Chelsea Company Management LLC is a family-owned and operated business that has been providing off-campus apartment rentals in the Downtown/Yale area of New Haven, Connecticut, since 1978. The company was founded by Ardelle Cowie, who has also served as the chair of the New Haven Fair Rent Commission and the Uptown Council. Today, Ardelle's daughter, Sarah Marconi, runs the operations of the company along with 8 full-time staff members. Chelsea Company has a full-time leasing office, full-time maintenance staff, and a 24/7 emergency maintenance hotline, ensuring efficient and responsive management. Tenants have consistently praised the company's professionalism and responsiveness.

Lived here for a year. Staff was very easy to communicate with and were very professional. Could reach them by phone or email within 24 hours. Maintenance was solved quickly and neighborhood was safe. Highly recommend them, one of the few genuinely caring landlords I've found.
