Our History

Empire West was founded in 1990 by Alisa Rattner Gonzalez with the mission of providing hands-on, cost-effective management services to residential and multi-family property owners. Today, Olivia Gonzalez, heads the family business with the same passion and dedication to servicing owners and their tenants.

Maintaining and protecting owners’ investments.

Our team at Empire West has been carefully selected and well-trained to provide clients with a successful experience in the management of their rental property. Over the years, we have built a track record based on performance, transparency, trust and timely communications. Our focus is on protecting and maintaining owners’ investments with the goal of meeting their specific passive income goals as their portfolios change or grow. By meeting and exceeding our clients’ expectations, we continue to build solid and productive relationships that will live on for generations.

Our ability to offer the highest-quality property management services only goes so far as we adhere to our ethics and values. This endeavor would be nothing without our team of skilled professionals trained to carry out our vision of offering healthy/safe homes for all of our residents. In short, your business allows us to compensate our staff, provide paid time off, offer company-sponsored health insurance and foster an enriching working environment.

“We now have peace of mind knowing someone is on call for us, 24/7, for emergencies. Empire West keeps detailed records of our units and follows through on all the necessary paperwork. I’ve recommended them to other landlords and they are also happy with their service.”
