Jesse James

Senior Portfolio Manager
Senior Portfolio Manager

I have worked in the Real Estate and HOA Management business for 15 years with a gradually increased workload. I started out as an Administrative Assistant and worked my way up the ranks as a Rental Maintenance Coordinator, HOA Onsite Community Manager for various high-end communities and now my current position as the Sr. Portfolio Manager for our Gaithersburg office.

My main objectives as a Sr. Portfolio Manager are to support and mentor the administrative and community manger staff and be present with my experience to assist when needed. I also want to build relationships with the communities we manage and be an additional resource to the Boards. I am a firm believer that the community and management relationship is built on teamwork where we all do our part to achieve mutual success and reach the community goals. I want the Boards to view the PMP Community Managers and Management team as a trusted advisor and not just another vendor. I use the analogy of a sports team and I see the Board of Directors as the owners of their team (community) and we as the management team are the head coach running the day to day and working hard to succeed.


I have achieved the credentials of Certified Manager of Community Associations (CMCA), Association Management Specialist (AMS) and Licensed Community Association Manager (LCAM) in the state of Florida. I am currently working towards my Professional Community Association Manager (PCAM) designation and hope to achieve by the end of 2023.


I look forward to assisting you with your Community Management needs and I look forward to having PMP join your team.

Rose Thomas, President

Rose Thomas started PMP over 40 years ago, with a handful of clients, determined to be the best property management company in Frederick. And though we’ve grown a lot, PMP is still dedicated to giving every client the same excellent service.

Our knowledgeable staff can help you find qualified tenants, collect rent, and work to protect the value of your rental property through proper maintenance. PMP’s application process includes credit history, employment history and rental history; late fees are charged and court papers filed if rent is not paid by the fifth of the month; and we do a thorough, documented inspection of your property prior to every lease renewal and at move-in and move-out. PMP uses current technology to help you keep accurate, detailed financial records and issues monthly and year end statements.

Rose Thomas and her staff are active members of the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM), a forum for professional education and exchange that gives valuable insight and helps keep PMP a step ahead. Over 40 years’ experience, combined with continuing professional education, qualifies PMP to guide you through the complex world of rental property management.
