Urban Monarch Management

It all started in 2017 when after relocating from Chicago following a successful property management career Rachel Kegley, began searching for employment opportunities in Grand Rapids. Urban Monarch Management was founded out of the need for more professional condominium management companies in the West Michigan area.

Over the years, our portfolio and team has grown but our core values stay the same. Providing expert guidance and leadership to our communities. Our team are all credentialed managers with the Community Associations Institute. Many states nationwide have licensing requirements for community association managers. While Michigan is not one of those states, we follow the same path in investing in education and credentials for our team. This commitment will assure our clients that we are using the best resources and practices out there. We also follow a strict code of ethics when it comes to working with our communities.

Our Clients Say

Beth Parks

Urban Monarch is the 2nd property management company for our community since I have lived there and hands down is far superior to the other company. Where my phone messages and requests went ignored with the other company, Rachel and her team have been friendly, responsive and timely with all my requests. They have been instrumental in improving all aspects of our community, including major projects such as our parking lot project and soon to be updated bylaws. Paying dues, placing maintenance requests and seeing board minutes are easily done through their online portal. It is a pleasure working with Rachel Kegley and would trust and recommend Urban Monarch to anyone needing a property management company.

Sherry Granzotto

Urban Monarch has taken over the management of our property and has done an excellent job., Rachel and her team consistently update our community on all aspects of the property. She and the Board have implemented many changes with the main goal of saving us money in regard to vendors, landscaping, and amenities. She is quick to respond to inquiries and is pleasant to work with. Her knowledge of property management has exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend this company.

Steve Hanson

Urban Monarch has been managing 5 of our residential communities for the last four to five years and I can say, hands down, that this has been the best management company I have worked with in the 32 years that I've been in the business. Rachel and her team have been very professional and easy to work with, and I know that once I hand a community over to them, they have all the systems in place to make that community thrive.

Valerie Garcia

Rachel is the glue that holds our Association together. She is responsive, kind, attentive, and friendly. She takes the time to listen and suggest solutions - and she always keeps a cool head even when community members might get a little heated. We are so appreciative of Rachel and her Urban Monarch team. They always go above and beyond. I cannot imagine what we'd do without her.
