Yardi has a documented history of processing millions of monthly financial transactions as well as creating cloud-based interfaces for end users and housing staff. I expect Rent Relief will leverage that experience for the benefit of our community and staff,\u201d said Stephen Pelz, executive director of the Kern County Housing Authority.<\/p>\n<p>Rent Relief powered by Yardi is a new solution that leverages decades of technology development and client support. Rent Relief offers portals for households to submit applications for assistance including easy upload of supporting documentation. Kern County housing staff will be able to log on to view and process applications, disburse funds to renters and landlords and easily produce the data for state and federal oversight offices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYardi is committed to help agencies keep renters housed as we endure the pandemic. We have nearly four decades of experience developing this type of full-service technology,\u201d said Chris Voss, vice president of affordable housing at Yardi.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more by visiting\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rentrelief.com\/\">RentRelief.com<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/yardi.zoom.us\/webinar\/register\/WN_M1DhxgSJTPSUgooPd7z4vw\">attend an upcoming webinar<\/a>.
