In this customer story The challenge: 41 apartments and many competitors
AR Forte Apartments (Central Capital Apartments) operates 41 apartments in central Budapest, in and around Gozsdu Courtyard. In 2024, Operations Manager Ádám Kozsuch explained why the team adopted dynamic pricing, how they introduced RoomRaiser and what they measured during the first months. This story now has its own case study alongside the overview of both customers.
The challenge: 41 apartments and many competitors
Demand and competitor rates change quickly in this popular downtown location. With many different apartments and competitors, manually checking and calculating rates took substantial time. According to the customer, lower occupancy and demand noticed too late left revenue opportunities unrealised.
“Competition is fierce in the area, and dynamic pricing is essential today. But with our varied apartments and so many competitors, doing it well manually is impossible and takes a great deal of time.”
Why the team chose RoomRaiser
AR Forte used Previo PMS, whose team recommended RoomRaiser. The possibility of continuous rate optimisation and less manual work persuaded the team to try the system. The trial described in the interview refers to the 2023 onboarding; current commercial terms may differ.
Setup and daily workflow
According to the customer, connecting Previo and RoomRaiser took a few days. The team also received a competitor-analysis consultation; pricing was fine-tuned over the following one to two weeks. From then on, much of the recurring competitor monitoring and manual rate calculation no longer had to be done by hand.
“Since then, the system has been easy to use, and the work of constantly checking competitors’ prices and calculating our own rates has essentially disappeared.”
The reported results
Between early November 2023 and the end of February 2024, AR Forte reported that portfolio occupancy increased by 25% and revenue by 19% compared with the same period a year earlier. The Operations Manager also described a less measurable benefit: greater peace of mind that the pricing process was under control.
The practical takeaway
AR Forte’s experience shows the value of consistent pricing logic and ongoing competitor monitoring for a portfolio of dozens of apartments. The team spent less time calculating rates manually while retaining oversight of pricing decisions.
