Bio
David M. Magelssen founded northern Management in June 1989. David began his career in property management while attending St. Cloud State University. In 1985 he was recruited by one of the largest property management companies in central Minnesota as a Resident Manager of a 104-unit property in St. Cloud. Under the direction of three Certified Property Managers and one candidate, he started at the bottom and worked through all the levels, learning the aspects of property management with hands on experience, and incorporated these principles into his own philosophies. This training and experience has proven to be beneficial through cost reduction and resolving problems efficiently. After graduating in the spring of 1987 with a Bachelor of Science in Business/Management he was promoted to Leasing Manager and Assistant Property Manager.
In 1989 David contracted to manage a large apartment portfolio and established Northern Management. By implementing effective and efficient management strategies he quickly increased the portfolio to include many locations throughout the state as well as in St. Cloud. Northern Management's continual growth is a direct outcome of David's driving commitment to professional property management. This commitment is implemented in the management, marketing and maintenance services provided to every resident and property owner.
David has achieved the distinguished designation as a Certified Property Manager. The Institute of Real Estate Management awards this designation to the top professionals in the real estate management industry. It is awarded to those who have managed a substantial portfolio for a minimum of five years, and then must complete a vigorous schedule of course work and testing. To conclude the criteria David researched, drafted and completed a 250-page comprehensive management plan. This plan was evaluated and accepted by a Senior Certified Property Manager.
Northern Management has established a strong tradition of management expertise, financial stability, professional excellence and integrity. This organization has grown from its start in a small office suite to ownership of the corporate office located at 1725 W. St. Germain, St. Cloud, MN. David has successfully employed and educated his staff members to have the same driving commitment to professional property management.
