SUCCESS STORIES
R.E.M. Residential pioneered a unique management system that not only revitalizes the building but the surrounding neighborhood.
We took over a building in Inwood with over 600 violations and not only transformed the building, we transformed the entire block. The property is extremely financially successful today.
Think that is a one-off? We took on a row of brownstones in Gramercy park and increased the rent roll 6-fold and went from 0% free market to 80% free market. We took over buildings in Harlem in 200. We increased the rent roll by 60% and improved the living conditions in every way possible.

TESTIMONIALS
With our drive to outperform expectations and over-produce results, it is no surprise that we have a long list of happy clients and tenants. But don’t take it from us – read what they have to say!
R.E.M.’s management service has received our trust and faith, as that they have always held our best financial and ethical interests at heart. They have handled matters ranging from all various rent controls & New York City regulations and ensuring daily communications on all material business matters, to providing customizable management statements. Their careful keeping of property files and records has been useful for legal challenges and financial evaluation. I probably don’t say it enough but the employees R.E.M. has in the office have all been fantastic hires. Each of them has strengths for the operation and R.E.M. has given them authority and independence to perform at the highest level.

My company depends upon dealing with professionals and experts of the highest integrity. R.E.M. Residential understands this and has over the years been a source of information and expertise for our firm. Because of our longstanding relationship with R.E.M. Residential, they understood our investment objective and subsequently assisted us in purchasing and repositioning a portfolio of Manhattan apartment buildings.
Morris Moinian
I am delighted that R.E.M. has been able to grow, develop, enjoy success and be recognized for the unparalleled customer service you deliver. Your team at R.E.M. has shown me that loyalty and trust are deeply rooted in your character. Clearly, this is a strong and healthy partnership. Rick, you have so much to be proud of. The work ethic you have demonstrated from the beginning is remarkable and the reward of having happy, satisfied clients is just one proof point.
It’s a great feeling to be able to spend more time at our vacation home in Jackson Hole, to rest easy knowing that our buildings are in your capable hands!
Thank you for that.

Unlike the many managing companies that push for unnecessary so called “improvements” to boost their own bottom line, REM has never pushed. They make suggestions, educate the board, explain the pros and cons, detail the costs and benefits, and document the potential future savings. They also have worked with numerous different contractors but there is never any pressure to select one or the other or even to select any of his contacts. We just completed our local law commitment, chose the lowest bidder, the work was excellent, timely and the job came in on budget. So look around carefully but give REM serious consideration.
Joseph Jeff Loewi
It is a pleasure to having REM manage our multi-family properties. Their entire team is dedicated to providing professional management, and treats each property as if it is their own. We are a rather large company and have worked and continue to work with several management companies. None have been as responsive and hands on as the REM team. The future is bright for this growing company.

R.E.M. Residential has been managing our Manhattan mixed-use building for more than three years. During that time the team at R.E.M. has impressed us in all phases of the task.
We particularly appreciate their attention to detail, anticipating and handling potential tenant issues, knowledge of the considerable intricacies of owning and managing real estate in New York City, as well as meeting all projected financial targets while maintaining the property at the highest level.
Our relationship with R.E.M. has exceeded our expectations and I give them our highest recommendation.
DCCH Inc.
EAX Group wholeheartedly recommends R.E.M. Residential for its property management services. R.E.M. took over management of one of our properties a year ago, and the improvement in the building has been dramatic.
First, R.E.M. is extremely hands on in its management of the property, and quick to resolve any issues. This includes any violations with the city, or issues with common spaces. Second, we saw an extremely proactive approach towards managing tenants and understanding the needs of the building. Third, we appreciate the extensive monthly reporting as well as communication with the ownership group about issues facing the building. Finally, we also found R.E.M. was proactive in creating a strategy to improve the rent roll as well as quality of the tenants.

About 6 months ago my family changed management companies to Rick Elezi and R.E.M. Residential for our Manhattan building that has been in our family for over 90 years. We had been with our prior management company for over 45 years and I feared the switch would be awkward. Rick understood my concerns and the switch was efficient and without problems.
Since R.E.M. Residential has taken over as the management, Rick and his staff have acted proactively to address issues that were of concern. The building has already been improved, violations have been removed and tenant relations are better.
Ken Kahn
I am writing this letter to express how impressed our building partnership is with the wonderful service R.E.M. has provided us over the past year with regard to the day-to-day management duties of our rental property in New York City.
R.E.M. has managed several significant renovation projects on our behalf with an extremely high level of efficiency and professionalism. The office staff is pleasant to speak with, our calls are typically returned promptly and we are always kept informed with regard to matters such as lease renewals and market conditions in relation to rental rate increases.
I would recommend R.E.M. to any property owner that wishes to retain the services of a top-notch, professional property management firm that truly follows through on everything that it is supposed to.
