Peter Lohmann's Mailing List - Issue #76

The 20 Largest PM Companies

This is a list of the twenty largest residential property management companies (only counting 3rd party doors). It excludes large apartment buildings because I’m focused on “scattered-site” units (SF and small MF).

Obviously this list is incomplete, but we have to start somewhere! Our industry has operated in the dark for far too long.

Is your company missing from the list? Add it here. I will be finalizing this list over the next few weeks and publishing it on my website, with links to each company (great for your SEO).

My plan is to update (and share) this list at least annually!

Crane Applications Closing Shortly

If you own a PM company with at least 100 doors under management, I made something for you.

It’s a private community with:

• One part mastermind

• One part access to exclusive content

• One part live events & meetups

If that sounds even mildly interesting, you can learn more here.

Here’s a little peak inside:

We only open up applications a coupe times a year, and they close again in a few days so we can stay focused on providing value to the community.

Members are carefully screened to ensure a focus on quality over quantity. This isn’t a free-for-all Facebook group.

By the way, Crane members can look forward to a complimentary dinner cruise around the island at the upcoming NARPM broker/owner conference in Amelia Island, FL!

See you there?

I got the chance to sit down with Cat for over an hour, and have a wide-ranging discussion about the future of AI in property management (plus many other topics).

This was one of the most popular episodes of my podcast last year, and I’m publishing the video recording here for the first time. Check it out:
