ResidentIQ Donates Advanced PropTech to Streamline Entryway's
Training, Employment, and Housing Initiatives
KNOXVILLE, Tenn., June 18,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ResidentIQ®, an industry
leader providing comprehensive software solutions that integrate
seamlessly with property management systems for residential
property managers, today announced its partnership with
Entryway, a national nonprofit organization that helps
individuals and families transition from homelessness to economic
self-sufficiency through career training, employment, and housing
opportunities in partnership with property management companies in
the multifamily real estate industry.
ResidentIQ is providing substantial in-kind donations of
PropTech software, package discounts, and consulting services
to enhance Entryway's daily operating functions and further advance
its mission to facilitate training, employment, and housing through
multifamily partners for program participants. This partnership
aims to benefit homeless and near-homeless individuals and
families—almost half of participants have families—as well as ease
the increasing demand for entry-level workers in property
management companies, aligning with ResidentIQ's commitment to
community support.
"We are thrilled for the opportunity to leverage ResidentIQ's
technology and expertise in the multifamily industry to provide an
even better experience for our participants and our hiring
partners," said David Williams,
President & CEO of Entryway. "ResidentIQ has a company culture
and mindset that aligns with our work, opening doors for
individuals and families who need a second chance and the right
opportunity to get back on their feet. We look forward to a long
and impactful partnership."
Technological Synergy
With a comprehensive software suite available through its
business units, ResidentIQ is delivering the following PropTech
solutions and consulting services:
- ScreeningOne: Employment screening software with 100%
compliant background checks
- Consulting Services: A deep understanding of the
multifamily property management industry plus strong regulatory
compliance knowledge and a shared network of partners and
customers
Impact on Homelessness
ResidentIQ's contributions come at a crucial time, as over
653,100 people in the United
States experience homelessness on any given night, and 76%
of these are situationally homeless (The 2023 Annual Homelessness
Assessment Report to Congress, HUD). By supporting Entryway,
ResidentIQ aims to address these staggering statistics by providing
tools that will help facilitate career training, job stability, and
housing for Entryway program participants. In 2023, hired Entryway
participants reported an average pre-program hourly wage of
$7.65 but were hired at an average of
$19.06 – a 145% increase in income.
Additionally, 73% of hired participants in 2023 are still with
their original multifamily property management employer.
"At ResidentIQ we are about more than just offering amazing
software solutions for our customers. We are 100% committed to the
communities and industry we work with by helping PMCs and
situationally homeless people and families alike benefit from
Entryway and their incredible programs," said Gustavo Sapiurka, EVP and Managing Director of
ResidentIQ. "Together through this partnership, we hope to broaden
the path to long-term, sustained housing and employment for members
of our community."
