Fantastic experience: Mika went above and beyond to get my property rented! After several issues with another property management company, Mika and Kilpelainen Property Management stepped in and saved the day. Mika is personable, extremely responsive, highly knowledgeable, and works tirelessly to get the job done. He made what had become a stressful process feel manageable, and I truly appreciate his professionalism and dedication. I highly recommend Mika and Kilpelainen Property Management!

Fantastic experience: My husband and I recently rented through Kilpelainen Property Management and had a wonderful experience working with Mika. He was consistently kind, respectful, and professional throughout the entire process. From start to finish, Mika was thorough and prompt, always answering our questions and providing timely follow-up whenever needed. We also found the resident app to be very convenient and easy to navigate, which made the rental experience even smoother. We would gladly work with Mika again and highly recommend both him and Kilpelainen Property Management. Thank you, Mika, and the Kilpelainen Property Management team!
Fantastic experience: My wife & I recently rented through Kilpelainen Property Management & had a great experience working with Mika. He was prompt throughout the application & move-in/ move-out process. He always answered any questions we had and helped us navigate any issues that would arise. The resident app is also convenient, it makes it easier to pay rent. I would recommend them. Thank you Mika & Kilpelainen Property Management!
Fantastic experience: I didn't go with Kilpelainen at first. I thought I could save money by managing on my own. That was a mistake!! Since switching ive had fewer headaches, better tenants, and more income! If you want to own rentals and sleep at night, hire them now!
Fantastic experience: They are so helpful! Mika is great! They have always answered the phones and every question with clarity and so much respect. We have been walked through the whole rental process and they take care of everything. We know our property is in good hands with Kilpelienan Property Management and our minds are at ease.

Fantastic experience: Mica and his team makes me feel safe. I can trust him to do what he says! If you need a property manager leave it to him and his team!
Fantastic experience: Our refrigerator started going out on New Year's Eve and ushered in the New Year with a fridge that couldn't be reset or brought back to life. (We tried) I knew it would be a long weekend before businesses got back to work but I reached out to Mika anyway. He responded shortly later informing me they would replace the refrigerator. Come Monday morning I got another text telling me the new refrigerator would be installed that day. By 2:30 on Monday the old fridge was hauled out and the new one was in place. It's rare these days to find someone who responds on a Holiday and then follows through immediately the next business day. I knew when I started renting from Mika that I was getting into a special type of business relationship, but my family is so thankful for his immediate response time to this type of home disaster. Thank You Mika! You're the best!
