MEET DAVE
Dave Watkins founded Watkins Property MGMT LLC with one goal in mind: to give Pennsylvania property owners a management partner they could actually trust. After years of watching landlords struggle with unreliable tenants, missed rent, and costly maintenance headaches, Dave knew there had to be a better way.
What started as a local operation has grown into a full-service property management company serving property owners across the region. Dave personally oversees every account, ensuring that your investment gets the attention it deserves — not just when problems arise, but every single day.
When you work with Watkins, you're not just hiring a management company. You're gaining a dedicated partner who treats your property like his own.
