About Us

Nelson Management Group

Nelson Management Group, Ltd. is a full-service Real Estate Management firm, specializing in the management of multi-family properties within the 5 boroughs of New York City. The principals of Nelson Management Group, along with its affiliates, have owned and/or managed more than 8,000 units of rental housing over the last 33 years. The staff at Nelson Management Group has managed thousands of rental units, all with the same care, vigilance and hands-on attention that have proven successful with our own portfolio of buildings. The firm is particularly adept in the ownership/management of Rent Stabilized, Section 8 and Mitchell Lama properties.

Nelson Management Group offer state of the art financial and account reporting systems, plus a legal tracking system to streamline arrears collections. We also have a team of renovation specialists who can assist in the complete remodeling of apartments or just renovating a kitchen or bathroom. Our renovation department provides services from design through construction and ensures quality, cost-effectiveness and value.

Finally, every rental property that comes to Nelson Management Group is analyzed and subjected to a “Critical Assessment Period” or “CAP” to determine a framework for dealing with all aspects of the building’s management. By the time the CAP is over, we know everything there is to know about a building and we are able to set up a customized “standard operating procedure” for the running of each individual building.

“Nelson Management believes that a property’s assets are fortified by a hands-on management style. Our goal is to protect the asset and increase its value.”

A Message From Our President

Over the past 32 years, I have done just about everything that can be done in this business; from planning and development to construction, ownership, sales, and property management. If there’s one principle that has defined my success, it is the knowledge that for any type of company to be successful, those who are in charge must be “hands-on”.
