Time Marches On...

Around The Clock, Inc. CRMC® is a certified residential management company serving South King and North Pierce Counties. We lease and manage single-family and small multiplex rental properties as well as provide management services for community associations.  We also list and sell real estate.

WE value the Certified Residential Management Company CRMC® Designation we earned through the National Association of Residential Property Managers, NARPM® in 2002. It is awarded after an intense audit of the company’s contracts, written policies and procedures, forms, personnel training, practices, accounting standards and office operations.

WE are one of five Certified CRMC® Residential Management Companies in Washington State and 35 nationwide who hold this professional designation of excellence.

WE are, in addition to our affiliation with NARPM®, members of the Community Associations Institute, Northwest Multiple Listing Service, the Kent Chamber of Commerce, and the Kent Downtown Partnership.

WE support a variety of these organizations activities as well as many other community service projects.

WE began serving the public in 1990 leasing and managing rental properties.

WE added community association management services in 1992.

WE added real estate sales in 1993 making us a full-service real estate company.

WE started Around The Clock, Inc. with four personnel and today in 2011 we have 17 personnel made up of 11 licensed real estate brokers and six support staff.    

WE require all of our Leasing Agents and Property Managers be licensed real estate brokers and encourage them to be members of the National Association of Residential Property Managers® (NARPM®).

WE require our Association Managers also be licensed real estate brokers and encourage them to be members of the Community Associations Institute® (CAI®).

WE have brokers who manage both types of properties and are members of both organizations.

WE award every member of our Around The Clock team shares of company stock after five years. They are also eligible to receive additional shares every three years. After seven years a share holder is qualified to serve on our corporate board of directors to oversee company activity and plan its future. We believe this makes us a stronger company and encourages our team’s dedication and commitment.

Our corporate board of directors is comprised of President Suzanne Cameron, MPM® RMP® and Vice President Mary Tungsvik, MPM® RMP® who started the company in 1990. Our Treasurer is Jenny Allyn who oversees our accounting department. She has been with our company since 1991. Our Secretary is James Emory Tungsvik, MPM® RMP® who manages a portfolio of rental properties and community associations. He has been with our company since 1993. 

Three of our corporate officers have earned the prestigious Master Property Manager® MPM® and Residential Management Professional® RMP® designations through the National Association of Residential Property Managers®, NARPM®. They are Suzanne Cameron, MPM® RMP® President and Designated Broker, Mary Tungsvik, MPM® RMP® Vice President, and James Emory Tungsvik MPM®, RMP® corporate Secretary.
