University Buyers Club adds Executive Vice President to expanding online student based business

  

 Charlotte, NC – June 21, 2011 - Jamie Swick has joined UClub as Executive Vice President. 

UClub is an innovative online based opportunity that allows owners and operators of Student Housing properties to directly leverage their student tenant base.  UClub increases properties NOI with minimal effort in a one-time push from onsite staff during lease-up. 

 Swick brings expertise in student housing from over ten years of participation in the industry. Five years of onsite management experience was spent initially as a leasing agent while working on her BA in Advertising from the University of Florida in Gainesville.

 Later Swick was promoted to Vice President of Acquisitions within The Collier Companies of Gainesville where she closed over $500 million in disposition, acquisitions and refinances as well as participated in the asset management of several properties.

 Following the freeze of the financial markets, she accepted the position of National Director of Sales for Blue Furniture Solutions, LLC, a furniture provider specializing in student housing.

 In less than 18 months the furniture industry was transformed.  Swick brought a fanatic approach to customer service and revolutionized the niche by forming partnerships and working with customers to structure financial models that helped increase operators’ ROI.  

UClub offers Swick the opportunity to continue creatively servicing the student housing industry in ways that dramatically benefit the bottom line of owners and operators.
