Commercial real estate firm anticipates increasing staff productivity and value-added client service by automating business-wide processing

SANTA BARBARA, CALIF., Dec. 12, 2012– Yardi announced today MB Real Estate Services LLC will use Yardi Voyager™ to bolster its strategy to increase electronic transactions, reduce paper and improve client services by automating property management and accounting processes.

MB Real Estate previously kept various elements of its accounting function in different systems. “We wanted leasing, commercial office management, budgets, cash flow and forecasting in one system,” said Maureen Grove, CPA, vice president of finance and accounting for MB Real Estate. “Automating our finance and accounting functions will free up our staff from more mundane tasks and allow them to focus on more complicated aspects of advising, consulting and managing commercial real estate. The Yardi dashboard features key performance indicators, allowing managers to perform more analytical services and focus on greater client-centric functions that add value.”

She added, “In evaluating our options, we were very impressed with Yardi’s customer service. The staff is exceptional, and that solidified our belief that we made the right choice.”

Another key factor in MB Real Estate’s selection of Yardi Voyager was the option to build additional operations into the system, including investment accounting, advanced budgeting and forecasting, and various mobile services for the leasing and property management teams, according to Grove.

“MB Real Estate is energized and excited about Voyager and what the future holds for us and our ability to serve our clients. Voyager isn’t just an accounting system, it’s a real estate management system,” Grove said.
