Property management

Crown Realty & Management has helped us with our property leasing needs for over two years. Your company has good property management professionals who have rendered excellent services marketing our property, working with prospects and following through until the tenants move in. You have a well established process of getting the paper work completed both from the land lord and the tenant. I am happy with the quality of tenants Crown has found for us and will continue to use your services. I will recommend Crown Realty & Management to anyone who would need similar services.

-- Lakshmi Ramesh, property owner, Alpharetta Georgia


Crown Realty was instrumental in getting our property rented in less than 10 days. Scott Jacques and Dawn Lione are very knowledgeable about the market conditions in the Atlanta area and provided valuable guidance throughout the rental process. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a tenant placement or property management company.

-- Jayanti Saha, property owner, Roswell, Georgia

“Crown Management has remained tenacious on the task of tracking down tenants that skipped on us. Two years after the fact, and after I had forgotten about it, they were still on the case and called me to come pick up a check that they finally received through a garnishment. It’s inevitable as an investor that we will meet up with tenants who don’t pay. My choice for helping in that situation is Crown Management.”
