About us

Property Management: RedStar is a family-owned and operated real estate company. We are licensed and insured Realtors, Property Managers and General Contractors. We started as investors for over 30-years with 76-units of our own currently. We began 3rd party management about 6-years ago to address the concerns we felt with the management industry and now oversee more than 140 properties across Chicagoland. With RedStar, your property, your tenants and you will receive attention from a principal, who can make decisions immediately. You will also benefit from our extensive experience in property renovation and maintenance, which accounts for the bulk of investment expenses. Renovation: RedStar’s elite team of skilled subcontractors under the leadership of an experienced investor and general contractor is perfect for your next renovation project. We are licensed and insured general contractors with over 30-years of renovation experience and a large portfolio of past work and referral clients. From full gut rehabs to a kitchen & bath facelift, we have the knowledge and experience to get the job done in your budget and on time. You will benefit from the same excellent craftsmanship, quality materials and affordable pricing we enjoy on our own property investments throughout the Chicagoland area.

The owner, Erik Carrier, makes service promises that are never fulfilled. We had Redstar as our property managing company for a while and they were a complete waste of money. We actually lost money by hiring them rather than managing our own condo building ourselves. They performed work on the same plumbing problem several times and never resolved it. They gouged us on pricing of vendors they located or hired consistently. They provided us quotes for work that were two to three times more expensive than the quotes we located ourselves. Do your own research on the owner and this "company" and you'll uncover the same background that we did after hiring them. This is a poor excuse for a company, and its leadership is inept, rude, patronizing, arrogant, and unscrupulous.

I've been with Red Star since 2013 and I'm thrilled with the service. I have two small apartment buildings and find everything is just taken care of. I rarely have to even think about the properties. I really trust their judgement and they are conscientious about cost. I've always been paid promptly. Their maintenance staff are great too. I would highly recommend Red Star!

Excellent, all issues were resolved within 24 hours. I had happy tenants who continued to rent until property sold.

RedStar took over my building several years ago and I am thrilled with their service! They are professional, responsive and trustworthy. When I have questions, I have no trouble reaching my manager for help and its such a relief knowing my tenants are being taken care of 24/7 without those frustrating late night calls. I highly recommend this service provider!
