Property management built for long-term performance.
Local, full-service management for Rochester rental owners—from one house to a growing multifamily portfolio. We align our fees with stable occupancy, responsive operations, and the long-term health of your property.

A different incentive structure
We don’t make our money churning tenants.
Our intentionally low lease-up fee reflects a simple belief: management should be rewarded for building durable tenancies and well-run properties—not for repeatedly turning units. When all fees are considered together, our structure is designed to stay competitive while keeping our incentives aligned with yours.

Straight answers before we talk.
What types of properties does Updegraff Management manage?
We manage single-family rentals, two- to four-family properties, larger multifamily buildings, mixed-use assets, and select commercial properties in the Rochester region.
How many units does Updegraff Management oversee?
Our portfolio fluctuates with acquisitions, sales, and client needs, but typically includes approximately 350 to 450 units under management.
How is your fee structure different?
We use a comparatively low lease-up fee because our goal is to support durable tenancies, not generate revenue from unnecessary turnover. Owners should compare the complete fee structure—not one headline percentage—when evaluating management companies.
Can you manage a larger apartment community?
Yes. Our operating experience spans hundreds of units and multiple property types. We welcome conversations with owners of larger apartment communities who want accountable, locally based management.
