Condominiums and Cooperatives

Working with Associations
Working with condo and co-op boards is as much as an art as it is a skill. A management company must be able to balance the needs of the community with the individual desires of the owners and the politics of the building. First Priority Management has more than two decades of experience successfully working with condo and co-op owners. We provide the following services:
Maintenance & Repair
  • FPM can use your existing vendors or our own. We have developed an extensive network of skilled service providers that we can call on or we can use your current service providers. All vendor invoices are billed at cost with no markup.
  • Owners have access to our online maintenance request system.
  • FPM can provide experienced maintenance personnel as dedicated site based staff or on as needed basis.
  • The same services available to the building are also offered to individual owners.
  • A FPM team member will supervise all work done by a third party.

24/7 Emergency Support
  • FPM provides maintenance support for common areas and lockout services.
  • Individual owners and residents can also take advantage of our emergency services.

Preventative Maintenance
Because a small problem can become costly in the long run, we make every effort to prevent small problem from becoming big ones. We conduct regular inspections of common areas, roof tops and HVAC units.

Reserve Fund Development
  • FPM works closely with our clients to ensure their money is working for the while still being accessible for emergencies.
