Cooper Square in a Select Group of Management Firms

Cooper Square Realty is one of a select group of firms nationwide that have received the Accredited Management Organization (AMO®) designation from the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM). This mark of distinction is granted after a rigorous review of a firm’s capabilities, practices and finances as well as a series of courses and examinations taken by senior management. It is achieved by less than seven percent of the property management firms nationwide and only a handful in the New York metropolitan area.

What does working with an AMO® firm mean to an owner? Quite a lot, for instance:

AMOs adhere to a rigorous code of professional conduct and ethics.

• Periodic monitoring to ensure practices are maintained at IREM’s high standards.
• An independent financial review and demonstration of financial security and integrity.
• AMO® firms are required to maintain professional liability and fidelity bonding insurance to ensure that an owner’s investment is protected.
• IREM calls the AMO® designation “The Mark of Distinction among Real Estate Management Firms.” Cooper Square is proud to have earned it.
