RealPage
American property software corporation
RealPage, Inc. is an American company that produces property management software for algorithmic rent setting. It is headquartered in Texas and owned by the private equity firm Thoma Bravo. Its services are used to inflate pricing on more than 24 million housing units worldwide in multifamily, commercial, single-family, and vacation rentals.
In 2024, the United States Department of Justice sued RealPage, alleging that its software represented a price fixing scheme to raise rents. San Francisco banned algorithmic rent pricing in August 2024. Since 2025, Dirk Wakeham has been the president and chief executive officer.
History
RealPage was founded in 1998 with the acquisition of Rent Roll, Inc., a provider of on-premises property management systems for the conventional and affordable multifamily rental housing markets. RealPage moved its corporate headquarters to Richardson, Texas in 2016, and in 2017 acquired four companies: apartment market data provider Axiometrics; utility and energy management company American Utility Management; revenue management and pricing provider Lease Rent Options; and On-Site, a leasing and marketing platform company.
In 2018, RealPage announced an agreement to purchase electronic payment platform company ClickPay, located in Hackensack, New Jersey.

Why this record matters
The phrase “american property software corporation” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Stable identifiers, scientific names and standards terminology offer the best bridge between this overview and specialist evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 11, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q23134166. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2024, 2025, 1998 and 2016.
Current terminology should not be projected backward without checking the classification used when the underlying evidence was created. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
