We're Not Just Property Managers

Lakeside Real Estate Services didn't start as a property management company. It started as a real estate ownership operation, and that distinction matters. For over 20 years, we've built and managed our own portfolio of multifamily and commercial properties across West Michigan. We assembled a professional team, developed systems that actually work, and learned what it costs, financially and operationally, to do this right.

We're Property Owners

When other property owners began asking us to manage their portfolios, we were selective about who we said yes to. We weren't looking to grow for the sake of growth. We were looking for owners who share the same philosophy, people who see their properties as long-term investments worth protecting and who understand that well-maintained homes and responsive management aren't just good for residents, they're good for the asset. Owners who take pride in providing quality housing attract better tenants, experience less turnover, and build something worth owning. That alignment is what we look for in every owner relationship we take on. 

What we Manage

We currently focus on properties of 20+ units or commercial assets. If you own a single-family rental or small duplex, we're happy to point you in the right direction, but we may not be the right fit. Our model is built for owners who want enterprise-level management.

What Our Residents & Owners Say

Testimonials

"I lived with my son at Hamilton Park in Grandville for 3 years. Everything about it was a positive experience. The apartment was clean with new carpet. The grounds were always tidy and well maintained. Management and maintenance treated us like friends, something I truly appreciated while I was starting a new chapter."

Cassandra

"I leased with Lakeside Real-estate Services for 3 years. I highly recommend these apartments because Nick the owner takes great pride in his tenants well being. This as well as his staff."

Jerry

"If you are looking for a management company or a place to rent, look no further! Upon move in, I was pleasantly surprised by all the small details: a basket of cleaning supplies, a small plant, even a roll of toilet paper! This attention to detail indicates true caring for the residents and dedication to the upkeep of the Hamilton Park property. You will not see this amount of care from larger management companies. Five stars!"

Carol

"The whole team was nice and easy to work with. They were quick to respond and the maintenance team was also quick and friendly when we needed them."
