M.C. Layman Real Estate Services and Keller Properties: A Growing Partnership

Frederick, MD - In a significant development for the commercial real estate sector, M.C. Layman Real Estate Services has announced an expansion of their property management engagement with Keller Brothers and Keller Properties. This partnership reflects their shared commitment to operational excellence and long-term asset performance, which is poised to benefit both entities and the local community alike.

The collaboration effectively began in October 2025, when Keller Brothers acquired a prestigious asset known as 411 Aviation Way. This Class A, multi-tenant office building, measuring 35,000 square feet, not only serves as an office space but has also become the corporate headquarters for Keller Brothers. M.C. Layman was chosen to oversee the full-service management of this property, providing a strong foundation on which to build further collaborations.

Building upon the successful management at Aviation Way, Keller Brothers decided to widen the scope of services provided by M.C. Layman. This decision included management of additional legacy properties located on Rosemont Avenue and Yukon Court. As a result, M.C. Layman will now deliver a suite of comprehensive property management services across three locations. These services will encompass daily operations, financial reporting, capital planning, vendor coordination, and tenant relations, ensuring that every aspect of the properties is met with the utmost care and professionalism.

Phillip Keller, President and CEO of Keller Brothers, articulated the importance of finding a partner that aligns with their mission. He stated, "Keller looks for partners who share in our mission of passion and integrity that we bring to our business every day. M.C. Layman quickly demonstrated that they understand our expectations, and expanding their role across our portfolio was a logical next step." This statement highlights the vital relationship and trust developed between the two companies, further indicating a promising future for their collaboration.

Kate Layman, the Founder and CEO of M.C. Layman, echoed similar sentiments, expressing pride in earning Keller's trust and the opportunity to grow alongside a company deeply engaged in the Frederick community. According to her, this engagement strongly aligns with their commitment to providing hands-on, owner-aligned management that protects and enhances long-term value.

The positive outcomes of this partnership are already evident as M.C. Layman experiences rapid growth in the Frederick commercial real estate landscape. Since its inception in September 2024, the firm has consistently expanded its managed portfolio, leveraging local market expertise coupled with robust institutional-grade systems. This strategic positioning has made M.C. Layman a trusted partner for property owners looking for careful stewardship and scalable operating practices.

In summary, the expanding property management engagement between M.C. Layman and Keller Brothers marks a significant milestone not just for the respective organizations, but also for the Frederick community. As both companies continue to grow and collaborate, they are poised to enhance their service offerings further, benefiting tenants, investors, and stakeholders alike.
