Together these firms managed 151,000 properties in 2014, a figure that represents a 13.7 percent uptick from 2013. If you look back at the change from 2012 to 2013 you will only see a 7.9 percent increase, so portfolio growth is accelerating.<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, we saw average occupancy decrease from 91.9 percent in 2013 to 90.9 percent in 2014. We interpret this decrease in occupancy as a result of the significant amount of new supply in the apartment, office and industrial sectors. The good news is that this slight decrease in occupancy is easily offset by the 7.8 percent increase in average rents seen from 2013 to 2014. There are a lot of apartment managers on this list and we attribute most of the rent growth to multifamily.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1004125183\" style=\"width: 830px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1004125183\" data-attachment-id=\"1004125183\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/2015-top-property-managers\/top-property-managers-2015_list\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2418,3884\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Top Property Managers 2015_List\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?w=637\" class=\"wp-image-1004125183\" src=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg\" alt=\"Top Property Managers 2015_List\" width=\"820\" height=\"1317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg 2418w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=187,300 187w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=768,1234 768w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=637,1024 637w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=956,1536 956w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=1275,2048 1275w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=150,241 150w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=300,482 300w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=696,1118 696w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=1068,1716 1068w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=1920,3084 1920w, https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2015\/08\/Top-Property-Managers-2015_List.jpg?resize=261,420 261w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1004125183\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Click to Enlarge<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Methodology<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nThe 2015 CPE-MHN Ranking of Top Property Management Firms utilized self-reported property characteristics for all firms.
