Robert’s journey to Pendleton began in 1995, when he helped his grandparents move to the area during a stopover on his way to college. Little did he know, that visit would spark a lifelong connection to the Pacific Northwest. After 25 years of adventure—including a successful career in the California Bay Area and time spent living in the Middle East—Robert returned to the States and made Pendleton his home, joining much of his family already rooted there.
In 2017, Robert launched Robert Alan Property Management. The inspiration? A confrontation with a previous employer about accounting irregularities and missing tenant and owner funds. The employer’s dismissive challenge—“If you don’t like how I run my business, start your own!”—was all the motivation Robert needed. Three days later, he did exactly that.
Before founding RAPM, Robert spent 12 years in accounting and finance for the Bay Area startup industry and five years abroad as a Training Consultant in the Middle East. These experiences shaped his leadership style and commitment to integrity, transparency, and innovation.
Robert’s passion for being an engaged member of the Pendleton community runs deep. He takes pride in building strong relationships with property owners, tenants, and neighbors alike. His goal isn’t just to manage properties—it’s to contribute to a thriving community where everyone feels supported and valued.
Starting Robert Alan Property Management, he says, was the best decision of his life. It’s not just a business—it’s a passion project that has allowed him to build something meaningful alongside a talented team he’s incredibly proud of.
