We are Associated Property Management, APM. Our company is a proudly organized business consisting of two main principals, Thomas S. Emele and Trent O'Brien. With over twenty years experience in the community management business, we feel we have the expertise, knowledge and common sense needed to run our property management company efficiently and professionally.
We both enjoy going out into the communities and talking with the homeowners, finding out how they feel about where they're living and what they feel is needed to make their community a better place in which to live. We know that a well managed complex returns more than reasonable profit in both livability and resale value. Associated Property Management is a professional management firm. We take responsibility for the needs of those complexes taking pride in their community.
Associated Property Management truly believes that a constant line of communication must be open to all homeowners. Everyone is welcome to stop by and see us, to talk to us regarding their concerns or to just have a cup of coffee in the morning.
As owners of Associated Property Management, we are looking forward to meeting with you and discussing the possibility of becoming your managing agents.
