About Cleaver Property Management

Cleaver Property Management is a family-run company, which reflects in our unique office culture: There may be contractors buzzing around, catching up with our Property Managers on the progress of repairs. Or we may all be gathered in the kitchen, as we like to take our lunch breaks together to spend time as a team. The phones may be ringing off the hook or it may be eerily quiet. Either way, at around 4.30pm on a Friday you'll hear the gentle jingle of the drinks trolley, as our lovely Office Manager delivers a light tipple to each desk.
