Where It All Started
Founded in 1994, a small team set out to revolutionize the University and College software landscape. With offices in Raleigh, NC and Newcastle, UK, Residential Management Systems (RMS) provides a industry-leading web-based housing and conference management software solution. In July 2022, StarRez, the global market leader in student housing software, announced the acquisition of Residential Management Systems, Inc. (RMS) developer of the Mercury Residential Housing Platform.
“Our goal is to be the global platform for residential communities to deliver the next level of resident experience, driving wellness, engagement, occupancy, automation, and insights. Welcoming the RMS team and community to the StarRez family is an exciting step forward to achieving it. Already one of the fastest growing providers in the space, StarRez’s reach now stands upwards of 3 million beds on the platform, bringing more value and access to our partnership ecosystem.” said Travis Knipe, CEO of StarRez.
“When I founded RMS in 1994, my aim was to revolutionize the university and college software landscape with the combination of power, flexibility, and ease of use. By combining forces with StarRez, I believe we are best positioned to deliver increasing value and outstanding customer experience to our higher education community for years to come” said Graham Banister, CEO of RMS.
