Working with Root Management has been an amazing experience, and Amber Coppler deserves special recognition. From day one, her attention to detail, responsiveness, and professionalism stood out. It’s rare to find someone who truly cares about both the owner and the guest—and Amber absolutely does. She made the onboarding process smooth, organized, and easy, always taking the time to ensure nothing was overlooked. If you’re considering a short-term rental company, look no further. Root Management has an incredible team, and Amber is a huge reason why.

My name is Sean Easton, Principal of Patrick Development. I was referred by a colleague to hire Root Management to help us close out the Residences development on Notre Dame Avenue and take over management of the HOA. I initially worked with Nicole Read, who did an excellent job with onboarding. As onboarding wrapped up, I had the usual concern that performance might taper off, as often happens, but in this case, the opposite occurred. The level of service met and exceeded my expectations for a management company. This is due entirely to the efficient and responsive work of Amber Coppler. She is a true professional in the property management field, responsive, detail-oriented, and results-driven. She simply gets the job done, which, to me, is what matters most. I give Amber Coppler, Nicole Read, and Root Management my full recommendation.

I worked with Nicole Read in Elkhart when she put herself out there on her run for the city council. She has real world knowledge in Real Estate and a tremendous work ethic. She is a great addition to Roots team.
