About Powell Property Management

Powell Property Management is a division of Powell Homes, Inc., the oldest home builder in Seattle. While we have built entire communities of single-family homes, we have also created, owned, and managed leading retirement home properties and their campuses for several decades in the Puget Sound area. It was a natural extension of our capabilities, resources, and experience to establish Powell Property Management, a full-service management company managing multifamily units, apartment communities, and single family homes in the South Sound region.

 

 

Management Philosophy

Our management philosophy has been shaped by our experience of managing our own properties. Our guiding principle is based on the Golden Rule, which emphasizes treating others the way we would like to be treated. As property owners, we gained firsthand knowledge of the needs, desires, and demands of owners, tenants, and residents. As builders, we had access to exceptional resources that enabled us to provide consistent and thorough professional services. We place a high value on responsiveness and preventative maintenance.

As professional managers, we prioritize financial strength, integrity, and stability not only for ourselves but also for our clients. We understand that these qualities provide added value to our clients. We are serious about the long-term stewardship of your property and maximizing the value of your investment.

Since 1909, we have been in the people business, striving to make those in our charge comfortable, safe, and secure while addressing their individual needs. We deeply respect fairness, individual rights, and the humanity of those we work with, which has earned us a reputation that we value.

CORE VALUES

Every decision we make must satisfy two basic requirements. One, it must enrich lives, and two, it must build community. This is our mission. We provide unparalleled professional property management services by adhering to five core values:

1. Be Dedicated
2. Be Optimistic
3. Be Trustworthy
4. Embrace Change
5. Seek to Understand
