Following four jam-packed days, attendees of the 2021 Rent Manger User Conference truly reached new heights in our expert-led sessions, formal and informal networking opportunities, and one-of-a-kind social experiences. To celebrate another incredible user conference, we’re highlighting our top ten favorite moments from this year’s RMUC below.
“This was a beautiful conference. The speakers were intelligent, concise, and clear. The venue was GORGEOUS. The courses offered were detailed and interesting, offering lots of time to learn a lot of different things. I felt the conference left me refreshed towards my job and with a new outlook on how I use the tools I have.”

2. The Keynote Address
LCS President and CEO, Dave Hegemann, explored the future of Rent Manager during the highly anticipated RMUC.21 Keynote Address. From highlighting new community administration features like polling, community calendars, and amenity management to demonstrations of Apply Now’s updated filters, the Keynote gave an overview of recent property management tech additions and exciting advancements coming soon to Rent Manager.
“The Keynote this year was exciting! I also enjoyed being together with my team. It had been a while since COVID, and it was really nice to gather again.”
3. “Come Fly with Me” Premier Social Event
Attendees who joined us for the Come Fly With Me social event partied like it was 1940 and enjoyed an evening of dining, drinks, and dancing at the incredible National Museum of World War II Aviation. Serenaded by the Beverly Belles—a swing-style girls’ group who channeled the charm and flair of The Andrews Sisters—guests hit the dance floor and boogie-woogied the night away.

7. Connecting With New and Old Friends
Our first in-person conference since 2019 offered not just a chance to learn about new trends in property management, but the experience also enabled our customers, sponsors, and Rent Manager employees to reconnect after a year apart.
“The Innovation Hall Power Hour was great for getting to know the vendors and support teams in-person. I was able to get to know new people and hear the experiences they’ve had within the industry/software and what other services can help you grow.”
8. Rent Manager Certified
Twenty-eight attendees conquered the Rent Manager Certification test during RMUC.21. These hands-on, activity-driven assessments grade participants on their ability to complete key software tasks within a sample Rent Manager environment. Congratulations to everyone who has achieved “Certified” status!

9. Mind-Bending Closing Ceremony
America’s Got Talent performer Robert Channing wrapped up an incredible week with a spellbinding performance at our Closing Ceremony.

10. Oh Deer, Unexpected Conference Participants
As soon as word got out about how much fun we were having at the RMUC, some unexpected guests tried to crash the conference! These friendly locals were everywhere at the resort, and our attendees snapped lots of photos of them throughout their time in Colorado Springs.
