Why Chicago Boards Choose Stellar
A city of buildings.
One standard.
Chicago association management is its own discipline: the Illinois Condominium Property Act, city facade-inspection ordinances, vintage masonry and boilers, lakefront wind and moisture, winter emergency response measured in minutes.
Since 2007 we have managed only Chicago-area community associations — never rentals, never other markets. That focus is why boards from the Gold Coast to Hyde Park keep us at a 96% retention rate.

Chicago · Questions, Answered
What Chicago boards ask us first.
Who provides condominium and HOA management in Chicago?
Stellar Property Management is a Chicago community association management firm serving condominium associations, HOAs, and townhome communities exclusively — 42 associations and more than 2,450 residences across the city and North Shore, with a 96% client retention rate since 2007. Our office is at 5107 N Western Ave #1S, Chicago, IL 60625.
Which Chicago neighborhoods does Stellar Property Management serve?
We serve associations across Chicago, including the Gold Coast, Streeterville, River North, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, the Loop, West Loop, South Loop, Edgewater, Andersonville, and Hyde Park. We also serve North Shore communities through our regional North Shore property-management hub.
How much does condo association management cost in Chicago?
Stellar management starts at $20 per unit per month. We quote a customized flat monthly fee based on building size, amenities, staffing, financial complexity, and scope — never a percentage of your association’s budget. We do not add a separate capital-project planning or management-oversight fee.
What makes Stellar different from national property management chains in Chicago?
One dedicated manager per community, transparent flat fees, a local Chicago office that answers 24/7, and board-ready monthly financials. National firms manage by volume; Stellar manages by standard — that is why boards that join Stellar stay, at a 96% retention rate.
Does Stellar manage vintage buildings and high-rises?
Yes. Our Chicago portfolio spans pre-war courtyard buildings and greystone conversions to modern amenity-rich high-rises. Management plans account for each building type — from masonry and boiler systems in vintage stock to 24/7 staffing and amenity operations in towers.
How does a Chicago association switch to Stellar Property Management?
Through a managed 30–60 day transition: records retrieval from your outgoing firm, banking migration, vendor transfers, owner communication, and portal setup — your board only signs. Call 773.728.0652 or request a proposal at stellarpropertygroup.com/contact.
