Who We Are

Your Partner. Not Just Your PM.

Conquest Property Management provides skilled property management services to owners and tenants across Smith County and beyond. Every function — leasing, maintenance, inspections, accounting, compliance — is coordinated by experienced professionals whose only business is managing your property.

A lot of real estate offices claim to provide leasing services, but spend most of their attention on sales. At CPM, 100% of every staff member’s day is devoted to keeping homes rented, tenants satisfied, and owners informed. Serving you is our only business.

“No hassle. No smooth talking. No excuses. Just good business.” — That’s been CPM’s operating philosophy for over 40 years.
