account managers
for retail properties

“I have been working with Ilija Pod for several years now and he is truly a best in class property manager. His responsiveness and customer centric business practices are second to none. As a Broker, your relationships are your currency and I am very careful with who I refer business to. Ilija has done an excellent job and I highly recommend using Ilija and Horizon Management to anyone who is in need of property management”.

““As an out-of-state investor, who uses Horizon for management + leasing services, I greatly appreciate their proactiveness and attention to detail in being my local eyes & ears for the property.”

“Horizon Management has successfully managed my Chicago area properties for nearly 20 years. Being an out of town owner I depend on their managers to be my eyes and ears on the property. My Tenants consistently compliment them in their attention to detail. Moreover they are able to effectuate tenant retention and renewals so that my properties consistently achieve maximum NOI.”

“I worked with Ilija and Horizon on a multi-tenant restaurant anchored retail center in Elk Grove Village. Our firm specialized in industrial development but we retained this property as part of a larger development. Ilija and his team were incredibly good in providing us clear direction on how to manage this property, dealing with the tenants and providing accurate and timely cash flow and operating statements. His team really shined during the challenges presented during the Covid lockdowns and without their expertise and excellent management, our outcome on this project would have been much different. They truly were a valuable partner in our success in acquiring, leasing and selling this property."

"Ilija has done a great job building his company to ensure that all property management needs for any investor type are covered. There is not a project too big or small that they would not be able to handle in our world of CRE."

"I have worked with Ilija on a few transactions in the past 10 years. I was the leading broker selling the asset and he was the existing manager. On each transaction, he played a key role in identifying the important aspects that benefited both sides in the deal. He has built a great team around him and will be a continued asset for any property owner looking for an experienced manager."

NOT YOUR TYPICAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

We are proud to say that your properties are our primary business. Our entire portfolio of managed assets are third-party related assignments. We do not own any of the buildings we service. Our owners know they are our only business.

WE are not just managers - we are an extension of a landlord

We are a combination of property management firm, landlord advisor and owner’s representative. As “Third Party Landlords” we care as much as our owners do about their properties. We minimize landlord expenses by running the property properly and care for tenants as an owner would. We take the time to learn every aspect of the property – the fundamental physical characteristics, the neighborhood in which they are located, the markets they serve. We work with any ownership structure – individuals, trusts, even lien companies.

Ultimately, we see our role as the hub of everything related to the property we manage for our clients.
