MultiGreen Uses RF’ Expertise to Support Development
RF Helps Design Comprehensive Operating Model and Technology Roadmap
October 2020 | Dallas, TX – PRNewswire RealFoundations, the world’s foremost provider of management consulting solutions and managed services for the real estate industry, today announced the completion of a four-month project enabling MultiGreen Properties to efficiently develop and operate 40,000 sustainable apartments by 2030. RealFoundations’ work also positions the young company to become a leader in ESG reporting, performance and transparency.
Founded in the summer of 2019, MultiGreen publicly launched with an announcement from Davos, Switzerland, on January 20, 2020, at the 50th Annual World Economic Forum. MultiGreen is exclusively focused on ground-up construction and operations of entry-level, sustainable and high-tech multifamily housing. By contrast, other companies in this market segment have mixed property portfolios and have yet to comprehensively structure their businesses around sustainability principles. MultiGreen aims to differentiate itself in the capital markets as the leading development and investment firm for ESG standards.
MultiGreen engaged RealFoundations to help the organization establish a scalable operating model and robust technology platform to support its aggressive business goals and anticipated rapid growth. RealFoundations utilized its proprietary Design, Build, Deploy methodology to help define:
- What work MultiGreen must accomplish to achieve its objectives;
- Who does the work, including whether it’s done in-house or sourced to third parties;
- What information, data and technology are needed to complete the work;
- Key initiatives required to strategically guide and grow the company; and
- A roadmap for implementation of that technology.
Yardi Voyager, a preeminent cloud-based accounting and property management platform for the real estate industry, was selected as one of MultiGreen’s primary technology solutions. With extensive expertise in Yardi, RealFoundations helmed the implementation, delivering a leading practices-based system with defined processes that support MultiGreen’s new operating model. MultiGreen can continue leveraging the Voyager platform, adding features and functionality as developed properties move into operations, or when the company offers different or more complicated investment products to the marketplace.
Additionally, RealFoundations provides ongoing managed accounting services for MultiGreen, allowing the firm to concentrate on its core business and easily scale up accounting operations as the portfolio grows.
“We retained RealFoundations because of its track record in accelerating the growth of real estate companies of all sizes and maturities. Now, with a solid operating model and technology platform in place, we’re well positioned to fulfill our vision of bringing sustainable living to tens of thousands of families and creating institutional-grade ESG opportunities for investors.”
— Randy Norton, Founder and Chairman of the Board, MultiGreen
The collaboration with MultiGreen is a unique opportunity for RealFoundations.
“We’re thrilled to help MultiGreen get set up to succeed in making sustainable multifamily housing attainable to so many more people while offering new, socially significant opportunities for investors. This is truly a chance to positively impact the delivery of attainable housing, through our work, which is very rewarding.”
— David Stanford, Enterprise Managing Consultant and Co-Founder, RealFoundations
