FAQ — NYC Co-op & Condo Property Management Search
What is a property management search service?
A property management search service helps your co-op or condo board find and hire the right property management company for your building.
Unlike property management firms, we don’t manage your property — we guide your board through a structured, unbiased process to compare NYC’s top management firms, evaluate proposals, and negotiate fair terms.
How is The Folson Group different from other property management companies?
We’re not a property management company — we’re independent consultants who work for the board, not the managers.
Because we’ve worked with nearly every firm in the city, we know each company’s strengths, weaknesses, and fit for different building types.
Our goal is to find the right match for your board, not to sell you management services.
What happens during the management transition?
The transition is where most switches go wrong, so we don't hand you off at contract signing. We stay through the entire transition and verify three things before we consider it complete: the most time sensitive systems are onboarded first (elevator, boiler, and leaks), your financial portal is set up correctly so owners can pay from day one and the board can approve invoices, and your accountant is set up to retrieve the financials so next year's audit goes smoothly. Your board never has to chase the handoff.
What types of buildings do you help?
We help NYC co-op and condo boards across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Westchester.
Whether your building has 4 units or 400, we tailor the search to your size, service expectations, and financial goals.
How long does the property management search process take?
Most searches take approximately 12 weeks from discovery to final contract.
We move as quickly as your board is ready to — while ensuring every proposal, reference, and negotiation is handled professionally and thoroughly.
