PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

We began as a property management company over 40 years ago, and while our resources have expanded significantly, property management remains our passion and largest division, with more than 40,000 units under management.

Whether senior housing in New York City, commercial space in Pennsylvania, garden apartments in Florida, or low-income housing tax credit properties in Tennessee, our guiding principles remain the same: Nurture Relationships, Deliver Results. We believe in collaborating and communicating with our clients to forge long-standing, successful partnerships. We approach each new and existing relationship with the attention of the boutique firm we once were and the breadth of resources we leverage today. We take time to learn and understand every aspect of our clients’ investments and goals, and we craft clear and feasible plans to deliver measurable results.

  • Clear and accurate financial reporting
  • Executive summaries of all property activities
  • Systematic and consistent collections
  • Lender, investor and regulatory agency reporting
  • Cash flow management
  • Annual audit coordination and support
  • Precise operating and capital budgets
  • Timely and accurate monthly financial statements
Asset-Management

ASSET MANAGEMENT

We offer expertise in development, capitalization, construction, management and brokerage of multifamily properties. Our team will identify both challenges and opportunities in a portfolio and offer proactive recommendations to enhance investment yield. Together with our clients, we set appropriate goals for performance, considering the lifecycle requirements of the assets within the portfolio. We then closely monitor operations with a creative, disciplined and pragmatic approach. Many buildings in our portfolio are aging or distressed assets that we have converted to financially solvent properties providing quality housing for residents.

Leveraging our decades of experience and depth of knowledge, we add value at each stage of a property’s life cycle while maintaining a commitment to core values and a superior level of personal service.
