Introduction
Cervelli Management Corporation is a team-based operation with staff backgrounds ranging in management, construction, and accounting. With over 80 years of combined experience, we are capable of handling any problem. Our management portfolio consisting of large scale apartment complexes, condominiums, office buildings, and retail and industrial locations has proven our ability to turn distressed properties into fruitful investments. In many cases we have worked with local authorities to reform and remediate issues for buildings once considered dangerous. We also work with condominium boards to create a better living environment for owners and tenants.
With a strong emphasis on customer satisfaction, Michael Cervelli Real Estate and Cervelli Management Corporation have been at the forefront of the industry. We have been able to weather many cyclical turns in the U.S. economy going beyond the franchise stage in late 1980's to make way for a better business plan, while watching competitors fall by the wayside. We wanted to serve our customers in a different manner than the large franchises, by providing a tailored experience, and it has proved to be a successful formula. By having specialized agents in specific market segments our team members have the advantage of being experts in the field. This is beneficial to both buyers and sellers. Our property managers are trained to recognize a problem before it happens. This saves money and time for all parties involved.
