Crystal Dunmire has been in property management since the mid-1980's when, to help out a friend, she became assistant manager in the 96-unit complex where she lived in Kansas. She soon obtained her real estate license and worked as a Realtor for several years in Kansas.
When she moved to Colorado Springs in 1987, Crystal became the on site manager for a distressed 130 unit property with a high vacancy rate and serious cash flow problems. She discovered she had a real talent for turning around properties and performed so well she was soon given additional responsibilities.
By 1990, Crystal had the responsibility for 1,000 units, eight apartment managers, a marketing director, and a large maintenance department. Simultaneously, Dunmire supervised and was responsible for the daily operations of Bruhn Investment Company.
During these years she continued to increase her knowledge and became an expert in flexible property management and property turnaround. In 1992, armed with her expertise, her exceptional turnaround and management capabilities and a host of innovative ideas, Dunmire purchased Bruhn Investment Company and formed Dunmire Property Management, Inc.
Dunmire's mission statement is "to provide quality property management to owners and residents and to manage each property as though it belonged to us."
Due to an exceptional staff, Crystal has kept most of her original clients, is steadily building her client list and has expanded her services to include commercial as well as residential property management.
Crystal participates in community and real estate/property management activities. She has been a Real Estate broker since 1991 and is a member of The Apartment Association of Colorado Springs.
Crystal has also provided Receivership services for numerous lenders. She is currently an Asset Manager for an investment fund. Her duties include overseeing other management companies to assist and advise them on how to turn around distressed assets to make them marketable and profitable.
Convinced that offering quality service enriches the lives of those serving as well as those being served, Crystal is committed to helping each person in her organization reach their fullest potential and to provide the motivation that will help them realize their personal goals through hard work.
