Intuit Real Estate Solutions, Chatham Financial Form Alliance to Offer Debt Management Solution

CLEVELAND — September 21, 2009 — Real estate companies will be better able to manage their portfolio debt and evaluate risks and opportunities in fast-changing markets as the result of a strategic alliance relationship between Intuit Real Estate Solutions and Chatham Financial.

IRES, a division of Intuit Inc., (Nasdaq: INTU) provides real estate and portfolio management and accounting software solutions to the global real estate industry. Chatham Financial is a global risk management advisory firm and a leading provider of debt management software and services for the real estate industry.

The alliance enables IRES to connect its IMPACT offering with Chatham’s FMS debt management system to create a complete view of asset and debt details that will allow users to analyze risks and opportunities across their portfolio.

IMPACT is a stand-alone application that lets clients create and share investment models and scenarios, execute buy, hold and sell decisions, automate waterfall modeling and investor returns, and deliver portfolio-wide performance reporting. Connecting it with the FMS system gives IMPACT clients a robust debt management solution, allowing them to analyze their debt without needing to use complex, error-prone spreadsheets.

“Understanding the impact of debt in the current and future valuation of assets and portfolios is key in today’s market environment, and having an integrated debt management solution is critical for our client’s success,” said Jeff Thompson, division president of IRES. “The combination of IMPACT and Chatham’s FMS debt management system will provide an unmatched solution for our joint clients.”

Mike Bontrager, founder and CEO of Chatham Financial, said connecting the two applications gives clients a faster, better way to analyze information and make decisions.

“Real estate companies can combine all of their debt information stored in the FMS debt management system with asset information stored and tracked in other IRES system solutions,” Bontrager said. “The result will be a powerful tool to analyze detailed debt and asset information, side-by-side, in one application.”
