Questions About Selling? We’ve Got You.

Why would I consider selling my property management business to PMI?

PMI specializes in acquiring established, local management companies while preserving your legacy, your team, and your client relationships. Our national brand, systems, and support help ensure a smooth transition for everyone involved.
Will my information stay confidential?

Absolutely. All conversations are private and owner-only. We never share or publish details about your company without written consent and will always sign an NDA.
How does the valuation process work?

It starts with a confidential conversation to understand your portfolio, revenue mix, and operations. From there, we provide a fair market valuation based on industry benchmarks and your unique business metrics.
What if I’m not ready to sell yet?

That’s perfectly fine. Many owners talk with us months—or even years—before they’re ready. Starting the conversation early helps you understand your options and plan your ideal exit on your timeline.
How long does the sale process usually take?

Most transactions close within 60–120 days, depending on due diligence and structure. Our experienced team guides you through each step to keep things moving smoothly.
Will my staff or clients be affected?

We prioritize continuity. Our goal is to keep your team and clients supported throughout the transition so service levels remain strong and relationships stay intact.
What types of property management businesses does PMI buy?

We’re interested in residential, association (HOA), short-term rental, commercial, and multifamily management companies generating $1M–$5M in annual revenue.

Chad Smart

Co-Founder and Director of Sales

Chad Smart, Co-Founder and Director of Sales, was born and raised with an entrepreneurial mind set. After serving in the U.S. Navy and spending many years working in finance, it was time for him to have his real estate dreams come to fruition. He moved himself and his family to the surrounding Charlotte, N.C. area, to team up with his brother in building a rental property business. Within four years, this family team dedicated all their time to purchasing, completely repairing, renovating, and renting out eight-single family homes. At the same time, he also worked a full-time job in finance and head of commercial real estate, at a Fortune 500 company.

After an underwhelming search for a property management company for his own rental properties, he realized that there was no one better to manage these properties than the same family team has been working with for years. He knew each member could bring their own skills and abilities to the table to ensure a reliable and customer-centric property management company. With that, PMI Charlotte Metro was born. Chad’s extensive experience and entrepreneurial tenacity makes him an integral part of the PMI Charlotte Metro team.
