About Us
Our Company
“Unlike many of our competitors, we founded our company based on a need for superior service in the rental market, not as a knee-jerk reaction to the shifting economy. The timing was perfect, and we have never looked back. We are passionate about an industry from which most people shy away, and we are enjoying every moment of it.”
The only way to offer exceptional service in such a fast-paced, high-volume environment was to develop a business strategy that specializes in residential management. Actively managing all aspects of rental properties to protect our clients’ investments is our top priority. We are members in good standing with NARPM - the National Association of Residential Property Managers. We are fully staffed with exceptionally talented individuals, making us one of the best property management companies in the Atlanta area, if not the best. We invite you to our office to meet our team, ask questions, and see for yourself how we are committed to being Atlanta’s premier source for property management.
We recognize the challenges posed by the current economy and understand that a large segment of homeowners have unexpectedly become ‘accidental investors.’ Whether managing your portfolio or a single property, we are fully equipped to take on the task and provide exceptional service. We appreciate your visit to our site and hope you will choose Platinum Property Management Services, Inc. as your business partner.

How I Play:
Family is #1 (including my extended Platinum version!) – come to my office to see giant custom fatheads of my three kiddos. A close tie for second are my beloved Bills, Sabres and CU Buffs (One BUFFALO!!!!).
My TV only needs one channel – ESPN – and I am not afraid to rock the playoff beard in the pre-season. Yes, I did say “rock”. Born and raised in the greatest city of all time – Buffalo, NY, I order “pop”, not Coke, soda or sweet tea.
And, I just call em Wings.

My BFF and wife Meredith have known each other for 30 YEARS and she STILL puts up with me! My true love!
Phil Earley
Owner/Broker
I am a very proud Dad of a great son and daughter who are now young adults. I can’t believe time flew by that fast.
I have a love for most anything old. The rustier and crustier the better. I enjoy restoring and driving old cars, my beach bikes are from the 50’s, and my patio furniture was new in the 1930’s.
Customer Service is what I am good at so helping landlords and tenants was a natural fit. I think I need to open up Platinum Beach Rentals to round out my career.

How I Play:
I enjoy all the seasons that Georgia offers, especially since I am from New Hampshire (NH). I did enjoy the ‘snow apocalypse’ back in 2014, though. I’m a happy mom of two sons and am looking forward to what life has in store for them. I am super driven to accomplish anything I put my mind to.

Sweets are my obsession! Every time I eat them I say to myself this is the last one. No more!!! It seems that I keep saying this to myself all the time!

Laura Birr
Licensed Leasing & Sales Agent
How I Play:
My first passion is my three Huskies, Parker, Polar and Murci. Coming in at a close second is my husband... he's amazing but the dogs are number one! We enjoy spending time with our pups by taking them on long walks and for car rides in the mountains. I love to cook and bake, especially for friends and family. There is nothing better than sharing good food and good conversation with the ones you love! When I need to slow down I can be found at home or at the track watching Formula 1 and Moto GP with my hubby.
Secret revealed
My daily driver is a 400+ horsepower Volkswagen MK6 GTI. The need for speed... it's in our blood!
Jeni Granade
Licensed Leasing & Sales Agent
I have 3 teenage daughters, a wonderful husband, and 2 yellow labs that keep me busy at home! My husband and I are both Alabama graduates, and our oldest daughter is a freshman there now. So, needless to say, we say ROLL TIDE in our household. I keep busy on weekends watching my girls' cheerleading competitions and tennis matches, and traveling to Tuscaloosa to visit my oldest daughter and watch the Tide Roll. I also love to be outside. Hiking, running, and doing absolutely anything at the beach, which is my happy place.
Secret revealed
I am a thrill seeker. I have been skydiving and bungee jumping. My next bucket list adventure is a hot air balloon ride.

Proud Mom to an Awesome daughter, she is my biggest fan and I am hers. I love anything with sun and water.

Self proclaimed foodie, love trying new restaurants and cuisines.

Tricia Crews

I was born and raised in Miami, FL. I grew up going to the beach every weekend. I went to FIU and received my BS degree in Hospitality Management. I have 2 amazing kids and one awesome dog. Every weekend you will find me working on and updating my 1950's home with a little help from my friends of course. Journey is my favorite band of all time.
Secret revealed
Color Guard was a big part of my life for over 12 years, performing and teaching. You know, the ones that spin the pretty flags on the field with the band.
Sabina Celosmanovic
Operations Specialist/Maintenance
I am the mother of two girls and grandmother of two cats Ginger and Honey. I hope you can tell I love cats. I enjoy cooking for my family and friends and I take NO when it comes to food, so you have to eat at my house and take the food with you for later. I also love to travel with my family and friends and my favorite vacation place is Destin, Florida.
I have been married for 30+ years and I love being married to my husband because he is my best friend and together we are a great team and hopefully a good example to our daughters of how marriage should be LONG and HAPPY.
