Sharper Management Expands into Rochester with Opening of New Offices
Rochester, MN, (June 6, 2014) – Well-recognized Twin Cities property management firm, Sharper Management, LLC, announced today the official opening of its new Rochester office. This new expansion broadens Sharper’s unique collaborative property management approach to Minnesota’s third largest city and surrounding areas. “I’ve called Rochester home since 1991 and I’m excited for the opportunity to bring the Sharper Management philosophy to my neighbors,” says Joel Starks, Owner and Head of Business Development. “The dramatic changes we’re seeing with the city’s growth and the upcoming Destination Medical Center present some unique property management challenges. Sharper is well-experienced in handling these situations. We feel our expansion into Rochester not only offers a better alternative but gives property owners a trusted partner so they can grow with this quickly evolving market.” To celebrate this new office, Sharper Management will be hosting an Open House on Thursday, June 19, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in their offices at 2222 Hwy 52 North – Suite 200. Visitors to the open house will have the opportunity to enter their special Open House giveaways. For rental property owners, they’ll be giving away two separate prize packages, each for 12 months of rental management, valued at $2,000 each – winners will be drawn from entries received at the open house. They’ll also be offering a special Homeowner’s Association promotion which includes a waiver of set-up fees and two months of free management services. This offer is available to all who sign up for a presentation at the open house. Additionally, the full Sharper Management staff, including Mr. Starks and their newest Business Development Managers, Tim Fisk and Mitch Augeson, will be on hand to answer questions. These locally-based staffers provide a full range of services including administrative, financial, and maintenance and will partner with each client to develop a property management plan. “We approach property management differently than most of our competitors,” says Mr. Starks. “We strive to provide the best resources and environment to both our clients and our employees. This collaborative approach has been very successful in the Twin Cities and our staff is excited to bring this Sharper advantage to the Rochester area. Even though we’re just now officially opening, we’re already working with nearly 50 Rochester properties including HOAs and rental properties! That’s exciting for all of us because it shows that property owners were looking for an alternative.” For more information on this new office opening and the upcoming Open House, call Joel Starks at 507-424-1660 or visit their website at www.sharpermanagement.com.
