 Orlando, FL (Feb. 1, 2019) — RKW RESIDENTIAL, a leading multifamily property management company, has opened an office in Orlando to support expected portfolio growth there and in the Tampa area.

 Experienced multifamily industry professional Lizzette Herron has joined RKW as Senior Regional Manager to oversee operations in Orlando and surrounding markets.

Herron works closely with Orlando-based Senior Vice President of Client Services Stephanie Brown in these markets. Both are based in the new Downtown Orlando office

“We are thrilled to have Lizzette on board to bolster our efforts in and around Orlando,” said Brown. “It’s no secret that the Orlando area is experiencing a boom in real estate development and corporate expansions and relocations. The demand for our services is growing in lockstep with the population growth.”

More than $10 billion in infrastructure projects are in the pipeline in Orlando, including the I-4 Ultimate highway improvements and expansion of Orlando International Airport.

 Orlando is also among the fastest-growing multifamily markets in the nation, with 4.4 percent year-over-year rent growth across all asset classes in 2018, according to Yardi Matrix. That ranked sixth out of 127 nationwide markets tracked by the company.

With over 20 years of multifamily experience, Herron started her career with Summit Properties before the company merged with Camden Property Trust in 2005. Most recently, she served as Camden’s District Manager, overseeing repositions, stabilized and lease-up communities in the Orlando and Tampa markets.

RKW’s growth has spread beyond South Florida into Orlando and Jacksonville starting with over 500 units under management.

“With Stephanie and Lizzette at the helm, our Orlando and Tampa operations are in capable hands,” said Johnny De La Espriella, the Regional Vice President managing Florida operations for RKW. “We look forward to building on what was a banner year for the company in the year ahead.”

In 2018, RKW’s overall portfolio grew by more than 7,000 units. The company’s footprint expanded from three to seven states during that span.
