Our Client Testimonials
“As a homeowner for 10 years, and a Board member for 7 years, I have worked closely with A&R Management. Karen’s team has always been responsive, professional and friendly. Their experience has helped to guide our next 10-year plan. Our on-site manager is particularly remarkable. Laurie has been able to react to emergency and non-emergency situations with incredible knowledge and empathy. As a Board of Trustees, our initiatives and direction are made easier by working with such knowledgeable professionals.”
Clifford Birnbaum, Board Member, Sparta, NJ
“Our Association is extremely pleased with Alliance Property Management – we wish we always had Joseph Balzamo and his Company as our management. Joseph Balzamo and Alliance Property Management are true hands on management who make themselves available no matter what the situation is at our property. During Super-storm Sandy Alliance was able to have all of our buildings back to full operation in a very short time – truly amazing. Their management expertise and skills have proven to be invaluable. Alliance has helped us in maintaining timely collections and kept our Association financially solvent. They have conducted an extensive review of our expenses and continue to improve the quality of our property. We highly recommend Joe and Alliance Property Management.”
Frank Anello, Board President, Allendale, NJ

“As a home owner for six years and Board member for almost as long, I have been very pleased with A&R Management and especially with our Property Manager, Laurie. In my experience, the entire team has always been responsive to the needs and desires of our community. With their help and guidance, we have successfully completed some major projects while remaining fiscally strong. I am especially impressed with Laurie’s knowledge of our individual residents and history of our community. She has always been available to me as a Board member to discuss matters, sometimes even on her own personal time.”
Joan Lucas, Board Member, Sparta, NJ

Jill Harding, Board Member, Hackettstown, NJ
“Our homeowner association has been working with Alliance Property Management for 15 years. We are extremely pleased. The service is reliable, consistent, and exceptional. Their property management skills and experience has proven to be invaluable to us in our property in Morristown. Alliance always goes above and beyond to help homeowners in the community and resident needs always come first. The bottom line is that Alliance always treats our property like it was their own.”
Pat Geary, Board President, Morristown, NJ
“As a Board Member and past president of our community, I have always found A & R Management to be excellent. Their representatives make a sincere effort to be knowledgeable of state and local regulations and supportive as they guide the Board in making difficult decisions. Through their guidance, the Association has been successful at making prudent decisions that reflect a balance of what’s best for the community and maintaining a conservative financial responsibility. They are personable, approachable, and available when needed.”
Kevin Walsh, Retired Board Member, Hackettstown, NJ
“I have to start by saying I felt honored to be asked to write a few words about your wonderful company and the people who work here. I purchased a condominium here about 3 years ago moving from Pennsylvania when I lost my son and became guardian to my grandchildren. Knowing nothing about the workings of our community I had to ask a lot of questions and emailed Laurie and called the office many times. From the first time up until now, everyone has been wonderful to deal with. Everyone from supervisors, board memebers, handymen and groundskeepers have gone out of their way to help me when needed. I am so glad to have moved my family here and I do tell everyone how lucky I am to be here. I have no plans in the future to leave this thriving community.”
Joann Swade, Resident, Sparta, NJ
“Alliance Property Management has helped our building through most challenging of times. From collections to general maintenance of the building, Joe has been hands-on to coordinate whatever is needed in order to get the job done. Their management experience and skill continue to help our homeowners association in addressing the constant upkeep that is required for the property.”
Kenny Polak, Hackensack, NJ
“It feels as though we are Alliance’s only client. They promptly answer our telephone calls and emails. If a task can be accomplished quickly, it is done immediately. When a task requires time, Alliance keeps plugging away until it’s finished. It is wonderful to have someone with whom you don’t have to follow up constantly to get the job done. Alliance also brings skills in accounting, construction, negotiation, condo law, transition management, collections, repairs and many other issues facing a condo association.”
Stephanie Kashkin, President, Passaic, NJ
“By all measurements we are a small community, but what immediately struck a chord of confidence, security and knowledge was the way Karen treated us. She had treated us as if we were one of her largest clients. We have leaned on her team for basically everything and they have not only provided the services but also educated us every step of the way. Our transition period was a particularly difficult one, but A&R Management not only told us what to look out for, but educated us on certain items we hadn’t even been aware of. The net result of the transition was receiving double the amount of what the builder had originally offered. To this day we are very satisfied with the services and costs associated with A&R Management. It has been a wonderful relationship and I would highly recommend them for any size HOA community.”
Ray Bonanno, Board Member, Montville, NJ
“Our Homeowners Association has had a relationship with Alliance Property Management for almost 10 years. During this time, Alliance has helped us develop and implement sound business decisions in maintaining our property at a reasonable cost. Alliance has also ensured that we meet all requirements of State and City ordinances. During the last five years, Alliance has led us through difficult financial times which presented a challenge in maintaining timely collections and managing the property. Alliance’s experience has kept our association financially solvent and the property in a very good state of repair. Overall, I believe our association would not be in the condition it is today without Alliance’s guidance.”
George D Zuk, President, Newark NJ
“We’ve been with Alliance Property Management for 6 years. When we first met with them, we were in the final stages of transition and had issues with roofing, siding and pavers. But when Joe stepped in, everything went smoothly. Previously, we spent tens of thousands of dollars on engineering and legal fees and still nothing was getting done. Within a very short time, all matters were resolved. Joe is involved in every aspect of our property and handles many of our emails personally. Unlike other companies that replace or substitute staff, Joes is always there to address our needs. Alliance has a representative stationed at our clubhouse three days a week to perform administrative work such as giving out pool badges, arranging appointments with homeowners and contractors, and scheduling events at the clubhouse. This benefits residents because they know someone is at the clubhouse three days a week and they can find someone who works for the association at that time. We are extremely pleased with his performance and the performance of Alliance Property Management and we recommend them highly.”
Henrietta Foglio, President, Somerset, NJ
“A&R Midstate Management has strengths in the day to day management of our property, in expense management and in guiding our Board in planning for the longer term needs of our community. A&R takes the financial health of our Association very seriously. In the first year of our contract with A&R, our agreements with our vendors were put in contract form to better protect our Community. A&R also has a strong base of vendors to seek bids from and holds chosen vendors accountable to perform the contracted service, both in terms of quality and timeliness. Finally, A&R is strong in its communications to home owners via Newsletters, email alerts and responsiveness to home owner inquiries. A great management company to partner with!”
Sue Burgess, Board Member, Hackettstown, NJ
“Alliance managed the transition process from a company who had been with us for 20 years. Alliance jumped right in and weeded through the necessary paperwork to get us rolling quickly. All my emails and calls were answered expeditiously. Every time I contacted Alliance, they offered suggestions and gave me a greater understanding of how to better approach any topic. Together, we developed a unique strategy that worked for our community. Alliance is hands-on when it comes to property management.”
Lorna Lewis, President, Elizabeth, NJ
“Alliance Property Management has been nothing short of a life saver for our condominium association. Alliance’s deep commitment, expertise and professionalism have been the driving force towards not only the solvency but the continued value of our properties. Alliance is a tireless advocate for the property and its care and well being, always staying more than one step ahead in our needs and concerns.”
Carmen Artis and John Hammel, Morristown, NJ
