Kleinman is proud to be one of only five firms in Minneapolis—and the only third-party multifamily residential firm—to hold the prestigious AMO® (Accredited Management Organization®) designation from the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM).

The AMO® accreditation is the highest mark of distinction for real estate management companies. Awarded by the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM), it recognizes firms that demonstrate superior performance, professional ethics, financial integrity, and operational excellence.
To qualify, a company must meet rigorous criteria—covering everything from leadership experience and accounting standards to ethical conduct and client satisfaction—and must employ at least one Certified Property Manager (CPM®) designee. At Kleinman most of our Portfolio Managers are CPM®s.
Earning this credential means that Kleinman doesn’t just manage properties—we uphold the highest standards in our industry.

When you work with an AMO-accredited firm, you gain peace of mind knowing your property is managed according to IREM’s Code of Professional Ethics—a strict set of principles that protect owners, residents, and assets alike.
Our AMO status means:
At Kleinman, this accreditation reinforces what our clients have known for nearly a century: we manage every property as if it were our own.
