Welcome New Readers

From the Editors

By Yardi Blog Staff on Sep 28, 2012 in News

This week we are pleased to welcome all of our new readers to the Yardi Systems corporate blog, The Balance Sheet.  This is a place where you will find interesting profiles about our clients and employees, technology news, insight into real estate industry trends, and more.

As an industry leading technology companies, Yardi wants to bring you closer to the dynamic personalities and happenings from the world of real estate. You may have heard that property management is boring – we would kindly beg to disagree.

Take a look back through some of the stories we’ve shared so far. Yardi clients are a dynamic bunch, changing the world one property or project at a time. And they also have fascinating interests outside of the office. CBL & Associates’ Jody Bankston is an expert on new devices by day, and a CrossFit reality TV show star in his off hours. Dena Xifaras of Preservation of Affordable Housing moved back to her Massachusetts hometown to help working-class residents attain better homes. And Joanne Massey isn’t just a straight shooter as the controller for Fort Worth’s Sundance Square – she competes in Cowboy Silhouette rifle contests on the weekend.

A closer look at our Yardi employees also showcases some amazing folks. We’ve highlighted Yardi employees from around the globe, including people like international cricket star and Orion implementation lead Aditya Thyagarajan. From our Toronto office, Vesna Uljarevic came to Canada on a refugee visa after fleeing Sarajevo during the war – she’s now a technical account manager. And Rose Hiebert heads up the Raleigh office’s food drive each year for personal reasons. Before she came to work at Yardi, she struggled financially and had to ask for donations to eat. Find all these stories and many more in our People section.

Explore the rest of our content, where you’ll find news about the latest apps and mobile technology trends in our Technology section, as well as trending Insight from the multifamily and commercial sectors, contributed by the editors of Multi-Housing News and Commercial Property Executive.
