I am very surprised that Preferred Management has bad reviews and I am 200% sure that Preferred…read moreManagement company deserves much better stars. I am giving 5 stars to Preferred Management and I claim myself as a reasonable and fair person. It became our management company about 15 years ago when we were almost on the way to bankruptcy. Since then, it has not only helped us to survive but also improved our property value significantly. Whenever I talk with my friends about management companies, they are always envious of me because the preferred management always takes care of the issues much better and faster than their management companies do. What else can I expect our management company to do?

It's impossible to describe how awful this business really is. In 5 years they, Preferred…read moreManagement and Kimberly in particular, have run our association's finances into near bankruptcy. A huge capital reserve fund has disappeared without any viable improvements whatsoever. During their employment HOA dues have increased by 90%, and a special assessment of over $400,000.00 was issued to deal with long time issues, actively ignored by the management company. It turned out it wasn't necessary. Preferential treatment has been given to former Board Members regarding repairs, landscaping, maintenance, pretty much everything. Kimberly Smith is constantly argumentative, obstructive, uncooperative, and combative. She has threatened other residents in other associations with filing criminal charges against them for their criticism of her company. Of course, she is once again incorrect in that only civil actions in tort are allowed if libel or slander is committed. The absolute defense against slander and tort is the truth. One cannot be threatened with or sentenced to jail over a civil matter. Kimberly is a nasty, nasty blowhard. Most of the Yelp reviews about Preferred Management are extremely negative. The only good one was posted by their long time business partner to whom they refer a lot of business and that business isn't good either Avoid this company and this person if you want to protect the value of your property. This company is no longer managing the HOA, and it's a very good change.

He is, without a doubt, the most patient, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented realtor I've ever worked with (and just a lovely person to boot). Roman took the time to truly understand what we were looking for and worked tirelessly to ensure that every option aligned with our needs. He made us feel comfortable and confident at every step - always listening, answering questions with care, and offering practical advice when viewing apartments. When we finally found *our* apartment, he was with us every step of the way, helping us assemble an outstanding team of professionals who made the process seamless. He expertly managed the complex coop application, ensuring that we felt completely organized and prepared at each stage. Having him in our corner when we encountered roadblocks or issues, made the overwhelming moments feel far more manageable. We are incredibly grateful for his guidance in helping us find our forever home and for the team he built around us. I wholeheartedly recommend Roman to anyone searching for an apartment or home (and have already done so multiple times). Do yourself a favor--work with Roman!
