“Anna’s work at Southfork
absolutely exemplifies the excellent level of customer service and
detail-oriented approach Draper and Kramer’s residential management division is
known for,” said Deanne Logan,
regional property manager for Chicago-based Draper and Kramer.
“While no one
appreciates her leadership and dedication more than we do, we’re thrilled to
see her hard work and accomplishments recognized by the Minnesota MHA and
others in the industry.”
In her role as property
manager of Southfork Townhomes,
Javellana oversees 272 rental townhome units in a community that features a
natural, wooded setting and extensive on-site amenities, including an oversized
outdoor pool and a recently renovated clubhouse where the management team
frequently hosts exclusive resident events.
Under her management, the
community has experienced increases in average occupancy, lease renewal rates,
SatisFacts resident survey scores and Apartment Ratings scores.
Javellana’s attention to
detail and clear communication with residents was key in ensuring a number of
major projects in the past year went smoothly, including complete landscape
reconstruction, resurfacing of parking lots and driveways, extensive concrete
replacement, and new roofs and insulation for all buildings.
Logan noted Javellana is
also known for organizing the community’s annual holiday party, which features
live reindeer and sleigh rides. “It’s one of the most popular events for our
residents and they’re still talking about last year’s party almost a year
later,” said Logan.
