Founded in 1930 by August Kleinman, Kleinman Realty Co. was among Minnesota’s first professional property management firms — created at a time when the concept of multifamily management itself was still taking shape. Nearly a century later, the company remains one of the Twin Cities’ most trusted names in residential property management. What began as a small family business has evolved into a modern organization serving owners who value integrity, stability, and thoughtful stewardship of their properties.

Through the Great Depression, economic shifts, and waves of industry change, Kleinman has endured by staying true to one simple principle: do what’s right, even when it’s not easy. Long-standing relationships — with residents, vendors, and property owners — continue to define the Kleinman way. Many of those partnerships span decades, built on trust, transparency, and a shared commitment to creating well-maintained, vibrant communities across
While rooted in tradition, Kleinman’s approach to innovation is anything but old-fashioned. The company embraces technology not for trend’s sake, but to enhance communication, efficiency, and resident experience. From online leasing and mobile maintenance systems to data-driven financial reporting and responsible deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI), every modernization effort is guided by purpose: to better serve clients, empower employees, and elevate the standard of property management.
Today, Kleinman continues to blend the values that shaped its past with the tools that define the future. As an IREM-accredited AMO® (Accredited Management Organization®) — one of only five in Minneapolis and the only third-party multifamily firm with that distinction — Kleinman remains dedicated to setting the benchmark for ethical, professional, and people-first property management. Because for Kleinman, success isn’t just measured in buildings managed, but in trust earned and communities strengthened.
Kleinman is one of only five firms in Minneapolis—and the only third-party multifamily management company—to earn the AMO® (Accredited Management Organization®) designation from the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM). It’s the industry’s highest mark of excellence in property management.
