We’re humbled and honored by the recent recognition as Best Property Management Company from 425 Business. Sharing this recognition alongside fellow Eastside businesses Kemper Development as Developer of the Year and Wallace Properties’ Kevin Wallace as Leader of the Year is especially meaningful. For nearly 80 years, our firms have been engaged in our communities and the Greater Eastside in so many different forms.
As family-owned companies with deep roots in our region, we share a belief that building a strong community goes well beyond the properties we develop, own, and manage. We show up with our sleeves rolled up, ready to go to work and to give our time and energy.
Look around the Eastside, and you’ll see what generations of collaborative, engaged civic leadership, philanthropy, and collaboration can accomplish. Organizations like Overlake Medical Center, Acres of Diamonds, PorchLight (formerly Congregations for the Homeless), and KidVantage are vital threads in our community fabric. Each has benefited from businesses such as ours and individuals willing to invest their time, resources, and leadership in the well-being of others.
We’re proud to have played a part in that collective effort, alongside so many who care deeply about this place we call home. Frankly, we think this is what makes Washington such a great place to live, and you bet we show up and fight to keep it special. We hope you will too. Take the time to volunteer, help a neighbor out, pay it forward, make connections. It makes a difference.
Awards are a wonderful honor, but the greater reward is seeing our communities grow stronger, more connected, and more resilient.
Because at the end of the day, strong businesses help build strong communities. And together, we’re stronger.
Thank you, 425 Business, for recognizing local businesses and the communities that make our success possible.
