On a February 9th blog post, Park Place Property Management listed the top 5 management companies in the Boise area, which listed First Rate Property Management as #1.  As they explained in their opening paragraph, investors need to be well informed and educated when it comes to choosing the right property management company for them. FRPM can not agree more.  Investors need to interview property managers and choose the one that is the best fit for them. For example, FRPM only manages in the Boise, Meridian, and Eagle areas and an investor that we had been working with recently identified a single family rental in Kuna.  So we referred them to one of our fellow colleagues.

Its an honor to be ranked #1, but even greater, is to see the industry leaders acknowledging that with the growth of the Boise and Meridian areas, landlords have many options and should do their homework and select the right property manager.  We’ll take it even one more step and suggest that renters also do their own research before choosing a rental.  Below is the full blog post from PPPM.
