    ATLANTA (PRWEB) January 17, 2012

    The Rainmaker Group, the leading provider of revenue management and profit optimization solutions to the multifamily and gaming/hospitality industries, today announces BRE Properties, a nationally recognized real estate investment trust and leading developer and manager of apartment communities in the major metropolitan markets of California and Seattle, Washington, has selected LRO for the portfolio’s revenue management solution. BRE Properties has initiated the platform implementation process across a portfolio of approximately 85 communities representing 24,000 units.

    “BRE Properties’ decision to partner with Rainmaker is an enormous win for our organization,” said Andrew Rains, executive vice president for The Rainmaker Group. “The adoption of revenue management strategies among the leading multifamily companies has grown substantially in the last year thanks to the measurable impact the software can deliver to the bottom line. With the addition of this portfolio to our client roster, LRO now represents 9 of the 13 apartment REITS in the marketplace.”

    BRE Properties conducted an extensive review process of the industry’s revenue management solutions before selecting a partner for its pricing and optimization strategies. Rainmaker’s unique corporate culture and business processes closely aligned with BRE Properties’ vision for revenue management and ultimately influenced the company’s decision.

    “We’re excited to take this next step in the evolution of our revenue management practices; we believe the LRO product will integrate well with our core platform and supercharge our pricing discipline and strategies,” said Scott Reinert, Executive Vice President, Operations for BRE. BRE’s Vice President of Business Intelligence, Steve Snell added, “We are very pleased with the selection of Rainmaker LRO as our revenue management solution. We look forward to this partnership and the opportunity to further enhance our ability to maximize revenue growth.”
