activities are automatically sent to eNH. We can focus on leasing and working with residents while OneSite does the rest.&rdquo;
Dave McKenna, director of OneSite Military Housing for RealPage, explained that the eNH integration capability was launched in October 2009 and has exceeded expectations for stability.
&ldquo;We spent a lot of time making sure we got this right from the onset. We know our military housing partners expect rock-solid dependability,&rdquo; said McKenna. &ldquo;Since implementation, we and our partners have been very pleased with the results.&rdquo;

(January 12, 2010) &mdash; RealPage, Inc. (www.realpage.com), a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the real estate industry, today announced the availability of Automated BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing) Rate Management as part of its RealPage Military Housing system.
&ldquo;This innovation eliminates the need for privatized military housing site staff to manually retrieve data from government web sites each year and cull through the data for rates that apply to their projects,&rdquo; said Dave McKenna, director of military housing for RealPage. &ldquo;RealPage automatically retrieves the annual BAH rate tables and updates the entire system with the current valid rates.&rdquo;
The annual Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) is based on geographic duty location, pay grade and dependency status. The intent of BAH is to provide uniformed service members accurate and equitable housing compensation based on housing costs in local civilian housing markets and when government housing is not available. RealPage loaded the 2010 BAH rates into its military housing software so that its clients could automatically access the rates.
&ldquo;We used the system to automatically update our BAH rates for 2010. The automatic update was a very easy process and took a fraction of the time to complete,&rdquo; said Charlene Blakely, business manager for United Communities responsible for McGuire Air Force Base and Ft. Dix. &ldquo;In the past, we had to manually adjust every resident&rsquo;s rent for the new BAH rates. With OneSite, RealPage loaded the rates so that the updates could be done by us. We were able to determine which rates were to be changed based on the Rental Agreements.&rdquo;
McKenna explained that BAH Rate Management is a good example of RealPage&rsquo;s vision for military housing software.
&ldquo;Our goal is to automate the critical operational tasks of privatized military housing to ensure...]]>

The service will be offered under the trade name RealPage Cloud Computing (or simply the &ldquo;Cloud&rdquo;, a new division of RealPage that will provide computing services to RealPage clients operating in two fully redundant data centers connected by dual 10 Gigabit dedicated fiber circuits.

A cloud computing platform allows an owner or fee manager to outsource data center and applications hosting to a managed service provider with the economies of scale and expertise that drive costs down and improve overall performance and reliability.
&ldquo;Corporate IT departments are under increased pressure to provide more services for less cost and it becomes challenging when technology costs are rising and IT professionals are becoming harder to find, train and retain,&rdquo; added Lindwall. &ldquo;We are addressing our clients&rsquo; need to cut costs and dramatically improve the reliability and capabilities of tightly integrated solutions.

(September 21, 2009) &mdash;  RealPage, Inc (www.realpage.com),a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the real estate industry, has officially entered a new multi-tenant market with the acquisition of A.L. Wizard, a software and best practices pioneer in the senior living industry.
Founded by a nurse and former senior living executive, A.L. Wizard developed a nationally-acclaimed assessment method for resident acuity measurement and community management best practices. A strong adoption rate has made A.L. Wizard an industry standard in senior living software for nearly a decade.
According to Dirk Wakeham, executive vice president at RealPage, &ldquo;We studied the senior living market for two years before approaching A.L.Wizard. We were most impressed by the enthusiastic endorsement of the company by their clients. When we dug a little deeper, it became clear that A.L. Wizard was able to consistently help operators increase revenue by $500 to $1,000 per unit per year by optimizing revenue from each resident, based on the creation and dynamic management of the assessment, staffing and billing process.&rdquo;
&ldquo;We intend to continue supporting the A.L Wizard platform and will be upgrading the technology platform over time to a true Web-based, on-demand application,&rdquo; said Wakeham. &ldquo;This process will be transparent to A.L.Wizard clients.

(August 25, 2009)&mdash; MPF Research (www.mpfresearch.com), a leading provider of market intelligence and statistical analysis in the multifamily industry, today announced that its data sample exceeded five (5) million apartment units surveyed in the firm&rsquo;s mid-2009 market update. Product tracked for occupancy and rent positioning during the second quarter of 2009 totaled more than 22,600 properties in 231 metropolitan areas across the country.
&ldquo;Most of the apartment sector&rsquo;s investors and operators are active in multiple metros, so when comparing one market to another it&rsquo;s important to have one source of information using consistent and statistically-sound methodologies in tracking conditions,&rdquo; said Greg Willett, vice president of research and analysis at MPF Research.
While growth of the data sample registers all across the country, survey size has been expanded particularly in select metros where MPF Research now can provide the same depth of coverage offered in areas where the firm is already established as the local market expert. Key growth centers of sample size include New York, NY, Hartford, CT, Fort Myers-Naples, FL, New Orleans, LA, Baton Rouge, LA, Colorado Springs, CO and Ventura, CA.
MPF Research&rsquo;s survey sample size now goes deeper into the product base across every metropolitan area featured in the core coverage group.
&ldquo;The reliability of results improves with more product examined in any individual area,&rdquo; Willett said. &ldquo;Furthermore, having such a deep sample allows MPF Research to segment results by neighborhood and product niche. In benchmarking the performance of an individual property, the real measure of success or failure is a comparison of similar properties in the same neighborhood. That often can present a totally different picture than comparison to trends on a metro-level basis...]]>

(June 16, 2009)&mdash;RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the multifamily industry, today announced recent web statistics from CrossFire Studio that show dramatic increases in web site visitor retention and time spent online with the use of strategically positioned 3D floor plans and animations on apartment community websites.
When performing web statistic analysis for several of its clients with 3DView&trade; floor plans, CrossFire Studio determined that websites with 3DView-created 3D floor plans displayed on the home page dramatically decreased visitor &ldquo;bounce&rdquo; rates from the industry average of 33 percent to less than three percent. Bounce rates measure of what percentage of site visitors leave a website after only viewing the initial homepage. In addition, the data showed that users spent an average of seven to eight minutes on the site compared to the industry average of one and a half to two minutes, an increase of more than 400 percent in most cases.
&ldquo;The response to our 3D floor plans and animations has been tremendous. 3DView gives our clients&rsquo; communities the opportunity to highlight their greatest asset and product&mdash;the floor plan,&rdquo; said Michael Munoz, vice president of CrossFire Studio. &ldquo;By strategically positioning 3D floor plans and animations on their websites, our clients&rsquo; prospects spend significantly more time exploring the site and look at far more floor plans.&rdquo;
Further analysis reveals that the use of 3D floor plans increases the number of return visitors seeking additional information about the property, indicating that apartment communities using 3D floor plans on their websites are likely to see an increase in leases from online visitors.

&ldquo;We are excited to debut our new state-of-the-art YieldStar web site,&rdquo; said Janine Steiner Jovanovic, president, MPF YieldStar. &ldquo;The multifamily industry is beginning to embrace the value of revenue management, but still has questions about what exactly it encompasses.

        <![CDATA[(May 27, 2009) &mdash; Velocity, a leading provider of resident utility billing and invoice processing services for the multifamily industry, praised new utility billing legislation that allows Texas multifamily owners who submeter water and sewer services to charge a nominal service charge. Velocity, in a collaborative effort with the Utility Conservation Coalition, was instrumental in introducing and encouraging passage of Texas Senate Bill 2126, which was signed by Gov. Rick Perry last week.
Submetering enables multifamily owners to bill residents for their actual utility consumption. Under the new law, an administrative fee of no more than 9% of the total submetered water and sewer bill can be passed to residents. Given that submetering has been proven to promote conservation, Velocity believes that the percentage service fee was more appropriate than a flat or fixed fee.
&ldquo;Research has shown that submetering encourages water conservation,&rdquo; said Ryan Grogan, compliance officer for RealPage. &ldquo;We are pleased that we played a part in encouraging passage of the bill and, more importantly, in ensuring that the legislation will continue to promote conservation. Our customers with multifamily properties in Texas will now be able to pass through to residents part of the administrative cost of providing energy saving submetering programs.&rdquo;
When provided with an accurate billing of actual utility usage, residents typically modify behavior to reduce water consumption, which in turn lowers utility bills. The more the resident conserves, the lower the service fee.
To schedule an interview with a RealPage executive, please contact Linda Graham at linda.graham@realpage.com or (972) 820-3518.

Velocity received the award based on the net operating income (NOI) value created for owners using its convergent billing service.
The Outstanding Multifamily Partner Awards, which are nominated and voted on by owners, developers, and managers recognize vendors who understand the unique attributes of the multifamily industry and how best to serve the resident. Candidates are nominated and voted on by multifamily owners with documented evidence of the vendor partner&rsquo;s success at adding value to the owner&rsquo;s business and/or communities.
&ldquo;We are proud to receive the Outstanding Multifamily Partner Award from Broadband Properties,&rdquo; said Ashley Glover, executive vice president, RealPage. &ldquo;The customers who nominated us recognize that the Velocity convergent billing service enables them to achieve higher utility collection rates. Using convergent billing rather than separate invoices for utility bills can help an owner achieve a higher NOI per year for an average property in its portfolio. Our goal is to create real value for our customers through superior technology and superior execution.&rdquo;
Velocity convergent bills are a single monthly resident bill that combines rent, utilities, and small charges and can help owners who are billing for electricity, natural gas, water or other utilities realize tremendous cost savings. Vacant unit electric or gas charges, along with corresponding administrative fees, are included in convergent bills, a key differentiator for Velocity. Since residents are already accustomed to paying monthly bills they receive in the mail, and this habit holds true with rent, the convergent bill typically results in higher vi...]]>

American Modern deployed a catastrophe team to the community the day after the fires were contained to assist policyholders with the claims process. Six residential buildings were damaged by the fire, four of which were completely destroyed. To date 20 claims were deemed &ldquo;total losses&rdquo; and in most cases the policy limits were paid in full. The remaining 49 claims represent &ldquo;partial losses,&rdquo; which included...]]>

Property sites simply submit their ordinary floor plans to 3DView and choose the kind of 3D images they want: from a &ldquo;glasshouse&rdquo; style to color 3D, or an animated 3D walk-through. The high-quality 3D images can then be used on any printed or sales materials, Internet listing services, property websites, or anywhere a powerful first impression is required.
3DView also gives communities a hassle-free way of creating animated 3D walk-throughs&mdash;a powerful selling tool that virtually walks a prospective renter through any floor plan.
&ldquo;Nothing hooks a prospect&rsquo;s attention like letting them do a simulated walk-through of your apartments,&rdquo; stated Michael Fortinberry, president of CrossFire. &ldquo;But until now, apartment communities had to furnish an apartment and hire a stager and videographer to actually walk through and film it. And usually, they would create only a single floor plan walk-through. But with 3DView, apartment communities can afford to create 3D versions or walk-throughs of all their floor plans, even apartments still under construction. This makes it a must-have for any new development or re-development property.&rdquo;
The 3DView website makes it incredibly easy for home office or site staff to order 3D floor plans by submitting existing 2D floor plans, either electronically or on paper, for conversion to 3D. It takes users through an easy, step-by-step process to se...]]>

The companies anticipate providing more than $500,000 in total loss reimbursements once all claims are finalized.

American Modern opened a catastrophe claims office in Houston to assist affected residents through the claims process and provide financial reimbursement to qualifying residents. Since opening the office on October 7th, 88 percent of the 308 claims have been managed and closed, providing residents with cash advances to assist with temporary housing and emergency living expenses.

(August 24, 2008) &mdash; M/PF YieldStar, the leading source of apartment market intelligence for the multifamily industry, today announced that its Texas Apartment Markets Conference is not stopping at the state line this year. It&rsquo;s being expanded to include apartment sector performances and outlooks for Phoenix, Denver and Las Vegas. To highlight this growth, the established multifamily industry conference is getting a new name: the Texas/Southwest Apartment Markets Conference.
The Texas markets now command center stage in the U.S. multifamily picture, thanks in large part to the whopping 56,000+ apartment units under construction across Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and San Antonio as of mid-year. Add in another 12,000 units under construction in Phoenix, plus 5,300 on the way in Denver and 4,000 in process in Las Vegas. With all that activity, there will be lots to talk about at M/PF YieldStar&rsquo;s early November apartment markets conference, which will examine the current market fundamentals and outlooks for the Lone Star State&rsquo;s major metros plus the Southwest major metros.
&ldquo;It&rsquo;s a dynamic time for apartment market conditions, given the significant shifts seen in job production by market and the varying impact that competition from shadow market rentals is having by area&rdquo; said Greg Willett, vice president of research and analysis for M/PF YieldStar. &ldquo;Metro and neighborhood selection is becoming a greater element in investment success, so it&rsquo;s important to know your markets and your position in those markets.&rdquo;
Also featured at the conference are roundtable discussions with key developers and operators active in Texas and the Southwest markets, plus an overview of transactions activity from the Marcus &amp; Millichap team. A cocktail reception concludes the event.

During Hurricane Katrina, the number of calls received by the CrossFire Contact Center spiked tremendously. &ldquo;During Katrina, our Call Center received thousands of calls from desperate people looking for housing and assistance. We learned a lot during that emergency and took steps to prepare for the worst with the recent hurricanes Gustav and Ike,&rdquo; according to Dave McKenna, Director of Client Operations for RealPage.
Typically, the CrossFire Contact Center handles routine calls and e-mails for its property management customers, providing backup for busy on-site leasing staff during and after hours to ensure immediate response to calls and emails for leasing inquiries and resident service requests. The disaster support capability enhances that service set by providing targeted 24&times;7 support for residents preparing for evacuation and for their return home. RealPage provides special toll-free numbers for residents to call to get current information relating to their housing, evacuation, and recovery.
&ldquo;When we were faced with the recent mandatory evacuation of New Orleans, that directly affected the hundreds of military families living in on-base housing,&rdquo; said Brian May, controller for Patrician Management. &ldquo;We wanted to make the evacuation as easy on our residents as possible, and RealPage has been very responsive and able to provide an exemplary level of service to our residents.&rdquo; Patrician Management of Baton Rouge is the private partner responsible for managing almost 1,000 units of on-base housing for the Naval Air Station and Naval Support Activity based in New Orleans.

(August 26, 2008) &mdash; Velocity, a leading provider of resident utility billing and invoice processing services for the multifamily industry, today announced that its popular revenue-enhancing convergent bill is now available for online review and payment by apartment residents.
With Velocity Convergent Billing Services, residents can now go to their online portal to review and pay their rent and other charges, including utilities (electricity, gas, water and sewer), service fees, amenity fees, and vacant unit cost recovery, on a single online bill. This type of self-service approach also allows residents to see their utility consumption, enabling them to make lifestyle adjustments and better control their expenses.
From the property management perspective, the integration of convergent billing and online access gets all charges in front of residents in a timely, unified manner and improves total collections, while the ability for residents to pay online improves collection times.
&ldquo;It&rsquo;s about improving the resident experience and property operations at the same time,&rdquo; stated Ashley Glover, president, Velocity. &ldquo;Velocity Convergent Billing is an amenity for residents &mdash; proven to increase resident satisfaction. Additionally, our studies have shown that properties lift overall resident collections an average of three to five percent by providing a convergent bill that includes resident ledger and utility charges.&rdquo;

CrossFire serves more than 4,000 communities with integrated systems to manage marketing and leasing over the phone, online and in the office.

        <![CDATA[(August 5, 2008) &mdash; While the credit crunch is holding down multifamily housing starts across much of the nation, apartment development activity is surging in Texas, according to industry research firm M/PF YieldStar.
Recently-released statistics show 56,194 apartment units under construction going into 2008&rsquo;s second half within the state&rsquo;s big four metropolitan areas &mdash; Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and San Antonio. That figure is up a whopping 38 percent from the number of apartments under construction as of mid-2007.
&ldquo;Capital sources clearly are taking into account that the Texas markets boast the nation&rsquo;s healthiest economies, and that makes lenders more willing to fund additional development in the state,&rdquo; said Greg Willett, M/PF YieldStar&rsquo;s vice president of research. &ldquo;Most of the builders we&rsquo;ve talked to have said that financing for projects recently starting construction was finalized just during the past few months, well after the credit crunch hit. Thus, despite the fact that some deals are falling out of the pipeline, the number getting the green light is quite substantial.&rdquo;
Dallas/Fort Worth leads Texas in ongoing apartment construction, with 19,217 units underway. That&rsquo;s just ahead of the 18,848 units being built in Houston. Austin checks in with 12,810 units under construction, while the tally is 5,219 units in San Antonio.
So many recent starts and quite a bit of additional product ready to begin construction now put most of the key markets in Texas on a path toward overbuilding, according to M/PF YieldStar&rsquo;s analysis.
&ldquo;Even though job growth is strong across the state, San Antonio actually is the only major market generating substantial demand for apartments right now,&rdquo; Willett says. &ldquo;Elsewhere, excessive numbers of single-family homes offered for lease are stealing rental demand that otherwise would have gone to the apartment sector.&rdquo;

(June 26, 2008) &mdash; Multifamily leaders RealPage, Inc., the National and Texas Apartment Associations and Blue Moon Software today announced a new strategic partnership to integrate eSignature technology into the official leases of the National Apartment Association (NAA) and the Texas Apartment Association (TAA). Now RealPage users can offer prospects the ability to electronically execute a secure and legally binding lease, supported by the industry&rsquo;s two largest apartment associations.
eSignature, a component of the online leasing systems from RealPage, is a simple, safe and quick way for a prospective resident to complete a lease application at his or her personal convenience using an Internet connection. The eSignature inserted into the lease conforms to the June 2000 Electronic Signatures Act, making the signed lease legally binding and admissible in court.
&ldquo;Innovations in electronic signatures and online leasing are creating never before realized business efficiencies and cost savings for multifamily owners,&rdquo; said Steve Winn, CEO and president of RealPage. &ldquo;This partnership enables our clients, and the members of these two leading apartment associations, to utilize a safe and legally enforceable electronic signature to complete the leasing process, regardless of which property management software system they&rsquo;re using.&rdquo;
When a password-protected account and personal information is entered through an online portal, a prospect can review a PDF version of their lease application, which cannot be edited. In order to complete the lease using the Internet, the applicant authenticates an electronic signature with three easy steps. The applicant re-enters their password into the system, checks the &ldquo;I understand and agree&rdquo; button and selects the &ldquo;Sign Now&rdquo; button. Completion of these steps momentarily unlocks the official le...]]>

(June 2, 2008) &mdash; LeasingDesk&trade;, a division of RealPage, Inc., and a leading provider of point of lease systems for the multifamily industry, today announced the integration of corporate housing functionality into its resident screening product. LeasingDesk Resident Screening is now the only platform in the industry enabling owners with an integrated and streamlined ability to deliver corporate lease recommendations.
Screening the credit rating of corporate clients is a paper-intensive, time-consuming and subjective process typically managed by on-site staff. LeasingDesk Screening&rsquo;s expanded functionality now makes its possible for on-site leasing agents to directly enter the corporate information into the system, which returns a credit score and corporate lease recommendation. The enhancement effectively eliminates the application shuffle and eliminates the need for on-site staff to manage evaluations and make credit determinations.
&ldquo;LeasingDesk is always looking for new ways to increase functionality of the screening process based on client needs,&rdquo; said David Carner, senior vice president of LeasingDesk. &ldquo;By adding the corporate housing component into our system, we eliminate the guessing game. With a better recommendation model, owners reduce risk and can increase profitability by capitalizing on this new stream of steady income.&rdquo;
The offering mitigates risk with a broader review of an applicant company&rsquo;s financial standing by examining its legitimacy and credit score against current market conditions. Once the company has been approved for corporate leasing, the company-placed resident is processed through LeasingDesk&rsquo;s criminal screening databases, further decreasing exposure to risk. Now with an accurate, efficient and consistent corporate credit rating, and an approved resident, owners gain a more comprehensive scoring model that...]]>

Essex, a public REIT with 133 communities, initiated a pilot assessment of Price Optimizer on three properties in September 2007. Based on initial positive results at those three sites, Essex deployed Price Optimizer at an additional 20 properties in December 2007. Following a comprehensive measurement of performance results at all 23 trial properties, Essex decided to deploy Price Optimizer for the remainder of its portfolio.
&ldquo;Essex is always looking for ways to continue to outperform the market, and revenue management was a logical next step for us,&rdquo; stated Erik J. Alexander, senior vice president for Essex, who has an extensive background in portfolio management, pricing strategy and demand analysis. &ldquo;In our decision to test Price Optimizer, Essex was looking for a way to grow revenue and bring greater standardization and efficiency to the rent setting process. We found that Price Optimizer not only provided us with enhanced visibility into key operational metrics, but also provided the operations team with the confidence necessary to aggressively price units when conditions warranted. We also found the system to proactively push rental rates while managing occupancy to a more consistent level. The results have been impressive.&rdquo;
&ldquo;I&rsquo;m so pleased to have another successful implementation of Price Optimizer for a customer using Yardi property management software,&rdquo; stated Janine Steiner Jovanovic, president, M/PF YieldStar Asset Optimization Systems. &ldquo;There has been a misconception that Price Optimizer only works with RealPage OneSite property management software.

(March 21, 2008) &mdash; LeasingDeskTM Insurance Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of RealPage, Inc., and a leading provider of point of lease systems for the multifamily industry, along with American Modern Insurance Group, the major underwriter of its liability and renter&rsquo;s insurance policies, today announced efforts to expedite the claims process for its 47 policyholders living at the Fulton Cotton Mill Lofts, impacted by the recent tornado in Atlanta. The community was severely damaged, destroying personal property and displacing some residents.
&ldquo;Considering the magnitude of damage to the community, it is very fortunate no one was seriously injured,&rdquo; said Dirk Wakeham, president of LeasingDesk. &ldquo;Our immediate priority is to take care of our policyholders and make resources available to all residents of the property during this exceptionally difficult time.&rdquo;
To provide prompt assistance at the community, a team of representatives from American Modern has opened a catastrophe claim office onsite to expedite the claims process. The team is also providing Internet access and cell phone use for affected residents insured by other carriers to assist them in reaching family members or in contacting other insurance providers to file claims.
As of March 21, American Modern has filed 20 &lsquo;wind damage&rsquo; claims, a covered peril in the resident&rsquo;s renter&rsquo;s insurance policy. Based on the extent of personal damages and individual need, qualifying residents will receive cash advances to assist with additional living expenses. Information is being distributed to residents regarding temporary housing available through the Red Cross.
&ldquo;The time following a natural disaster is the most difficult and emotionally stressful for anyone affected by this type of event,&rdquo; said Bob Crowley, Vice Pre...]]>

        <![CDATA[(March 19, 2008) &ndash; RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the multifamily industry, today announced receipt of its final 2007 SAS 70 Type II report for the period ended December 15, 2007, assessing the company&rsquo;s compliance with a set of control objectives, specified by the management of RealPage and designed to ensure the integrity of transaction processing and overall security of client data hosted applicable to its OneSite&copy; property management system. The SAS 70 service was performed by Grant Thornton LLP.
The Statement on Audit Standards No. 70 (SAS 70) was developed by the AICPA to provide guidance to client organization and their auditors who are looking to service organization such as RealPage, to perform processing and have internal controls in place that are relevant to the client organization&rsquo;s financial statements. The SAS 70 report guidance articulates the requirements for assessing four items: the fair presentation of management&rsquo;s content:encoded of controls, the suitability of the design of management&rsquo;s controls, whether the controls are in place as of a specified date, and whether the controls operated with sufficient effectiveness to determine that management&rsquo;s control objectives were achieved. The SAS 70 report may be used by external auditors of RealPage&rsquo;s clients to better understand internal controls at RealPage and the results of tests applied to those controls that would be relevant to the clients&rsquo; auditors&rsquo; performance of financial statement audits.
&ldquo;The SAS 70 report means for the fourth straight year our clients will not have to spend time and money sending their own auditors to test controls at RealPage in order to satisfy their financial reporting and controls obligations under Sarbanes-Oxley,&rdquo; said Norman Denler, Chief Technical Officer.

        <![CDATA[(March 5, 2008) &ndash; RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the multifamily industry, today announced that it has successfully launched an innovative barcode scanning feature for clients using its OneSite&copy; property management and OneSite Document Management systems.
OneSite Document Management provides electronic scanning and storage of documents and forms associated with a property management company&rsquo;s business processes and procedures. The addition of the barcode functionality significantly enhances the ability to scan documents into the system, fulfilling an essential role in automating the scan-and-file process, typically a major bottleneck for properties dealing with copious amounts of paper.
&ldquo;The ability to assign barcodes to individual invoice records in OneSite Purchasing enables property management companies to quickly import large quantities of paper invoices into the system,&rdquo; said Clark Willey, vice president of product development for RealPage. &ldquo;Property managers will notice significant time savings and error reduction.&rdquo;
The system enables users to generate cover sheets containing barcodes or barcode labels that contain identification information for resident documents or invoice records in the system. These barcodes can then be associated with the signed lease documents or paper invoices prior to scanning back into the system. This allows users to bulk scan documents directly into OneSite Document Management where, based on the information read from the barcode, the electronic images are automatically routed and filed in association with the record in the system.
&ldquo;The barcode functionality offers significant time savings for us when scanning stacks of invoices into Document Management,&rdquo; said Allyson Andrews of Carter Haston. &ldquo;I was able to scan over 100 invoices into the system with only a few clicks. I wish everything I do at work was this simple!&rdquo;

(February 6, 2008) &ndash; RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the multifamily industry, today announced its acquisition of WebRoomz&trade;, an on-demand leasing system for students and military personnel.
WebRoomz has been widely covered by the press, including The New York Times, Good Morning America and other media, for its novel approach to matching students with compatible roommates and other capabilities tailored to student housing. WebRoomz improves the efficiency of the &ldquo;turn&rdquo; that occurs each year as students and their parents descend on student housing communities across the country over a compressed one week period just before school begins.
According to Tom Ratchford, president of WebRoomz, &ldquo;we&rsquo;ve invested five years and more than $10 million to build a system that helps attract students to our clients&rsquo; properties, match them with compatible roommates and automate the entire leasing and move-in process. We help make the turn a snap because most of the heavy lifting has been completed long before move-in day arrives. We&rsquo;re delighted to become affiliated with RealPage, who has established an office in Atlanta and hired the development and support team responsible for WebRoomz.&rdquo;
&ldquo;WebRoomz is a fantastic product that has proved itself in the marketplace,&rdquo; said Steve Winn, CEO of RealPage. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re adding its powerful functionality to our comprehensive suite of on-demand student living systems that include online marketing and leasing, roommate matching, property management, revenue management, convergent billing and payment services.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[Property managers and owners benefit from advanced risk evaluation
(January 14, 2008)&mdash;RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of point of lease systems for the multifamily industry, today announced the availability of broader settings within its LeasingDesk&trade; Screening system effectively improving the screening of applicants with past foreclosures. The new controls give owner/operators the ability to better evaluate risks associated from applicants with a recent home loan default.
The new controls deliver enhanced flexibility for multifamily resident screening if a prospect has a prior mortgage default. The software enables owner/operators to filter this specific credit information, acknowledging a foreclosure, but giving the option to remove it from the prospect&rsquo;s overall credit score. Owner/operators gain a greater capacity to recognize quality residents by adjusting the settings to require additional conditions for residency with a foreclosure or automatically deny an application if the risk is too great.
&ldquo;The escalating collapse of subprime mortgage lending precipitated the need to give our customers more flexibility in assessing risk,&rdquo; said David Carner, senior vice president of business development for LeasingDesk Screening. &ldquo;These new settings allow owner/operators to further distinguish between a high financial risk and an applicant who may have fallen victim to the mortgage boom a few years ago.&rdquo;
As the impact from the subprime fallout on the multifamily industry is still unknown, being able to dig deeper into the payment history of an applicant is of high priority.
To further protect owner/operators during the screening process, RealPage&rsquo;s rental payment database, Renter&rsquo;s Performance&trade;, can review and track the rent payment behaviors of resident&rsquo;s with and without foreclosures but comparable credit ratings. RealPage will analyze the payment behaviors through the first quarter of 2008 and inco...]]>

Made first available to the attendees of the National Multi Housing Council&rsquo;s Annual Apartment Technology Conference (October 28-30, 2007, Dallas, Texas), the white paper, sponsored and underwritten by RealPage, examines the business value an integrated document management system can have on the multifamily industry. It predicts that document management systems will make it considerably easier to share information and conduct transactions in all aspects of the multifamily business, generate significant efficiencies and financial value, and accelerate business practices that depend on reliable record retrieval.
About the OneSite&reg; Document Management SystemRealPage is the first software provider to offer a document management system exclusively for the multifamily industry with its OneSite Document Management System. It provides storage, retrieval, security and archiving of all documents and forms associated with a property management company&rsquo;s business processes and procedures.
But it is more than just an electronic library: for the first time, the multifamily industry has access to a suite of products that supports the entire leasing process from lease application through execution of a signed lease.
Online applicants are presented with all necessary documents and walked step by step through the process. Personal information only has to be entered once&mdash;it is automatically inserted into all the necessary forms.

(October 22, 2007)&mdash;LeasingDeskTM Insurance Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of RealPage, Inc., and a leading provider of point of lease systems to the multifamily industry, today announced the availability of its new insurance supplement, RenterProtectionTM. This cost-effective program allows owners to purchase a policy that protects against financial loss due to resident-caused damages related to water, fire, smoke or explosion in residential units.
&ldquo;Residents don&rsquo;t always understand the importance of having renter&rsquo;s insurance, leaving owners vulnerable to financial loss,&rdquo; explained Dirk Wakeham, president of LeasingDesk. &ldquo;With monthly premiums between four and six dollars per unit, RenterProtection gives owners an inexpensive risk management tool. It protects their assets and enhances their ability to reduce exposure related to unpredictable damages that often fall below the traditional property insurance deductible.&rdquo;
Although similar to the liability portion in traditional renter&rsquo;s insurance policies, the solution provides $25,000 to $100,000 in supplemental coverage for damage caused by water, fire, smoke or explosion. Owners utilizing RenterProtection will not incur costs due to gaps in coverage from below-deductible claims or damages caused by residents without insurance. The program can even extend coverage to vacant units. An owner may also opt to insure a property&rsquo;s common areas against resident-caused damages at a cost of $15.00 a month per structure.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars can be lost due to accidents or resident negligence. For example, in a recent survey conducted by the National Fire Protection Agency, 94,000 apartment fires resulted in close to $1 billion in loss and damages in 2005, a 7.1 percent increase over the previous year. The average cost per fire incident exceeded $10,000, which can have a great im...]]>

ARES, a leading provider of service bureau and contract administration services, will leverage the power of OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents Affordable Service Bureau to provide expert compliance monitoring and reporting. Apartment owners and managers of both large and small portfolios will now be able to manage their properties more cost-effectively while keeping in compliance with all government regulations.
&ldquo;I know this new partnership will provide our clients with new and improved services,&rdquo; said Mike McKenzie, president of ARES. &ldquo;This will be great for the owners to have real-time access to their data.&rdquo;
ARES is the second service bureau to choose OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents Affordable Service Bureau as its on-demand solution. In September 2006, Paulhus &amp; Associates, a leading provider of contract administration, training and subsidy recovery services located in Pennsylvania, adopted the system in its first month of release.
&ldquo;We are very excited to partner with Able Real Estate Services, a long-time RealPage client,&rdquo; said Ranjeev Teelock, vice president of affordable housing for RealPage. &ldquo;Like Paulhus and Associates, ARES&rsquo; new offering will benefit owners and managers who do not want to invest in purchasing software and training leasing consultants on compliance.&rdquo;
The software reduces the cost of maintaining subsidized sites by eliminating the need for a full-time, on-site compliance expert.

        <![CDATA[Launches renter&rsquo;s and liability insurance program in Florida
(June 7, 2007) &mdash; LeasingDesk Insurance Services, the leading provider of risk management solutions for the multifamily industry, today announced the availability of its flagship program, eRenterPlanSM Preferred, in the Florida market. The program, which provides renter&rsquo;s and liability insurance, is now available to residents in all 50 states.
&ldquo;Entering Florida is a great success for LeasingDesk,&rdquo; explains Dirk Wakeham, president of LeasingDesk. &ldquo;With the state&rsquo;s new stringent insurance regulations, many other insurance providers are moving out. By taking the extra effort and time to meet the requirements, LeasingDesk is now the only renter&rsquo;s insurance provider in all 50 states.&rdquo;
After suffering through significant hurricane seasons, the Florida state legislature passed House Bill 1-A in an effort to protect residents against substantial insurance rate increases. This move ultimately changed the face of insurance coverage and rates in the state.
American Modern Insurance Group (American Modern), the underwriter for eRenterPlan Preferred, worked diligently to help LeasingDesk enter this complex market.
&ldquo;House Bill 1-A made the insurance landscape completely different,&rdquo; says Kendall Dewing, product manager for American Modern. &ldquo;There are more requirements, additional mandated coverage, and different forms and execution of those forms. We had to revamp our terminology, essentially creating a separate program for Florida.&rdquo;
eRenterPlan is a cost-free risk management solution for owners that transfers risk back to the resident, where it belongs. This easy-to-implement, customized program boasts automatic resident pre-approval and statewide rates with transferable coverage. It integrates seamlessly with most property management software.

        <![CDATA[(June 4, 2007)&mdash;UDR, Inc. (NYSE:UDR &ndash; News) today announced that it has completed an extensive evaluation of two leading revenue management systems. The Company compared the pricing results with a set of control properties using the Company&rsquo;s current pricing method. The test was conducted at operating communities, with resident prospects accepting or rejecting the rental terms. In addition, the Company evaluated more than a dozen user- and business-need criteria relating to ease of use, training, implementation and integration with existing software and processes.
&ldquo;Today&rsquo;s announcement to deploy YieldStar&copy; as our revenue management software is consistent with our strategy to transform operations,&rdquo; stated Thomas W. Toomey, President and CEO. &ldquo;We are an industry leader in web based marketing and lead generation and are committed to utilizing technology to increase efficiency, drive profitability and effectively serve customers. We will continue to work with the YieldStar&copy; team to customize the application for our business needs, demonstrating our commitment to value creation through innovation.&rdquo;
&ldquo;Our onsite associates provided valuable real-world analysis of both systems and we engaged pricing and business process experts in a rigorous side-by-side test of our current pricing process against these well respected systems,&rdquo; stated Martha Carlin, Executive Vice President, Property Operations. &ldquo;Revenue management encompasses a lot more than an algorithm generating monthly rent. YieldStar&copy; was easily adopted by our communities, and its workflow and usability are consistent with how we do business &ndash; now and in the near future as we transform operations in our Operations 2.0 initiative.

The Document Management System employs EMC&rsquo;s Centra&reg; Governance Edition to provide trustworthy storage of electronic records and other digital information required for compliance and governance purposes. Critical documents such as resident leases and tenant income certifications are retained and managed in a manner that better ensures admissibility, promotes evidentiary strength and supports governance processes.
&ldquo;The Document Management System enables property management companies to maintain an electronic file system for their properties,&rdquo; said Ranjeev Teelock, vice president of affordable housing for RealPage. &ldquo;Property managers don&rsquo;t have to worry about sending mounds of paperwork to the home office.

Documents can be downloaded and customized to meet the needs of each company or property. The Forms Library within the system ensures that properties are using the most up-to-date versions and templates.

(April 16, 2007) &ndash; RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the multifamily industry, today announced the acquisition of Multifamily Internet Ventures, LLC, the Irvine, California-based parent company of LeasingDesk Insurance ServicesTM.
LeasingDesk, the largest provider of resident insurance programs for the multifamily industry, is now a wholly owned subsidiary of RealPage. Dirk Wakeham, president and CEO, will continue to manage day-to-day operations, and current employees and sales professionals will remain with the company.
&ldquo;This strategic acquisition strengthens RealPage&rsquo;s robust risk management solution and provides multifamily owners with the most comprehensive platform for managing their businesses effectively and profitably,&rdquo; said Steve Winn, CEO of RealPage. &ldquo;As the industry continues the widespread adoption of full-participation renter&rsquo;s insurance, our ability to seamlessly offer, verify and maintain insurance coverage as an extension of OneSite&copy; is a win-win situation for both owners and residents.&rdquo;

RealPage put the new system into general release earlier this month.
The service bureau software leverages the power of OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents Affordable to enable service bureaus to provide expert compliance monitoring and reporting.

The service bureau will reduce the amount of time and money spent maintaining compliance with HUD, resulting in reduced operating expenses and increased profits.&rdquo;
Paulhus &amp; Associates is the first company to partner with RealPage to provide the service bureau offering.
&ldquo;This is going to revolutionize the industry,&rdquo; said Cheryl Paulhus, president of Paulhus &amp; Associates. &ldquo;Using this new system, site owners and property management agencies will have the benefit of an experienced subsidized occupancy specialist completing each submission, allowing on-site personnel to concentrate on the other aspects of managing the properties.

The certification was performed by Grant Thornton, LLP.
The SAS 70 was developed by the AICPA to allow hosting service providers such as RealPage to show that they have processes and controls in place to provide a stable and secure environment that can perform transaction processing and safely exchange company data. The SAS 70 may also be used by external auditors of RealPage&rsquo;s clients to better understand internal controls at RealPage and tests applied to those controls that would be relevant to the auditors&rsquo; performance of financial statement audits.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re thrilled about the SAS 70 report,&rdquo; said Jim Charles, senior vice president of operations at RealPage. &ldquo;It means for second straight year our clients will not have to spend time and money sending their own auditors to audit RealPage in order to satisfy their financial reporting and controls obligations under Sarbanes-Oxley.&rdquo;
In addition to helping customers meet reporting requirements, the report provides evidence to RealPage customers that the company maintains a rigorous set of internal controls for the protection of its clients&rsquo; data. &ldquo;This has always been a priority for us, but these days it&rsquo;s not just critical, it&rsquo;s required,&rdquo; said Charles.
RealPage plans to continue to complete SAS 70 examinations going forward. The company has already received security certification from Cybertrust and privacy certification from TRUSTe.

        <![CDATA[(September 12, 2005)&mdash;RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of on-demand software and services to the multifamily industry, today announced that its YieldStarTM asset optimization systems are already producing positive results for staff at Camden Property Trust.
The YieldStar systems were developed to help owners and managers optimize asset values through revenue management, portfolio management, and market intelligence. They combine the market research intelligence of M/PF YieldStar&mdash;which is celebrating its 44th anniversary&mdash;with the on-demand functionality found in RealPage&rsquo;s OneSite&reg;, CrossFireTM and VelocityTM systems. Camden began a pilot of YieldStar at five properties earlier this year.
&ldquo;We knew that the metrics in YieldStar worked because the metrics are what represent the best practices of our community managers,&rdquo; said Keith Oden, President and COO of Camden Property Trust. &ldquo;We were really testing more functionality than we were theory. I don&rsquo;t need to be sold on the theory of revenue management. I&rsquo;ve seen it in too many other industries and it is past time for us to be doing something more sophisticated.&rdquo;
Jeffrey Roper, president of M/PF YieldStar, sees YieldStar as the strategic first stage in developing a comprehensive revenue management program for focusing on top-line NOI. &ldquo;YieldStar enables you to quickly identify opportunities where you are underpricing or threats where you are overpricing a particular floor plan,&rdquo; said Roper. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s a powerful tool for optimizing rental revenue for both stable and lease-up properties, using advanced market response and forecasting models to make daily rent recommendations. It also recommends optimal new and renewal floor plan and unit-level rents that consistently maximize revenue.&rdquo;
It&rsquo;s those recommendations that have been met with much approval from the staff at Camden. &ldquo;What primarily encouraged us was the acce...]]>

        <![CDATA[(July 29, 2005)&mdash;RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of products and services to the multifamily industry, today announced that it has put into general release the latest version of its web-based affordable system, OneSite&reg; Leasing &amp; Rents Affordable.
This new version features tools that improve the efficiency of site personnel, ensure compliance with both HUD and tax credits codes and regulations and provide property managers with greater ability to track multiple subsidies. OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents Affordable manages both HUD subsidies and low income housing tax credits (LIHTC) properties in a single, simple user interface. The system also computes residents&rsquo; rents and automatically selects the most appropriate subsidies.
"Property owners can now leverage new functionality to improve their cash flows while streamlining procedures to stay in compliance," said Ranjeev Teelock, vice president of affordable housing for RealPage. "Personnel can centrally manage HAP vouchers, special claims and certifications across their entire portfolio from one screen."
OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents Affordable is equipped with a central processing feature that allows property managers to use simple dashboards to perform site functions. Another new feature is the Special Claims Finder that roots out all unclaimed vacancy and damage claims. This time-saving feature prompts users to investigate legitimate claims and generates the necessary paperwork for filing.
OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents Affordable also comes with CA NetTM, a secure network that links affordable property sites to contract administrators (CAs) for real-time exchange of TRACS, special claims and other management information. Sites can now submit TRACS data error free&mdash;ensuring that 100 percent of the HAP voucher requests are collected. CA Net is only available for OneSite customers and CAs using HDS software.

&nbsp;
(June 15, 2005) &mdash; Intacct Corporation, the leading provider of ERP On Demand, today announced three revolutionary platform services, including CustomERP&trade; &mdash; the first software-as-a-service customization product for creating and delivering cross-application business processes over the Internet. Companies no longer require programming resources and expensive middleware for their ERP system to talk to external legacy and Web-native applications. When a sales order is entered, for example, Intacct automatically updates the customer record in the CRM and the inventory list in the warehouse management system &mdash; even if those applications are hosted outside Intacct&rsquo;s infrastructure.
Until today, no other on-demand solution has demonstrated the capability to automatically share real-time information between disparate applications.
As large and midsize companies struggle to integrate and manage diverse, stand-alone systems, Intacct also unveils ConnectERP&trade;, a powerful Web services integration platform, and ManageERP&trade;, an easy-to-use Web portal for deploying and managing applications, customizations and integrations across multiple sites and users.
CustomERP, ConnectERP and ManageERP elevate Intacct&rsquo;s ERP application suite to a strategic platform for enterprise users and software developers to build industry-specific business solutions with data, application and business process integration and customization. As a result, companies can expect reduced operating costs, higher productivity and increased revenues.
CORESense Inc., a leading provider of on-demand retail management software, expects sales to increase more than 20% within 12 months of embedding Intacct&rsquo;s ERP On Demand suite.

(June 2, 2005) &mdash; NWP Services Corporation (NWP), a leading provider of utility expense management, submetering, resident utility billing and payment solutions to the multihousing industry, announced today that it has introduced new billing data transfer technology through an agreement with RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of products and services to the multifamily industry.
Called the NWP/RealPage Convergent Billing Interface (CBI), this advanced data transfer solution will allow resident information to be transferred to NWP from OneSite&copy; using XML technology. The CBI improves the timeliness and accuracy of bills sent by NWP to residents while also creating efficiencies for property managers and IT support staff. It will be available to mutual customers of NWP Services and RealPage&rsquo;s OneSite version 3.0 or later.
&ldquo;Not only will the CBI improve the quality of our resident utility billing service, but it will also simplify the data transfer process for property managers while creating efficiencies and increasing scalability at NWP,&rdquo; stated Michael Radice, president of NWP Services. Radice added, &ldquo;We are very pleased to be formally working with RealPage, an innovative company that has been a true leader in the multihousing industry, to offer this solution for our mutual customers.&rdquo;
According to Steve Winn, CEO of RealPage, &ldquo;It is important to RealPage that we provide our customers with the management solutions they require to simplify and streamline their business processes. We feel strongly that by working with NWP Services to build and offer an advanced data transfer solution, we are best meeting the needs of our OneSite customers.&rdquo;

The Pleco Group offers utility meter installation, reading and maintenance services for water, gas and electric utility meters. The company also offers a powerful billing system that captures submetered or RUBS charges and generates monthly bills to residents, as well as vacant unit energy cost recovery services.
RealPage intends to combine the services offered by The Pleco Group with its new on-demand convergent billing system that merges water, energy, rent, late fees and other small balances into a single resident invoice and market the product under the trade name &ldquo;Velocity&trade;.&rdquo;
According to Steve Winn, president and CEO of RealPage, &ldquo;Reading, billing and collections companies (RBCs) offer a valuable service to help owners recover energy and water utility charges. RealPage will continue to support interfaces to the utility billing systems offered by the major RBCs. However, we also want to offer our own convergent billing product that merges all charges owed by the resident into a single bill and deliver this service for substantially less cost than currently charged by the RBC industry.&rdquo;
Winn also announced the new executive team for Velocity. Ashley Chaffin, former vice president of Form Genus LLC and senior manager with McKinsey &amp; Co., will lead the new division as president. &ldquo;This is an exciting time for our company and for our customers,&rdquo; said Chaffin. &ldquo;This acquisition will only serve to strengthen our ability to grow and improve the outstanding service that customers have come to expect.

        <![CDATA[(April 6, 2005)&mdash;RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of products and services to the multifamily industry, today announced receipt of its final SAS 70 Type II audit report assessing the company&rsquo;s compliance with a rigorous set of control objectives designed to ensure the integrity of transaction processing and overall security of client data hosted by RealPage. The certification was performed by Grant Thornton, LLP.
The SAS 70 was developed by the AICPA to allow hosting service providers such as RealPage to show that they have processes and controls in place to provide a stable and secure environment that can perform transaction processing and safely exchange company data. The SAS 70 may also be used by external auditors of RealPage&rsquo;s clients to better understand internal controls at RealPage and tests applied to those controls that would be relevant to the auditors&rsquo; performance of financial statement audits.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re thrilled about the SAS 70 report,&rdquo; said Jim Charles, chief operating officer at RealPage. &ldquo;It means our clients will not have to spend time and money sending their own auditors to audit RealPage in order to satisfy their financial reporting and controls obligations under Sarbanes-Oxley.&rdquo;
In addition to helping customers meet reporting requirements, the report provides evidence to RealPage customers that the company maintains a rigorous set of internal controls for the protection of its clients&rsquo; data. &ldquo;This has always been a priority for us, but these days it&rsquo;s not just critical, it&rsquo;s required,&rdquo; said Charles.
RealPage plans to complete SAS 70 examinations going forward. The company has already received security certification from TruSecure.

(April 4, 2005)&mdash;Housing and Development Software (HDS), a provider of software and management solutions to housing finance and community development agencies, and RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of products and services to the multifamily industry, today announced the availability of CA Net&trade;, which links affordable property sites to contract administrators (CAs) for real-time, secure exchange of TRACS, Special Claims and other management information.
Until now, the TRACS reporting process has involved a frustrating, time-consuming and pressured &ldquo;back and forth&rdquo; between sites and CAs to validate data for submission to HUD. This monthly reporting process can tie up 40 percent of the average site staff&rsquo;s time. Further, reimbursements for Special Claims are often overlooked due to incomplete data.
The integration with CAs will solve both problems through automation, replacing the inefficient manual processes that have impacted efficiency, HUD compensation and profitability in the affordable sector.
CA Net automatically identifies any missing or incorrect information coming from the properties so that it can be quickly and easily addressed before submission to the CAs or HUD. Both properties and CAs are able to easily meet their reporting deadlines, with accurate information, and with greatly reduced use of staff time.
&ldquo;The days of panicking as reporting deadlines loom are over,&rdquo; said Ranjeev Teelok, vice president of affordable housing at RealPage. &ldquo;CA Net will revolutionize and streamline the affordable sector as a whole.&rdquo;
&ldquo;Our new web-based solutions for affordable properties are quickly becoming the industry standard, and HDS has been the leader in CA software for a number of years,&rdquo; Teelock added. &ldquo;Now, customers will have the best of both worlds, and a seamless link between sites and CAs tha...]]>

Under the agreement, RealPage will include Intacct as a financial component of OneSite, an integrated suite of property management tools that helps property owners and managers streamline business processes.
&ldquo;When we decided to extend the OneSite product line, we were faced with a build-or-buy decision in regards to a back-office accounting application,&rdquo; said Steve Winn, CEO of RealPage. &ldquo;We chose to team with Intacct because it is a software-as-services technology leader, one that we can work closely with over the coming years to ensure that the best quality products are available for the multifamily industry.&rdquo;
By adding the financial application to OneSite, RealPage now offers the only end-to-end solution for the multifamily industry. All financial transactions from the other OneSite components&mdash;leasing, rents, screening and purchasing&mdash;now flow automatically into accounting, where the data is used for multiple-budgets comparison and customized reporting. With centralized control of cash flow and vendor relations, OneSite users can simultaneously manage multiple sites.

OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents Tax Credits automates compliance monitoring and reporting for tax credits properties, driving compliance at the site level. The system gathers and processes data accurately and intuitively to avoid costly recapture situations, assuring site managers that LIHTC rules are checked and enforced when qualifying prospects, re-certifying residents and monitoring program-applicable fractions.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve taken the guesswork and uncertainty out of managing tax credits properties,&rdquo; said Ranjeev Teelock, vice president of affordable housing for RealPage. &ldquo;Most of the common tasks are either automated or wizard-driven, allowing users to pre-qualify, interview, credit screen and certify applicants easily while reducing errors and increasing efficiency.&rdquo;
Since the system is web-based, compliance updates, regulation changes and other application updates are seamlessly incorporated and automatically installed.
In addition to supporting the LIHTC-compliance requirements, OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents Tax Credits accommodates local and regional compliance programs. The system setup is flexible enough to accommodate virtually any type of set-aside. It generates the necessary tax credits verification letters, tenant income certification and state reporting documentation as well as supporting all state reporting requirements.
&ldquo;Because of its automation and integration, I know that all my data is accurate and all my sites are in compliance,&rdquo; said Michelle Custer, director of operations for Centrum Management. &ldquo;Plus, the documentation generated by the system for our tenant files looks professional and is easy to audit.&rdquo;

RealPage uses Intacct ERP On Demand, which is deployed on IBM&rsquo;s e-business Hosting infrastructure, to rapidly and profitably expand its market reach without increasing operational costs, raising capital expenditure and hiring IT staff. RealPage is currently adding 68 new OneSite Accounting customers, who combined manage more than 1,000 multifamily properties.
Intacct ERP On Demand enables RealPage&rsquo;s customers to execute shared business processes at multiple sites. Companies can centrally manage the financials of any number of distributed business units while permitting local managers to work with relevant numbers and reports. A vendor bill that applies to several apartment communities, for example, is paid from a shared bank account and the expenses automatically allocated.
Intacct allows RealPage to integrate its OneSite property management applications into the Intacct platform, which is architected to deliver ERP software as service &mdash; including general ledger, cash management and consolidation. More than 12,000 apartment professionals across the United States use RealPage&rsquo;s hosted OneSite suite on a daily basis to manage critical business processes, such as applicant screening, market intelligence and compliance reporting.

&ldquo;Alliance Residential was searching for a property management system that had both depth and breadth. An added attraction of the OneSite suite of products is the flexibility of adding functionality incrementally as we grow and refine our business,&rdquo; said Bob Weber, Executive Vice President of Alliance Residential. &ldquo;We found that, in comparison to other systems available, OneSite has the seamless integration and flexibility that we were seeking. It is a powerful system that is intuitive and easy to use. In addition, RealPage has the financial stability, experienced personnel and established industry experience that we thought was critical in selecting a long-term partner.&rdquo;
Other important factors in Alliance Residential&rsquo;s selection of OneSite were the implementation, training and support offered for the system. &ldquo;RealPage is known to be the experienced leader in these areas,&rdquo; said Weber. &ldquo;And since using OneSite is very intuitive, we know that it will be easier to train and implement at the site level.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[(January 15, 2003)&mdash;RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of products and services to the multifamily industry, today announced that it has acquired Resident Awards, a dynamic, web-based incentive program that offers property managers and owners an alternative to the rent concessions that are in wide use today in the industry.
&ldquo;Most property owners and managers will agree that the worst two words heard lately in the multifamily industry are &lsquo;free rent!&rsquo;&rdquo; said Steve Winn, chief executive officer of RealPage. &ldquo;Yet, rental concessions have become a prolific tool for generating leases, encouraging renewals and maintaining occupancy rates. Resident Awards provides an alternative to higher and higher concessions.&rdquo;
The Resident Awards program, which will now be offered as part of RealPage&rsquo;s OneSite&copy; integrated suite of web-based products, correlates directly to a popular trend employed in other industries: the notion of accumulating award points for airline mile redemption or for the purchase of desired items. It is a customizable incentive program that can be labeled privately to create uniformity across a portfolio.
With Resident Awards, management companies and properties can purchase point cards at wholesale prices in various denominations. Points can then be awarded to their residents for key actions such as new leases, renewals or referrals. Once an account is established, points can be banked for future use or redeemed for airline miles with major carriers or for gifts across more than 20 categories.
Brock MacLean, principal of Resident Awards, has joined the company as vice president of sales. MacLean will head up sales of RealPage&rsquo;s OneSite property marketing systems, which help property managers capture more leads and convert a higher percentage of those leads into leases.

&ldquo;Lane Company selected OneSite after an exhaustive analysis of the industry&rsquo;s web-based property management providers,&rdquo; said Bill Donges, Lane&rsquo;s chief operating officer. &ldquo;Given the scale of our operations at Lane, we felt that we needed a large, stable company with experience in managing mission-critical applications, and RealPage fit that requirement.&rdquo;
&ldquo;We will first deploy RealPage&rsquo;s OneSite Screening, a comprehensive statistical outcome&mdash;based scoring system that helps filter out poor credit risks before they lease apartments,&rdquo; said Donges. &ldquo;The system also accesses a proprietary database of over 30 million criminal records and has extensive eviction database coverage in the Southeast.&rdquo;
&ldquo;In addition, OneSite Screening is tightly integrated with OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents, the core product of the OneSite suite, which automates the leasing process from electronic guest card through execution of the final lease documents,&rdquo; he added. &ldquo;This integration allows prospect information to flow seamlessly from screening into the resident management process.&rdquo;
Donges noted that other OneSite product centers and resources will be implemented after OneSite Screening, including OneSite Leasing &amp; Rents, OneSite Property, OneSite Facilities with mobile work orders, OneSite Portfolio, OneSite Call Genie and OneSite Rent Genie with ACH transactions.

YieldStar is designed to help property owners optimize pricing of apartment inventory using sophisticated yield models that adjust apartment rents in real time to reflect imbalances in supply and demand.
According to Paul Mitnick, chief product officer of RealPage, &ldquo;YieldStar provides an excellent, field-tested foundation for our OneSite&copy; Revenue Management system, which will be released later this year. Our revenue management design team has been working closely with Camden since early this year and together we have defined enhancements based on feedback from actual usage of the system. With the addition of real-time data from popular property management systems, including OneSite, Rent Roll&trade; and AMSI, and comparable peer pricing provided by M/PF Research, a wholly owned subsidiary of RealPage, the acquisition of YieldStar provides a platform for a fully functional yield management system for the multifamily industry.&rdquo;
Laurie Baker, vice president of property services for Camden, added, &ldquo;Yield management is an accepted method of pricing in other sectors of the economy, such as the airline and the hotel industries. However, the apartment industry still relies on manual methods to set prices that, in many instances, are far from optimal. By applying state-of-the-art yield management techniques to our industry, we hope to improve shareholder value significantly by optimizing the revenue generated from the more than 52,000 apartment homes owned by Camden around the country.&rdquo;

Using an Ericsson R289LX with AT&amp;T service, LaSalle Group&rsquo;s Maple Knoll Townhomes in Maplewood, Minn. completed the first wireless work order.
&ldquo;With OneSite Facilities, our staff is now able to view a list of work orders, select one, enter the time and complete the work order, all without touching a desktop computer,&rdquo; said Jeff Siler, system administrator for LaSalle. &ldquo;We are very excited about this new technology because it allows us to respond faster to the needs of ourresidents.&rdquo;&nbsp;
OneSite Facilities is one of nine product centers from RealPage&rsquo;s web-based property management system. It allows property managers to process and track work orders so they can capture and analyze maintenance activities accurately, then act to lower costs and improve efficiency. It also allows them to streamline maintenance services,resulting in faster responses to resident needs.
&ldquo;The system we have created is the foundation for our wireless technology component,&rdquo; said Dean Schmidt, chief operating officer of RealPage. RealPage acquired ChannelTECH, Inc., a leading multifamily wireless provider, in November 2000. The acquisition combined the web technology initiatives under development at RealPage with ChannelTECH&rsquo;s pioneering success in facility management applications for handheld computing devices.

(November 5, 2001) &mdash; RealPage, Inc., a leading provider of property management products and services to the multifamily industry, today announced that its OneSiteTM Facilities product center is now available.
OneSite Facilities allows property managers to process and track work orders so they can capture and analyze maintenance activities accurately, and then act to lower costs and improve efficiency.

RealPage recognizes the strategic value of maintenance management.
OneSite Facilities helps property owners and managers realize significant competitive advantages by streamlining the management, control, and acquisition of maintenance services and repair parts.&rdquo; OneSite Facilities automates the entire work order process. Its service issues expert system helps requestors describe the serviceissues and then automatically processes the request data.
&ldquo;The system we have created will be the foundation for our wireless technology component,&rdquo; said Winn. RealPage acquired ChannelTECH, Inc., a leading multifamily wireless provider, in November 2000. The acquisition combined the web technology initiatives under development at RealPage with ChannelTECH&rsquo;s pioneering success in handheld wireless computing devices for facility management applications.

Steve Winn, chairman of the board for RealPage, will assume the additional role of chief executive officer.
Melson joined RealPage in December 1998 when his company, RealPage Communications, Inc. merged with Rent Roll, Inc.

&ldquo;A few years ago, Steve Winn and I found that we shared a common vision for the future of property management,&rdquo; said Melson. &ldquo;We believed that the combined forces of our companies would accelerate the development of the next generation of Internet-based property management software. With our new OneSite&trade; web-based property management system, we have done just that. However, my long-term interests have always been in the management consulting area, and now that we have successfully launched the initial application in our suite of OneSite products centers, I am anxious to return to the consulting arena.&rdquo;

Reports were added for Atlanta and Phoenix at year-end 1999.
M/PF continues to publish its in-depth local report for Dallas/Fort Worth and its U.S. summary report that tracks 57 markets nationwide.
&ldquo;M/PF has an exciting new initiative and strategic direction,&rdquo; said G. Ronald Witten, president of M/PF. &ldquo;Since becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of RealPage, Inc. last July, we have charted an aggressive expansion program for M/PF&rsquo;s apartment databases, reports and market research.&rdquo;
Over the balance of this year and 2001, M/PF will add detailed local apartment market research coverage in three to four new cities each quarter.
To accomplish this challenging rollout of market research efforts, M/PF has decided to discontinue its service to the D/FW commercial real estate markets. Accordingly, M/PF has reached an agreement to sell its commercial real estate databases and web applications to Dallas-based Roddy Information Services (RIS), Inc. These databases cover the office, industrial and retail markets and contain detailed building characteristics, space availability and rental rates on more than 10,000 buildings throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth region. Plans call for continued quarterly updates of the information and distribution of these results in an online form. In addition, DFW Real Smart, the database search engine that provides subscribers with Internet access to submarket and building-specific data, has been purchased by RIS as well.
&ldquo;We concluded that because of our expansion and commitment to the apartment housing industry, we simply couldn&rsquo;t maintain the quality level that our clients expect and deserve in our D/FW commercial real estate research,&rdquo; said Witten. &ldquo;Since Rod...]]>

        <![CDATA[(December 20, 1999) &ndash; Completions in the Dallas office market continue to run ahead of demand. During the last six months of 1999, 3.6 million square feet of new multitenant space was delivered in metropolitan Dallas. Demand for multitenant space totaled less than half that amount, with 1.6 million square feet of space absorbed.
Build-to-suit corporate facilities again took a big bite out of overall absorption potential. Single-user buildings delivered in the last half of 1999 totaled nearly 1.6 million square feet.
&ldquo;Overall demand remains very strong,&rdquo; said M/PF Research president Ron Witten, &ldquo;but more and more large space users are opting for private campus settings instead of traditional multitenant projects. Total office space absorption in Dallas during calendar 1999 reached its highest level since 1986. However, we&rsquo;re still struggling to fill up all of the new multitenant buildings coming on stream because about half of 1999&rsquo;s demand went to single-tenant projects.&rdquo;
Occupancy in Dallas multitenant space stood at 80% as of December 1999. Occupancy dipped 3 points during the past year and now is 6 points off the peak established just before new space started to pour into the market during early 1998. Quoted rents for new leases in the Dallas office market average $21.73/sq ft (full-service rates). Rents have been essentially flat since the middle of 1998. Class A buildings now command rents averaging $24.74/sq ft.
&ldquo;The good news is that market conditions are in the process of stabilizing,&rdquo; said Witten. &ldquo;Multitenant space scheduled for delivery in year 2000 drops more than three-fourths from 1999&rsquo;s aggressive slate of completions, and that reduced level of new supply falls well within recent demand capacity. Single-tenant users will continue to capture much of total demand, however, since another 1.8 million square feet of build-to-suit space is already under construction.&rdquo;

        <![CDATA[(July 29, 1999) &ndash;  RealPage, Inc., the leading provider of multifamily property management software and services, has leased 98,000 square feet of new office space in Billingsley Phase VI, a Billingsley Property Services property located at 4000 International Parkway in Carrollton, Texas.

The RealPage offices, which will occupy the first two floors, will include a 125-seat auditorium, data center, command center, training center, two libraries, and storyboarding rooms.
According to Jim Melson, chief executive officer of RealPage, the design and architecture of the building was a perfect fit for RealPage&rsquo;s needs.
&ldquo;This building offers us the opportunity to showcase our technology initiatives,&rdquo; said Melson. &ldquo;We liked not only the open architecture of the building, which is inviting to clients, but the layout of the building, which allows us to work in an environment where we can continue the collaborative efforts between different teams within the company.&rdquo;
RealPage&rsquo;s corporate offices, located on Midway in Carrollton, will move into the building in November, as will the Web Services Division of the company, which is currently located on Mockingbird in Dallas
RealPage&rsquo;s most recent acquisition, M/PF Research, will relocate from its present location in Dallas. M/PF provides market research analysis of multifamily and commercial real estate markets. Its acquisition combines the Web technology initiatives under development at RealPage with the nationally acclaimed research, data, and methodologies practiced by M/PF. The eventual outcome of this unprecedented union will be availability of comprehensive, current demographic, market and performance data delivered on a real-time basis over the Internet.
