CARROLLTON, Texas (March 15, 2010) — RealPage, Inc. (www.realpage.com), a leading provider of on-demand software and software-enabled services to the rental housing industry, today announced the launch of the RealPage Virtual Road Show, an online version of an industry-related seminar that is typically held in person. The first RealPage Virtual Road Show series began in early March and focuses on the benefits of moving from DOS to a web-based property management solution for affordable housing, including HUD, tax credits and rural housing.
"The RealPage Virtual Road Show concept gives attendees the opportunity to hear from experts in their field from the comfort of their own offices. In these days of limited travel budgets this is an attractive alternative for attending an industry-focused seminar," said Janel Ganim, director, affordable housing, at RealPage.
The RealPage Virtual Road Show will continue with weekly sessions scheduled through July 15, 2010. Ganim will host the first RealPage Virtual Road Show and attendees will hear presentations from featured speakers in the affordable housing space, including Mary Ross, president of Ross Business Development and nationally recognized expert in property management training and consulting; Jennifer DeSilva, director of Housing Assistance Payments for Southwest Housing Compliance Corporation; and representatives from property management companies who have made the switch from DOS to web-based systems. Immediately following the pre-recorded presentations will be a live question and answer session moderated by RealPage affordable housing experts.
"Attendees will learn how a web-based system makes staying in compliance easier, as well as hear the latest HUD developments and what's on the horizon for TRACS 2.0.2D," said Ganim. "Whether you manage a single property or hundreds of sites, the RealPage Virtual Road Show will help you in your decision to move to a web-based property management solution."
