Welcome to Kerr Properties, Inc.
Your Housing Solution Company for Portland & Surrounding Areas.
Kerr Properties, Inc. specializes in the management of houses and small plexes in the Portland area. We understand that proper maintenance and effective cost management are the key ingredients of a good, sound Portland investment property.
Because our business model focuses solely on the management of our rental properties, we’re able to concentrate our efforts to maintain a constant presence in local markets, creating value in all phases of the owner's management cycle. We have the same financial sophistication, institutional quality reporting and leading edge property management technology as many of the nation's largest property management companies, but our smaller size and local market expertise means that we can provide better service and be more responsive to both our residents and our clients.
Our dedication to redefining excellence in renting means we’re constantly exploring innovative ideas and pioneering new ways to serve our residents and clients.
