Bellingham Welcomes New Property Management Firm
August 06, 2020
Real Property Management Teyata, a black-owned company offering the benefits of size with the personal connection of local ownership, recently opened in Bellingham.
Eric Peoples and Lawton Coursey launched the franchise, which specializes in managing residential and multi-family properties. Real Property Management is the nation’s largest property management company, able to leverage vendors for premium pricing, they said.
“We can offer both landlords and tenants technologies that ease the stress of owning/renting properties and provide real-time accounting, maintenance, and management updates through our interactive portal,” Coursey said. “When owners hand over their rental property to us, they can have complete confidence that a firm with a proven history of success is on lead and they can go about their lives without a constant fear of what is taking place with their investment home.”
Peoples also owns Real Property Management franchises in Bothell and Bellevue after working in management positions for Amazon, Anheuser Busch and 3M for more than 20 years. He began investing in rental properties in 2008. Coursey, a Washington State University graduate (magna cum laude), has been working in real estate for five years, most recently for a property management firm in Edmonds. However, Coursey said Bellingham offers more than the Greater Seattle area for several reasons.
“I have always been an outdoor enthusiast who finds little joy within the concrete jungle,” he said. “Bellingham’s unlimited access to outdoor recreation like snowboarding, mountain biking, and mountaineering were huge driving factors. Also, Bellingham and its residents hold the same values and communal principles that we hold dear.
“We want to focus our energy on becoming a respected business within Bellingham and striving to be part of the community and culture of the city.”
