2024 with Drexel Properties

In 2024, we proved that scale and service excellence aren't enemies - they're allies. While growing to manage 1000+ units across 70 buildings, we showed that hands-on excellence actually enables growth.


Key achievements that made this possible:

• Expanded to 1000+ units while maintaining personal service

• Successfully managed major crises including a winter boiler explosion

• Added strategic acquisitions including 90 units in Kilbourn Park/Avondale

• Emerged as industry thought leader through speaking engagements

• Completed my 30th marathon while raising $52,000 for cancer research


Three posts that captured our journey:


"22 years ago today I purchased this 20 unit multifamily apartment building"

On building success through customer service, technology, and discipline

"Building a great company is about building great relationships"

"90 Unit Acquisition in Kilbourn Park / Avondale"

On strategic growth and neighborhood investment

"We believe Kilbourn Park/Avondale deserves better than how these buildings have been treated"

"Team Cathy completed the NYC Marathon"

On combining personal achievement with meaningful impact

"With the help and support of so many people, we raised $52,000 for research and support for those suffering from cancer"

To our residents, team members - some who've been with us for nearly 20 years - and investment partners who've trusted us since 2002: thank you for being part of this journey.


Looking ahead: Our focus remains on strategic growth while maintaining the hands-on excellence that has defined Drexel Properties for 22 years. We'll continue expanding our management services while staying true to our core belief: great property management is about building great relationships.
