Your trusted partner for consumer and commercial collections
At PEM Real Estate Group, we are a leading operator of apartment communities in the United States. Our company was founded in 1993 with a single duplex in Detroit, but over the years, we have grown to become one of the most consistent operators in the country. With over 7,500 apartment units across the nation, we have established ourselves as a reputable and reliable real estate investment and management company.
Our Story
Our journey began with a single goal in mind: to provide a better apartment living experience. With a strong commitment to excellence and a focus on quality service, we quickly expanded our portfolio to over 4,000 apartment units within a short period of 12 years. We continued to grow, acquiring and managing properties across the United States, before selling our entire portfolio and relocating to Arizona in 2005. Today, we continue to pride ourselves on our ability to recognize and quickly seize opportunities as soon as they arise.
