You’ve just spent the last several months putting the finishing touches on your new development and you’re ready to move on. The last thing you want to worry about is transitioning the project over to the HOA. You need a property management company that will handle the details and the headaches. You need PCM.

We Get it Done.

We’re new-development specialists. Whether it’s assisting the developer in the initial review and establishment of the association’s governing documents, the DRE budget preparation, or the turnover walks of the association’s common areas, we have helped developers in Southern California successfully transition their projects for nearly 40 years. Two of these successful transitions include the Aliso Viejo Community Association, which we’ve managed for over 17 years, and Laguna Woods Village, which we’ve managed since its inception.

We understand the challenges that developers face in new communities. We work diligently with developers and homeowners to keep the lines of communication open and ensure a smooth transition at build-out.

PCM manages over 100,000 units in Southern California – in associations with as few as 6 units to as many as 18,000. We manage condominiums, townhomes, high-rises, master-planned communities, active adult communities, and single-family home projects including those requiring full on-site management with extensive recreational facilities, programs, and golf course operations.
