Flat, honest pricing
One straightforward management fee. No markup on maintenance, no surprise lease-renewal charges, no junk line items.
We're a Portland-based team of nine managing 640-plus doors across Greater Portland — local, transparent, and the kind of manager you never feel like you have to check up on.
Anchor began in 2012 when founder Dana Whitcomb bought a two-unit in East Bayside, handed it to a national management company, and spent a year fixing their mistakes — buried fees, slow repairs, and a different account rep every month. She figured Maine owners deserved better.
Thirteen years later, our team of nine manages 640-plus doors from our office on Forest Avenue, and we still treat every building like it's our own first rental. We're not trying to be the biggest. We're trying to be the one you never feel like you have to check up on.
Most owners come to us burned out from a national firm with hidden fees or a part-time landlord setup that fell apart. Here's what's different about working with us.
One straightforward management fee. No markup on maintenance, no surprise lease-renewal charges, no junk line items.
We don't manage from a call center three states away. Our team knows your block, your assessor, and which plows clear it first.
A named property manager owns your account. You text a person, not a ticket queue.
We treat your repair budget like our own money and tell you when a fix can wait and when it can't.
No hard sell, no obligation — just a clear picture of what your unit could earn and what it'd be like to have us managing it.
