OWNERS
“You are a Miracle worker” from an email concerning Kevin’s take-over of an extremely distressed N. Florida property that was brought up to standard without additional owner funds and ultimately sold for a significant profit.
L. Mey
HUD Contractor Administrator
“Kevin put together a budget-based rent increase presentation for HUD who approved my property for an unheard of 13.7% (rent) increase. Results from changes he initiated were almost immediate. Financially, they have made a big difference creating economic efficiencies.
As we continue to acquire additional apartment communities they are the people we would trust with the management. I am not concerned about my asset any longer because Grail Management Group is: involved, committed, conscientious, and dedicated to managing our property efficiently”

“He took over the property following the sudden resignation of the previous management company and proved very adept at handling the property and finding solutions to bring it up to speed in a cost effective manner. Financial records were well kept, always accurate and timely. Management was courteous and professional. No matter what the situation, Kevin Grail was always calm and ready with a solution. The property presented numerous difficulties. Kevin brought it around to the point it could be profitably sold. I found him to be the model of professionalism.”

He produced sound financial results.”

EMPLOYEES
Having worked with Kevin Grail for approximately 20 years I am uniquely qualified to give my wholehearted recommendation for him as an asset manager of multi-family properties and as a friend. As President of the company, Kevin managed properties profitably allowing for quarterly returns to investors, and multi-million dollar returns upon the sale of those properties. As a leader in IREM, NAA and SAHMA, Kevin always was on the forefront of innovation in our industry and our investors reaped the benefits of that knowledge and leadership ability.

Kevin Grail was one of the best managers I have had. From my first encounter to the last day I worked with Kevin, he never changed. No matter how bad the situation seemed, he would always open your eyes to the positive. As an Assistant Manager, I appreciated his willingness to initiate new ideas and work with you, and not just give oversight to see them through. When working with Kevin, he wants everyone to succeed!!!
