Troy, NY – United Plus Property Management, LLC, AMO® (UPPM), the management arm of The United Group of Companies, Inc. has been named the “Accredited Management Organization (AMO) of The Year” by the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM®).

IREM® named UPPM the AMO of the Year during the 2024 Real Estate Management Excellence (REME) International Awards in Indianapolis, Indiana. UPPM was also a finalist for REME’s Innovator Award which highlighted United Group’s award-winning lifestyle program the Senior Umbrella Network (SUN Program).

“I am honored and humbled to have my property management company, United Plus Property Management, LLC, chosen as the Best Accredited Management Organization (“AMO”) in the country by the Institute of Real Estate Management (“IREM”),” Michael Uccellini, United Group’s President and CEO said. “United founded the Albany Chapter of IREM and has been a staunch supporter and participant in IREM locally, regionally, and nationally. IREM is an amazing organization for the property management industry and its educational offerings are second to none.”

2024 marks the second year UPPM has been named AMO of the Year by IREM®. The management company also earned the title in 2019 after earning its AMO® accreditation in 2018.

“United takes full advantage of IREM’s educational offerings and has many Certified Property Managers (“CPMs”) and Accredited Resident Managers (“ARMs”) on its staff. United’s passion for education, cutting edge technology, and efficiencies in systems and programs is a continuous, transformational effort on a monthly and annual basis to deliver the best-in-class property and asset management to our owners, residents and tenants,” Michael Uccellini said.
