Combination Adds Core Property Management Solution to Inhabit IQ’s Residential and Commercial Product Suite
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., and PLANO, Texas, August 27, 2021 – Inhabit IQ®, a unique collective of tech-forward products serving the residential, commercial and vacation rental management industries, and ResMan®, a leading property management SaaS platform provider, today announced that Inhabit IQ has added ResMan to its suite of solutions for multifamily and commercial property management. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
ResMan offers an industry-leading property management platform that helps residential and commercial real estate managers operate more efficiently, thereby benefitting residents, managers and owners. The company’s technologies provide end-to-end visibility into both front- and back-office operations, including accounting, budgeting, maintenance, reporting, and end-to-end leasing, among other unique capabilities.
This transaction will give Inhabit IQ a core residential-focused property management solution, while further expanding Inhabit IQ’s presence in the affordable housing market. Inhabit IQ’s market-leading ancillary product offerings covering payments, screening, insurance, utility billing, document management, inspections, facility maintenance and learning management are highly complementary with ResMan, and the combination will enable the company to meet the evolving needs and priorities of property management companies. The platforms of both Inhabit IQ and ResMan will remain open to partnerships with other solutions providers, allowing customers the choice of best-in-class providers to manage and optimize performance.
“We admire the quality of ResMan’s products, team and customer-centric approach. With ResMan’s industry-leading technology platform, we will have a full suite of solutions that allow property managers for residential, commercial and vacation rental properties to seamlessly operate their businesses either exclusively with Inhabit IQ and ResMan or in partnership with other providers,” said Lisa Stinnett, CEO of Inhabit IQ. “Providing customers with flexibility and access to best-in-class solutions have been the guiding principles for both our companies. We are excited to welcome the talented ResMan team to Inhabit IQ, and look forward to further accelerating innovation across our solutions as we offer a one-stop, industry-leading platform to our clients.”
“We’re excited to join forces with Inhabit IQ and take our company to the next level as part of a premier and differentiated platform of leading property management solutions and services,” said Paul Bridgewater, CEO of ResMan. “In recent years, we have successfully scaled our customer-first service model and expanded the reach of our software platform to new segments of the industry. Inhabit IQ’s industry knowledge and collaborative approach with fast-growing tech companies make them the ideal partner to create a true industry-leading offering.”
“We are proud to have supported ResMan’s growth and expansion as the company takes this exciting next step in their journey,” said Gavin Turner, Managing Partner at Mainsail Partners, ResMan’s growth equity partner prior to today’s transaction. “Since our investment in 2017, ResMan has experienced strong organic growth as a result of key investments in people, innovation and technology, as well as transformative growth from several add-on acquisitions. We are confident ResMan will continue to accelerate its momentum and provide clients with an even stronger offering as part of Inhabit IQ. We look forward to watching their continued success.”
