KeyVest's Story

Founded by real estate professionals and active investors, KeyVest grew out of a practical need for superior property management.

After launching a successful real estate brokerage, Thomas Santoro partnered with Kurt Brungardt to acquire more than 200 investment properties. As their portfolio expanded, they searched for top-tier property management services in New Jersey, only to find a glaring lack of high-quality options. To solve this challenge, they built their own management firm with the high standards and rigorous oversight required to protect valuable assets.

Having perfected their systems and hands-on approach, the founders now offer that same level of expertise to the broader community. Whether you are an everyday homeowner renting out a single property, an accidental landlord, or a seasoned investor managing a large portfolio, KeyVest delivers exceptional, stress-free management tailored to your needs.
