ABOUT
I wanted to build an agency where property management was the main focus
Hello, I’m Celeste.
​
I believe good property management needs to serve people. Fairly and responsively. Great property management is all about being:
​
-
Experienced specialists with not 2 or 3 years but over 10 years +
-
Aware of our limits and not spreading ourselves too thinly.
If you are looking for full-service property management – and by that, I mean genuine service, with one property manager accountable from start to finish – you’re in the right place.
What do I know about Property Management?
Well, before opening Colman & Co Realty, I spent years watching property management take a back seat in the sales-dominated world of real estate.
​
I saw property owners frustrated and disappointed on a regular basis – tenants too. One reason was from the revolving door of turnover of property managers and lack lustre service.
​
I was powerless to do much about it in the mostly big brand agencies I worked for. Still, I did pay close attention to what makes property management run smoothly and what makes the wheels fall off.
​
Over the years, I’ve learned what works and what doesn’t across every aspect of the business, including:
​
-
Property appraisals
-
Marketing
-
Leasing
-
Tenancy management
-
Maintenance
-
Trust accounting
Since 2010, I’ve used that experience every day to help give my clients the level of service they want and deserve for their property asset.

There’s nothing more frustrating for property owners or tenants than a property manager who won’t pick up the phone, who won’t respond to emails, or who avoids hard conversations. You’ll never get the run around
from us.
PEOPLE
Agent, owner, tenant, and contractor. It doesn’t matter who a person is, what they have or don’t have; we believe every person should be treated with dignity and respect, so that’s how we roll.
