AUGUST 10, 2022, TAMPA, FL — Funnel Leasing, the only Renter Management Software platform, today announced the addition of UIP Property Management, Inc. (a subsidiary of UIP Companies, Inc.), a real estate investment firm specializing in multifamily and mixed-use residential properties, primarily in the Washington, DC MSA, to their growing client base. UIP provides a differentiated rental product by preserving historic, architecturally-significant properties and meaningfully renovating and restoring these spaces, as well as new construction, and adaptive reuse hotel, dorm, and office building conversions to multifamily. Their highly-targeted approach, adoption of new technology solutions like Funnel to create efficiencies at scale, and deep knowledge of the Washington, DC metropolitan area fuel their high-performing portfolio. 

“UIP’s thoughtful approach to restoring historic properties in addition to their commitment to managing excellent apartment communities of all asset classes aligns with Funnel’s own journey to completely disrupt antiquated processes and bring them into the modern experience,” said Tyler Christiansen, CEO of Funnel. “They too want to make renting an apartment not only smooth by using the best tech, but equitable for all via their portfolio, and to leave the current multifamily landscape better than they found it. I’m proud that UIP is on the Funnel platform.”

About Funnel Leasing

Funnel exists so multifamily operators don’t have to pick between antiquated monopolies or single solution challengers. After decades of the status quo, operators are no more efficient, and renters still dread the process of leasing an apartment. We fixed that with a platform that turns the entire business model on its head. Renter Management Software is a new category of connected tools built around the renter. The software delivers a consistent, connected experience from first inquiry through years of renewals. All this while simultaneously saving operators quantifiable money through the smaller, and happier teams that only a renter-centric platform can enable.
