Sound Familiar?

You didn't join your board to chase your management company.

If any of this sounds like your building, you're not alone. It's the reason most boards start looking for someone new.

Calls and emails that sit for days.

You reach out, and days go by before anyone responds, while the issue doesn't wait.

Vendors nobody's tracking.

Contracts get signed and forgotten, until an unpaid vendor stops showing up altogether.

Capital projects that stall.

Facade work, roof repairs, Local Law compliance: the longer they sit, the more they cost in fines and scaffolding.

Financial reports that raise more questions than they answer.

Vague line items and missing documents make it hard to know where your building actually stands.

Being the one who ends up handling it.

When management doesn't answer, board members become the management company. That's not what anyone signed up for.

A hundred years managing NYC properties taught us that boards don't need another company that promises to do better. They need one that already knows how.

Founded in 1925

Still Family-Run Today.

Edwards Sisters Realty Associates, the company behind Esra Management, is the oldest Black family-owned real estate firm in New York. What started with Fitz Benjamin Edwards and his daughters in the Harlem Renaissance has grown into a full-service property management company that still manages the fiscal health, maintenance, and community standing of the buildings in our care the same way it always has: personally.
