Overview

As a full-service property management company, Charles H. Greenthal Management Corp. is able to offer a complete range of specialized services and an extraordinary degree of personal attention that are not available from other firms.

Managements objective is to grow your real estate investment in a safe and efficient manner which also enhances the quality of life in the building. As the board determines corporate policy, we support their decision making process and then implement your directives into the day-to-day management of the building.

Record Keeping

We offer the most comprehensive reporting in the industry. We include financial highlights, general ledger detail, summary and detailed profit and loss statement, disbursement register, open payables, a summary billing and collection report, bank reconciliation and bank statements.

At the end of each month, we provide your Board with a monthly report.

In addition, we have a team of financial analysts who review your report for accuracy and significant variances, and when warranted, they will bring the variances to the attention of the Board and the property manager.

Budget

When we prepare the annual budget we obtain input from members of the board, your property manager, the superintendent and other professionals. . We review the projected expenses and income and make recommendations based on these projections.

Property Management

To each property in our portfolio we assign a property manager who regularly inspects the building with your resident manager/superintendent, recommends repairs and maintenance, supervises contractor activity and responds to complaints and inquiries.

The property manager reports to the executive committee who reviews management performance and they assist the board with corporate policy and administration. Our representatives attend board meetings which are held at your convenience at our offices or your own building.

Mindful of the need to adhere to the budget, we carefully monitor income and expenses such as billings, collections, payroll, utilities, repairs and maintenance, insurance, taxes, debt services, capital expenses and cash flow.

We supervise the purchase of supplies and equipment and use a written purchase order system, requiring the confirmation of the building superintendent and approval of the property manager prior to payment. Major items and services are discussed with the board prior to purchase.

Competitive bids are secured when necessary and are reviewed subject to the specifications and recommendations of our engineering department.

To facilitate communication we act as a liaison between your fellow residents, staff, contractors and the Board. Greenthal has also established an emergency protocol for dealing with natural disasters and other similar situations. Furthermore, we have off-site control facilities located in the Tri-State area to ensure continuous operation and uninterrupted service.
