Owner Testimonials

Matt is the key to the success of my rental property investments. I live in Missouri, but own property in Jacksonville, IL, so having a property manager I trust is invaluable. Matt can rapidly solve problems on his own, but he asks my input on the most critical tasks. Matt and his services allow me to be hands-free and headache-free while my investments consistently cash flow.

My wife and I are thrilled with the property management being provided to us by Matthew Wardell from Shive Realty Property Management.  From the very beginning Matthew has been very informative and extremely helpful.  He’s always contactable and is always prompt in answering questions and organizing anything that needs to be done.  We truly feel that he goes above and beyond to deliver wonderful, personalized property management of the highest standards.  His attention to detail, clear communication, professional knowledge and attentiveness means we can sleep well at night knowing that our investment portfolio is in the best possible hands.  Matthew usually secured great tenants within 48-72 hours of advertising.  I’m sure this is achieved, at least partly, because Matthew showed the units to prospective tenants at whatever time and day was convenient to them.  This was another point of difference from other agencies, which we thought demonstrates Shive Realty’s commitment to service and achieving the best outcomes possible. Matthew is particularly good at meeting our needs, as landlords, as well as that of the tenants.  Consequently, our tenants are appreciative and co-operative, so everyone’s happy.  Thank you, Matthew, for continuing to deliver excellent property management.  We know you’ve got everything covered, so we don’t need to worry about a thing!  We can’t recommend Shive Realty Property Management highly enough.
