YASC SB 2012So first, the bad news .. the Yardi Advanced Solutions Conference (YASC), coming up in Santa Barbara, Calif. from Oct. 17 to 19, is already sold out.

Nearly 1,000 Yardi users from around the nation will gather at Fess Parker’s Doubletree Resort on Santa Barbara’s beautiful waterfront to receive training and updates on the latest Yardi product releases, learn about new solutions for their real estate-based businesses, and network with fellow industry professionals. There will be 182 courses offered. Twelve years ago, the first-ever YASC featured 30 courses and 150 people attended. Since then, the event has grown rapidly and is considered one of the best ways to get hands-on training on Yardi software.

Those in attendance will not only interact closely with Yardi staff who can help address any technical challenges, but will also enjoy beautiful southern California fall weather and the gorgeous oceanfront views of the Doubletree Rotunda during outdoor lunches and evening mixers. If they have any free time, visitors might try some of Santa Barbara’s delightful local restaurants, outdoor activities and sightseeing.

Held biannually on the East and West Coasts, the Santa Barbara-based YASC will be held away from the Central Coast for the first time in 2013, when the West Coast event will be held in Anaheim, Calif. from Oct. 9-11. The trial location offers easy access to LA-area airports and nearby attractions like Disneyland, and allows for a larger number of conference attendees.

The East Coast event will continue to be based at the Washington Hilton from May 21-23, 2013.

If you missed out on getting registered in time to attend the Santa Barbara YASC, we’ll look forward to seeing you at one of the 2013 events. But you can also follow along with all the happenings at the conference right here on The Balance Sheet, where we will repeat and refine the start-to-finish coverage we gave the May Washington D.C. event. Check out the highlights right here, and look for advance coverage of YASC highlights in the weeks leading up to Oct. 17.
