As a property owner, I appreciate how transparent and proactive 1st Management Group is.

"Tara Showen, she's a step above the rest. You have questions, she gets answers ASAP. You have problems with the property, she resolves it quickly. Communication with Tara can be reached at any time I need help or assistance. She's always on top of it and gives me what I need, a quick turnaround.

You're looking for the best, look no further, Tara Showen with 1st Management Group. She's been with me 5 years now and I have nothing but exceptional performance with her personally and her company.

Would highly recommend them as an owner of multiple properties. If you're looking for the best, forget the rest."

"1st Management is responsive and fixes any property issues efficiently and keeps it affordable for me as an owner.  They often fix an issue before I even know, taking the stress out of being an owner"

- M.

Property Owner

"1st Management has been our property manager since our first apartments in 2012 and continues through our sixth apartment building.  They have always been responsive to questions or concerns.  Monthly reports/deposits are always timely and accurate.  They seamlessly take care of every sort of tenant/maintenance/vacancy issue.  I would recommend them for any new or experienced landlord and plan to use them to manage my next acquisition."

- Mark

Property Owner

"1st Management is a wonderful Property Management company. We have used them for 5+ years to manage a dozen of our rental properties.

We have been very pleased with their services, to include their applicant screening, tenant placement, how they handle deposits, inspections, renewals, repairs, monthly reports, and disbursements.
‍
They handle tenant evictions timely and they have a qualified list of vendors they use for maintenance, cleaners, tradespeople, etc. I cannot remember a time when I was unhappy with a vendor they used and the amount I had to pay for said services.
‍
1st Management Group’s customer service is professional and timely. I will keep using their services and I plan to allow them to manage additional properties I acquire in the future."

- Cleo

Property Owner

"Since 2018, 1st Management Group has managed our multifamily rental properties, consistently exceeding our expectations in every aspect of their service. Their team has been outstanding at seamlessly onboarding new buildings into their portfolio, maintaining clear communication with tenants, and efficiently handling all repairs and maintenance issues. Thanks to their professional and reliable approach, I have peace of mind knowing my properties are in excellent hands."

- Ben

"Real Property Solutions has been an incredible asset to have on multiple properties across WV and sets the standard for what I've come to expect from a property manager.  I especially appreciate the continuity and overall level of care that we've seen from their staff and would recommend them highly to other commercial building owners."
