In her nearly 14 years with BRE Properties, Courtney Trindell-Reyes has worked in many aspects of property management, from her start as a leasing agent to her role today as a Senior Business Systems Analyst.<\/p>\nIn her nearly 14 years with BRE Properties, Courtney Trindell-Reyes has worked in many aspects of property management, from her start as a leasing agent to her role today as a Senior Business Systems Analyst.<\/p>\n
Her career path has given her unique perspective on the changing face of residential property management and she feels lucky to have achieved a particularly good work-life balance while enjoying professional success.<\/p>\n
Courtney and her husband, Benjamin Reyes (a facilities engineer for BRE), have three sons, ages 3, 9, and 17, and the family is especially close. You can find them enjoying time together at the skate park in Riverside or traveling to the beach in their fifth wheel RV during school vacations.<\/p>\n
Of paramount importance to Courtney is that her family gets her full attention while she\u2019s at home, and her company receives equal treatment at work.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis balance is really important for my family,\u201d she said. \u201cBRE has been just gracious and amazing to ensure that I have good balance. They\u2019ve made sure that I\u2019ve had it. I don\u2019t know that I would have been able to achieve that on my own.\u201d<\/p>\n
Her worlds collide when she uses her son\u2019s ages to recall when certain tech transition moments took place at the office. One was especially memorable \u2013 at the end of a long SQL training session with Yardi\u2019s Tamara Berndt, Courtney had to tell everyone she\u2019d be unable to continue the call \u2013 her water had broken while on the phone.<\/p>\n
\u201cTamara and I joke that that awful SQL scripting class put me into labor,\u201d she recalled.<\/p>\n
While her schedule doesn\u2019t allow time for many activities that aren\u2019t work or family related, Courtney\u2019s an extreme couponer who managed to cut her family\u2019s $1500 monthly grocery bill in half by careful shopping. She also spends any free time making scrapbooks for her sons so they\u2019ll be able to look back on their childhoods.<\/p>\n At work, she\u2019s also a master of a balancing act. While working on multiple projects in different areas of the company simultaneously, Courtney says she enjoys handling everything from minute detail questions about technical problems for BRE staff to overseeing major upgrade projects. She uses all the information she\u2019s collected throughout her career to contribute strong insight that benefits BRE.<\/p>\n \u201cI love that I can do a little bit of everything in my job every day. I don\u2019t think I could do the same thing every day all day long. I love that I can do everything from high level support to helping somebody log in to Yardi, very basic work to a very high level work, and touch so many departments,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n She is fascinated by the industry\u2019s transition to a paperless transaction system and has been a technical adviser on BRE\u2019s implementation of automated rent collection. The company holds a portfolio of 88 multi-family communities with 25,192 units in California, Arizona, Washington and Colorado.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n * \u00a0 \u00a0* \u00a0 \u00a0* \u00a0 \u00a0*<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0Learn more about Courtney<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n What is your favorite type of music?<\/strong><\/p>\n People would be surprised to hear that I love gangster rap.
