 Joya Pavesi, RKW’s longtime EVP of Marketing & Strategy, was promoted to the newly created role of President – Brand & Strategic Services.

Additionally, RKW welcomed tenured industry veteran Kevin Owens as President – Property Management. Kevin brings a wealth of experience across the Southeast U.S. and most recently was the Divisional President at RPM, where he oversaw the company’s growth from 18,000 to 60,000 units.

This innovative leadership structure enables RKW to deploy expertise with precision across all facets of the company. It underscores the creativity and forward-thinking approach that has propelled RKW to the NMHC Top 50 Managers list in just a decade.

“This is an exciting time for RKW, as Joya Pavesi and Kevin Owens are exceptional leaders who perfectly complement each other,” said Jess Beck, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of RKW owner Alfred.

“Joya and Kevin are uniquely suited to keep RKW at the forefront of operational excellence and innovation.”

Pavesi has been a cornerstone of RKW’s success since nearly its inception. Her customer experience excellence and strategic leadership have earned RKW many awards over the years, including the Multi-Housing News Marketing Executive of the Year and Best Marketing Campaign awards; Multifamily Executive’s Best Use of Proptech honor; and top 5 rankings in the J Turner Research Division I ORA® (Online Reputation Assessment) Power Ranking each of the last two years.

In her new role, Pavesi will expand her impact to oversee growth, revenue optimization and further bolster the firm’s service offerings. She will continue to lead brand and strategy, with a deeper focus on innovation and technology.

With more than two decades of experience, Owens is a respected property management executive who has successfully led operating teams in 36 U.S. states, with a particular focus on Class A and value-add communities.

At RPM, Owens was responsible for all of his division’s property management departments, including marketing, operations, business development, property transitions, facilities and construction management. He successfully oversaw the development and stabilization of more than 40 lease-up communities that outperformed initial occupancy and rental rate projections.

Marcie Williams, one of the founding leaders of RKW who helped the company become the industry powerhouse it is today, will transition from her CEO position to a strategic advisor role.

“We have endless gratitude for Marcie Williams’ contributions to RKW’s ascension into a premier national multifamily management firm and are thrilled to benefit from her wisdom and experience as a strategic advisor,” Beck said.

In 2022, RKW was acquired by Alfred, an award-winning technology firm based in New York. This strategic acquisition enabled RKW to deploy a best-in-class suite of technology and customer experience solutions to increase resident satisfaction and improve operational performance.
