Our Story

We're Here To Bring Residents and Property Owners Together

At South Bend Management Co, we are dedicated to servicing two sets of clients: the residents of our homes and the owners of those properties. Together, this trio creates an excellent living experience for one, wealth creation and growth for the other, and prosperity for all involved. Both clients have their respective needs; owners have property they would like to cash flow and build equity in, without day-to-day management responsibilities and residents are looking for a new home with responsive and customer relationship-oriented managers and maintenance team members. Our team’s job is to meet both needs and exceed expectations.

Our founding partners realized early on that the symbiotic relationship between a resident, the owner of the property they occupy and the property manager truly is greater than the sum of the parts. Residents who feel their needs are met, their questions are answered and their living space is safe, clean and well maintained are much more likely to adhere to the leases they sign, and even resign leases where they otherwise might continue their search for adequate housing. Owners of properties who receive consistent cash flow and whose houses are well looked after are in turn much quicker to invest in maintaining their properties. The positive snowball effect of the above phenomena is easy to imagine. We at South Bend Management Co are here to facilitate this relationship and improve the lives and profits of both of our client bases.
