My Place Realty chooses Yardi to optimize operations Yardi Matrix Report highlights steady multifamily market growth

ANTA BARBARA, CA — A steady national job market and positive de- mographic trends suggest that the US multifamily market’s long run of consistent perfor- mance will continue, according to a newmarket analysis from Yardi Matrix . With the occupancy rate of stabilized properties remain- ing near 95% and wages grow- ing at a reasonable level, “rent gains should remain healthy in most metros” in 2020, the report says. Downsizing baby boomers and household-form- ing millennials have fueled demand. Yardi Matrix an- ticipates that new supply will approach 300,000 units this year, led by tech centers and popular lifestyle markets such as Seattle, Denver, Raleigh, NC, and Nashville, TN. Affordability is a growing problem and high rents are “starting to put a strain on increases in many of the high- er-cost metros,” according to the report. Other potential tailwinds include slowing economic growth in Europe and China, trade tensions with Beijing and unrest in the Middle East. But, barring a major shock, “the fundamen- tals of supply, demand and cost of capital remain very well balanced and indicate continued steady growth for the foreseeable future.” Yardi Matrix offers the industry’s most comprehen- sive market intelligence tool for investment professionals, equity investors, lenders and property managers who underwrite and manage in- vestments in commercial real estate. In other Yardi news, My Place Realty , owner-man- ager of 1,800 apartment units in Winnipeg, Manitoba, is moving its portfolio to the Yardi Voyager property man- agement and accounting plat- form to drive operational performance. The company anticipates greater collaboration and improved staff productiv- ity with a single-database system. Voyager automates workflows and provides man- agers with real-time property and financial data from both desktop and mobile devices. For maintenance staff in the field, mobile access will help deliver better service to ten- ants. “My Place Realty is excited to use the Yardi platform to S
