About Leo Software

In 2002, Paul Muessig, a 30-year commercial real estate veteran with a maturing $70,000,000 real estate portfolio, decided to leverage technology to compete for third-party property management assignments. Finding no software to provide the edge he was seeking, Muessig determined to fill a gap in the software market based on his understanding of the commercial real estate industry. This insight led to the creation of Leo Software.

During the ensuing years Muessig and his team designed and built what is considered by many in the business as the best and easiest to use "front-end" business intelligence application available for commercial real estate management and leasing professionals.

As described by early adopter Dave Petersen, Principal and Director of Management Services, of the former Trammell Crow Company, Schaumburg, Ill.
"Leo's capabilities really dazzled us — it's a one-source solution for tracking, managing and sharing any information required for managing commercial property."

Leo's early market acceptance, coupled with its compatibility with other leading business applications, has fostered the creation of three important distribution alliances for Leo:

  • Sage/Timberline, a software giant whose 20,000 overall clients include more than 3,000 US property management firms
  • Lynx — Lynx Systems Inc. is the leading Canadian developer and integrator of information technology solutions for real estate companies.
  • Elyton Solutions — Elyton Solutions provides virtual back office CFO functions to strategic real estate investors who do not have the asset base to support a full time CFO and staff. Elyton uses Leo Software as part of its integrated approach to serving its clients.
