About
PRICE IS WHAT YOU PAY BUT VALUE IS WHAT YOU GET!! After being a real estate investor and Property Manager for over 20 years we have seen it all and made all the mistakes. (I often joke and say we have made 1000, $1000 mistakes) This allows us to lead our clients with confidence and see what is around the corner. The real estate investing landscape is way different these days with many pitfalls for Landlords such as frequent local law changes, issues around fraudulent tenants or squatters, and the changing expectations residents have. We are on top of it all, including utilizing AI to be able to run back office operations more efficiently so we can do what really counts, which is be human to human with all our residents, clients, and vendors. We are 100% local in the Chicagoland market with our office centrally in Roselle. We have an in-house maintenance team so we can control resident experience and more importantly client costs, especially since material and labor has been on the rise since 2020. We want to run a tight maintenance schedule. We encourage you to talk to multiple companies when deciding the right Property Manager to hire but let us be one of those firms. Not all Property Management firms are equal, even though all of our pricing is pretty close. If anything, be sure to check out our podcast Straight Up Chicago Investor which focuses on the local real estate investor and all their needs. Mark Ainley Partner/Founder

I hired GC Realty to manage my property, and so far, the experience has been great. They are extremely communicative, and they are working to fill my property quickly. I highly recommend them.

I just started working with Mark after he replied to my request on Thumbtack. His thoroughness, knowledge and overall demeanor sold me. He will be helping me rent my property, and then if all goes well, GC Realty will be managing my property for me moving forward. Excited to be working with them!
