Champion Real Estate Services Selects Rainmaker LRO® as Revenue Management System for Growing Portfolio
Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) July 29, 2014 -- The Rainmaker Group, the leading provider of revenue management and profit optimization solutions to the multifamily housing and gaming/hospitality industries, today announces that Champion Real Estate Services has completed the implementation of Rainmaker LRO as its software-based optimized pricing system. Rainmaker LRO’s efficiency enables Champion to keep pace with its growing portfolio, while allowing its communities to confidently set rents at market rates.
“We’ve gone from a couple hundred units to 4,000 since 2010,” says Michelle Yeager-Thornton, co-founder and chief operating officer at Champion. “With this rapid growth, our ability to manage revenue without a software-based, optimized pricing system has become very difficult. Rainmaker LRO greatly improves the efficiency of the revenue management process, increases our monthly revenue and improves our visibility of exposure.”
Rainmaker LRO has been implemented across Champion’s portfolio of 14 apartment communities, and will be utilized to maximize the value of future acquisitions. Champion selected Rainmaker LRO over other revenue management systems because of its stellar reputation in the industry, proven success and partnerships with property management systems.
“Rainmaker LRO is the only product we were able to integrate with our property management software, Rent Manager,” Yeager-Thornton says. “We also appreciate the fact that they are the pioneers in this space, have the most market share and have been helping clients maximize their revenue potential for a very long time. Although they have the resources of a large company, Rainmaker offers the personalized service of a much smaller company, which makes them a great partner.”
As the only revenue management partner in the industry that is closely integrated with all of the major property management systems, Rainmaker LRO helps create synergy between revenue management and community operations. In particular, Champion now benefits from the Rainmaker LRO integration with Rent Manager which easily and seamlessly pulls necessary information such as individual property, unit count, unit type, amenity package data as well as historical pricing, competitor and market set data to deliver real-time, optimized pricing recommendations.
“We are pleased to provide optimal pricing through this collaboration to Champion and look forward to helping them manage revenue in a growth environment,” says Andrew Rains, president of Rainmaker LRO. “The depth of our experience and leadership position in helping apartment companies of all sizes maximize revenue make us the perfect solution to help Champion, as it embarks on another growth phase and utilizes Rainmaker LRO as it acquires new communities.”
