He will work collaboratively with executive leadership and internal department heads, to provide innovative products and solutions that meet evolving needs of our clients, residents and team members, and enhance overall process effectiveness.
“Brett’s strategic leadership, financial acumen, and operational finesse make him a great addition to the leadership team,” says Andrew Wittgen, Executive Managing Director of Property Management for RangeWater. “His proficiency in overseeing portfolios, managing budgets, and cultivating efficient systems underscores his commitment to enhancing and centralizing our operations.”

Before joining RangeWater, he held director and managerial positions at leading property management and hospitality companies such as Progress Residential, Sequoia Equities, and Marriott International.
“I look forward to collaborating closely with our internal departments, executive leadership, and valued clients, to unify our service offerings and identify key areas for efficiency. This collaborative approach will empower us to prioritize initiatives and unlock the full potential for a more streamlined and optimized future,” said Boitano.

Boitano was also involved in the National Apartment Association Diversity & Inclusion Committee, Pretium Partners cross-company Pride Steering Committee, and as a founding member of Marriott International's LGBTQ Initiative, he continues to bring his commitment to inclusivity and community to the forefront. Outside of the property management realm, Boitano and his partner Ben appreciate globetrotting adventures, exploring new places in and around the Atlanta area, as well as enjoying a serene beach getaway.
With Boitano’s promotion, RangeWater continues to expand its experienced executive team and further its strategic growth focused on teamwork and collaboration to achieve greater outcomes in 2024.
