About First Class Realty & Property Management
At First Class Realty & Property Management (FCPM), we know what frustrates property owners most: poor communication, hidden charges, unreliable tenants, and costly repairs that drag on. We built this company to solve those problems. We don’t just manage homes — we protect income, grow portfolios, and give owners peace of mind. Every decision we make comes from the perspective of being owners ourselves. We meet tenants in person, catch maintenance issues before they escalate, and deliver clear, detailed updates without the runaround. Whether you own one home or fifty, we treat your property as if it were our own — because your investment deserves nothing less.
