Realync Corp. (“Realync”), one of the multifamily industry’s leading virtual leasing and engagement platforms, today announced it has raised $22 million in growth equity capital from Susquehanna Growth Equity, LLC (“SGE”). As a part of the transaction, Josh Elser and Aaron Flack of SGE will join the Realync Board of Directors.
Realync is a rapidly growing virtual engagement solution for the multifamily housing industry, helping thousands of apartment communities expertly market, lease, and manage their properties. The Company’s virtual services have grown rapidly amid the COVID-19 pandemic. In just four months, Realync’s user base tripled while live video tours hosted on the platform have increased by over 11,000%. Across the country, leasing professionals are harnessing Realync’s cloud platform to safely livestream, pre-record and distribute video tours to prospects and residents, facilitating a more transparent and personal housing experience despite these challenging times. Realync anticipates the demand of its platform to continue after the pandemic, given the broader popularity of convenient virtual services among consumers.
“Our team has been driven by the happiness and success of our clients since day one, and Realync has been blessed with an incredible growth path,” said Matt Weirich, Co-founder and CEO of Realync. “We knew that SGE would be the perfect, founder-friendly partner to help us continue to efficiently scale our team, product and business to meet the growing need for virtual services. We’re incredibly excited about this partnership as we further invest in our platform, team and clients.”
