Our history
Founded in 2010, Premier Management LLC is headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota by Richard W. Hutsell.
Premier Housing Management LLC has a strong commitment to excellence, and we strive to be the best in the business. Premier provides property management services for affordable, market rate, common interest associations, real estate brokerage and development and acquisition consulting services.
At Premier, we work hard every day to earn your business and surpass your expectations by providing a hospitality level of customer service to property management and regulatory compliance.
The firm’s leadership is well known in the business. Our unique property management and compliance model was created and developed over 15 years by our President, Richard Hutsell. This time-tested model has received numerous awards for excellence from federal and state regulatory and governmental agencies, multi-housing trade associations and large foundations.
Over the last twenty five years, Mr. Hutsell has served in senior executive management positions with both the largest affordable housing non-profit and large for-profit entities in the Twin Cities. With those organizations Mr. Hutsell oversaw cumulative portfolios in excess of 150 properties located throughout the Midwest with a value of over one billion dollars and annual operating budget in excess of 100 million. He has a proven track record of managing diverse portfolios to financial and regulatory success and has a demonstrated knack for turning troubled properties into high performing assets. Under his direction, the two large property management operations he ran served over 10,000 units of cooperatives, apartments, townhomes of family and senior affordable housing, market-rate communities, communities serving persons with disabilities, as well as assisted living communities.
Decades of experience
After years of working in the real estate industry, we learned first-hand how the other real estate companies do business and saw that this model could be greatly improved upon. Premier Management set out to offer a better experience by building our business around you and understanding the real importance of connecting with people.
We employ the most accountable staff in the business which will take the worry off of you. You’ll quickly feel the difference when partnering with a company that wants your business and is dedicated to your long-term success.
