The Management Trust

An interesting thing happened one day back in 2004. Marshall Fant and I, the two co-owners of Transpacific Management Service, looked at each other and said, “So, what should we do with the rest of our lives?” From that simple conversation began the greatest and most rewarding professional journey either of us had ever embarked upon. But first, a bit of backstory. Marshall and I had been partners since 1995 and had grown Transpacific into one of the premier community management firms in Southern California. Both of us brought quite a history to our partnership. He began his community management career in 1966 with Management Service Company, and I began my own in 1986 with Transpacific Management Company. After experiencing years of solid growth together and, more specifically, both of us reaching certain milestone birthdays, it was time for that fateful conversation.
