MAXX Properties | March 02, 2023
On March 01, 2023, a leading real estate organization, MAXX Properties, plans to implement software to manage all post-resident accounts receivable by Pay Ready, a multifamily premier post-resident payment system.
Chief Operating Officer of MAXX Properties, Genevieve Bauer, joined the organization last August and focused on maximizing the cash flow and value. With more than 9,300 units and a growing inventory, Gen was aware that technology was the key to maximizing yield. With her years of expertise in strategic property management operations, she thought back to the times she had worked with Pay Ready as a supplier.
Pay Ready's platform redefines the post-resident recovery process of MAXX Properties. The platform integrates with the property management software and controls the move-out process. Its automated messaging is augmented with human interactions and follow-up. Within the CRM, the onsite teams now have a centralized repository for their notes, which can be tracked and reported in real-time. With this platform, the owners and operators can have a robust solution and customized and empathetic brand communication for residents from the start, along with a simplified payment process and final payment arrangements.
Chief Operating Officer at MAXX Properties, Genevieve Bauer, said, "Making the decision to switch to Pay Ready was simple. MAXX Properties needed to centralize its post resident recovery efforts and have true insight into the data. Pay Ready's platform provides advanced technology along with real-time data and key metrics to give our operations' team the ability to make informed data-driven decisions, moving our business forward while maximizing our post resident recovery receivables."

REAL ESTATE TECHNOLOGY, MORTGAGE AND LENDING
Lower and Opendoor | January 19, 2023
The financial services company Lower recently announced the launch of its brand new mortgage-as-a-service (MaaS) platform, which makes it simple for consumer brands to provide mortgage solutions to clients.
After conducting a successful test of the service, Opendoor, the industry-leading e-commerce platform for residential real estate transactions, has decided to outsource all its mortgage fulfillment to Lower.
Setting up an in-house mortgage lending operation has been a time-consuming task for many companies in the past. Lower's MaaS platform allows the consumer finance, banking, and real estate industries to offer a digital-first home financing experience quickly and easily, with white-labeling possibilities. It is possible to integrate it into the customer journey of the partner by using APIs and other no-code methods.
Opendoor's early adoption of Lower demonstrates that the service's distinctive combination of human skill and technology has proven successful for the Lower team.
Chelsea Wagner, newly appointed as SVP of Partnerships to oversee the new platform, remarks, "Nearly every proptech and fintech company we talk to has some version of home lending on their roadmap. It's a natural value add, but until now there wasn't a solution. Our infrastructure and expertise make us uniquely positioned to accelerate a new mortgage offering.” She further added, "We believe the demand will be high for this product as a new, easily implemented product offering for companies."

In context to the new platform, Co-Founder and CEO Dan Snyder continued, "We've taken our years of mortgage experience and processes, and allowed any business to offer mortgage to its customers. This is a big step for brands that have captive audiences but not the means or experience to offer such products. It allows companies like Opendoor to stay focused on what they do best, while adding a new product that lives up to their brand promise and expand their reach."
