FirstService Residential Awarded Prestigious AMO® Accreditation by IREM®
Canton, MA (February 23, 2021) – FirstService Residential, North America’s property management leader, earned the AMO® (Accredited Management Organization) accreditation from IREM (Institute of Real Estate Management). FirstService Residential’s New England operation joins an exclusive group of nearly 600 real estate management companies worldwide that have met the requirements to earn this distinction.
“We’re thrilled to receive this impressive accreditation,” says Michael Mendillo, president, FirstService Residential. “It is an important symbol of our ongoing commitment to deliver service excellence to the associations we serve. Designations and accreditations are becoming increasingly more important to boards and trustees in their due diligence process.”
Recipients of the AMO accreditation demonstrate strong financial performance, outstanding leadership and adhere to a Code of Professional Ethics strictly enforced by IREM to maintain integrity beyond reproach. Accreditation as an AMO requires firms to follow best practices in real estate management, demonstrating that they meet standards and functions related to operations and service. Property owners can be assured that an AMO will put their interests first.
“We value our ongoing partnership with IREM and are honored to have received this acknowledgment,” says Bryan Hughes, CPM®, CMCA®, president, New England, FirstService Residential. “Our values are aligned with those of IREM, including integrity, transparency and consistently well-managed communities. We are grateful for IREM, its local chapter leaders and members, and we look forward to continuing to partner together.”
The AMO accreditation sets the standard in property management excellence for firms of all sizes. Our AMOs lead the industry in conduct and unmatched client service,” says Chip Watts, CPM®, CCIM, IREM President-Elect and President of Watts Realty Co., Inc., AMO®. “We congratulate FirstService Residential on this accomplishment and welcome them into this exclusive group of property management firms.”
