Austin Business Journal's 2025 Best Place to Work award badge

For the third year in a row, 1836 Property Management, Austin’s premier property management company, has been recognized by the Austin Business Journal as a Best Place to Work, ranking #1 in the Micro category for 2025.

Recognition from the Austin Business Journal

The ABJ announced winners recently for the 2025 Best Places to Work in Central Texas at an awards luncheon held at the Kalahari Resort. Nominations were open to companies located in Bastrop, Burnet, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson counties.

What Is the Micro Category?

The Micro category includes companies with 10 to 24 employees. 1836 Property Management made a major leap this year—moving from #12 in 2024 to #1 in 2025.

Building a Family-Like Workplace Culture

“I am so excited and humbled that we were recognized for the third year in a row among ABJ’s Best Places to Work,” said Matthew Leschber, the broker and founder of 1836 Property Management. “We have always worked hard to build a family-like atmosphere within our company, and that has allowed us to provide excellent service to each of our clients.”

How the Rankings Are Determined

Each year, Quantum Workplace conducts confidential employee surveys for all nominated companies. The surveys measure attitudes across six themes:

  • Trust in leadership

  • Team dynamics

  • Personal engagement

  • Manager effectiveness

  • Individual needs

  • Communication and resources

Responses are given on a six-point scale, converted into a 100-point system to determine final rankings.

Putting Employees First

“We have always strived to make sure that our employees love coming to work every day, as we know they spend a large portion of their days with us,” Leschber said. “It’s extremely pleasing to see that our employees have appreciated that effort and have recognized us for this. Our team will always be central to what we do at 1836 Property Management.”
