Property management for Michigan apartment owners
Managed like we own it.
Beck Property Management Group manages apartment and mixed-use buildings of 10 or more units across Central and Southeast Michigan. We own and operate our own multifamily, so we run yours with the same discipline: statements on time, calls returned the same day, no markup on repairs.

Who we work with
Owners of 10+ unit buildings who want one accountable manager.
Whether it's a 60-unit garden community or a downtown storefront with apartments above, the job is the same: document everything, report to the owner, and treat every dollar as if it were our own.
Apartment communities
Garden-style and mid-rise buildings. Leasing, resident relations, turns, and on-site staff recruited and supervised for larger communities.
Commercial and mixed-use
Retail, office, and buildings with residential above. Tenant coordination, common-area maintenance, and lease administration.
Multi-building portfolios
Several buildings, one manager, one statement, and one point of contact across your holdings.
Not a fit: single-family homes, 1–4 unit buildings, HOAs, or placement-only service. Short-term rentals are handled by Beck Vacation Rentals.

Beck Vacation Rentals
Own a lake home, cabin, or condo you rent by the night? Our short-term rental service lists it, prices it, hosts the guests, and pays you from a broker trust account, under the same license and the same standards.
Why Beck PMG
We're owners too. Hold us to it.
We own and operate our own Michigan multifamily, so we've felt every pain point an owner feels. Beck PMG runs as a service business for two customers, owners and residents, because satisfied residents renew, and renewals protect your income.

Managed like it's our own
No surprise invoices. Vendor bills and parts pass through at cost with no markup, our own maintenance techs bill a flat hourly rate set in your agreement, anything over your approval limit waits for your sign-off, and the agreement is month-to-month with 30 days' notice.
-
Service is the product
Residents get fast, respectful, predictable service. Turnover is the most expensive line on your P&L that never shows up as a line, so we run the building so people want to stay.
-
Accountability you can measure
We publish our standards as numbers and report against them every month. Your owner statement includes a scorecard: response times, renewal rate, and resident satisfaction.

Your monthly report
Do you know what's happening at your property?
Most owners find out about a problem when the statement looks wrong or a resident calls them directly. Every Beck PMG statement comes with a one-page scorecard: occupancy, collections, renewals, every work order, every inspection, and how we did against each standard we promised you. Misses are listed too, with what we changed.
- Our standards, and how we did. Each commitment above, with the month's actual numbers next to it.
- Every work order, open and closed. Plus vacancies, applications, delinquencies, and why residents moved out.
- Misses, and what we fixed. If we fell short, you read it from us first, with the correction.
Statement and scorecard by the 10th. Every month. No asking.

Residents
Residents are customers. Renewals prove it.
We put the most attention on the two moments that decide a renewal: move-in and the first maintenance request. The rest of the lease is run so that staying is the easy choice.
What you see every month: resident satisfaction score, renewal rate, and top move-out reasons.
01Move-in
A clean, checked unit, a photo inspection, and a welcome packet covering who to call, the portal, trash and parking, and local spots.
02First 30 days
A check-in call or text asking "anything not working?" so issues get fixed before they turn into frustration.
03Every work order
Status updates until it's closed, plus a one-question satisfaction survey when it closes.
04Through the year
Proactive notices for planned work, seasonal reminders, and an annual resident survey.
05Renewal
An offer 90 days before lease end and a personal follow-up at 60. Rent increases come with a reason, and anyone on the fence is asked what would make them stay.
06Move-out
An exit survey asking why. Every answer is logged, and the reasons roll into your owner report.
Current residents
Pay rent, submit a maintenance request, and message our team through the resident portal, any time of day.

FAQ
Questions owners ask us first
Do you mark up repairs or vendor invoices?
No. Vendor invoices and parts pass through at cost with no markup and no "coordination" line. Where our own maintenance technicians do the work, labor is billed at a flat hourly rate written into your agreement. Anything over your approval limit waits for your sign-off, and major repairs are competitively bid.
What does management cost?
Pricing is quoted in writing after we review your property. There are no setup, onboarding, renewal, or early-termination charges, and no markup on vendor repairs or parts.
How long is the agreement?
Month-to-month. Either party can end it with 30 days' written notice, and files, keys, ledgers, and deposit records are handed back organized.
Who handles evictions and legal notices?
We serve demand notices on schedule, prepare the file, and coordinate with your attorney, who files and handles court. Attorney fees and court costs are paid from the property account, and payment plans only happen with your sign-off.
What buildings and areas do you manage?
Apartment and mixed-use buildings of 10 or more units across Central and Southeast Michigan, from the Great Lakes Bay Region to Metro Detroit. For larger communities we recruit and supervise on-site staff, billed through to you at cost.
