Commercial & Investment Property Management

Compass managers and support staff keep your property operating 24/7. Whether you have income property or a corporate facility or are planning either, we will develop and execute a program that keeps all tasks on schedule and income coming in.  

Compass promotes a positive environment around all of its income and commercial property. When issues arise, we keep them under control by immediately putting responsibility where it belongs. We understand that a facility or income property’s biggest headache is occupants and patrons that don’t get the response they want fast enough. The secret to our success is no secret at all; We simply seek out the next problem before it happens which leaves us with far less surprises. We currently manage operations of commercial and residential buildings, shopping centers,  and single family/condo rental properties.  

Since we mingle with the local real estate offices on a regular basis, Compass ensures that its clients properties are being proposed often when a vacancy is coming up. By managing property hands on, and specifically NOT performing the functions of a rental agency, we can focus on your operations with no other tasks to stray our focus.

We are often approached by condo association trustees for management services. The condo concept is inherently logistically challenged and our geographic area hosts many condo projects that were converted before codes, effective condo design, and condo legislature were in effect. We provide condo association management and consultation to those that understand these challenges and seek a manager that recognizes that an in-depth evaluation and a healthy budget and reserve are required before an effective management program can exist. Please call for a consultation so that we can see if we are a good fit for your association. For self managed associations, take advantage of our "admin only" plans and automate your bills, dues, and budgets in an easy to use online and mobile platform.
