About Us
Tony A. Drost, MPM® RMP®, has been an investor and property manager since 1990. Tony has a BA Degree in Operations Management and holds two professional designations offered by the National Association of Residential Property Managers®.
One fact that makes First Rate Property Management different from all others is that Tony is an investor too. Tony has the proven formula for financial success through investing in real estate. Although Idaho does not require licensing of property managers, Tony is a real estate broker with Swope Investment Properties and assists his clients in buying and selling of rental properties. To learn more about Tony's real estate sales, please visit his Boise Investment Properties website. Because Tony is so active in rental investments, Tony manages your property as if it were his own. Tony instills this perspective to all First Rate Property Management employees.
First Rate Property Management's property-to-employee ratio is approximately 60 properties managed per employee. Call around and you will find that many companies have a property-to-employee ratio of over 100 properties managed per employee and, in some cases, as high as one person to every 200 properties managed. The difference likely is not the lack of good systems on First Rate Property Management's part -- our systems are top-notch, proven and reliable -- but rather more about the personal time we devote to each of our valued clients and tenants. First Rate Property Management personally shows each of our properties with a leasing agent, whereas not all do. As a result, First Rate Property Management is able to attend to our tenant and client needs very quickly.
Please review our guarantee and learn more about our education and qualifications that make us one of the best.
Mission: Our well trained, committed, and valued team provides genuine care for the properties we are entrusted to professionally manage.
Vision: Maintain recognition as one of the most knowledgeable property management companies within our market, through continuous improvement.

Outside of work, Sunni enjoys spending her free time reading, painting or just spending time with her friends and family. She was born and raised here in Idaho and has no plans to leave this beautiful state anytime soon!

Tricia is knowledgeable about all of First Rate’s available properties, their included amenities, and their surrounding areas. She also has a very sweet demeanor around the office and we love having her. Even sweeter than Tricia herself is the candy she brings to share with the FRPM team for any occasion!

When Angiee isn’t at FRPM she’s working on her online businesses, enjoying a wine tasting, traveling, or spending time with friends and family.

Kurtis grew up in the Treasure Valley and absolutely loves Idaho. When he is not crunching numbers, he loves to fly fish and get out as much as possible in the beautiful Idaho scenery. Kurtis is a big fan of dogs, especially Labs!


In the summertime, Lacey loves to ride four wheelers, go camping with her family, BBQ, and take long road trips! In the winter, she likes to be snuggled up on the couch watching movies or playing games with her family.

Sydne is currently attending CWI to get her degree in photography and hoping to pursue a business of her own.

During the summer, Sydne enjoys camping, paddle boarding, and fishing. In the winter she likes to go snowboarding, visiting the hot springs, or cuddling up in some blankets to watch a movie with her family.

Nique was born and raised in Idaho and has 6 children and 2 dogs. Her favorite thing to do when she’s not working is to spend time with her family. They love camping, fishing, BBQ’s, watching movies, and just going for drives to discover new places. Nique also loves football and basketball, and loves attending her boys’ games. Nique is always setting goals, whether at home or at work, to do better than she did yesterday. She is a real go-getter!

In his spare time he enjoys being with his two daughters, spending time doing outdoor activities such as camping, hunting, and fishing. He also loves to sit down and watch movies or TV with the family and play games. He was born and raised in Idaho and is very familiar with the area and that is what drives his love for the outdoors.

Jerod graduated from Lewis Clark State College with a B.S. in Business Administration in 2018. Most of his previous experience comes from retail, where he played a management role for almost 10 years. He is excited for the chance to develop the skills he learned in school in a career field that he is very passionate about. First Rate can’t wait to see where Jerod’s path leads next and is happy to have him as part of the team!

Outside of work, Kat can be found exploring the Boise Foothills, riding on the Greenbelt or sipping on her favorite cider from Merriweather.

In her spare time, Beny enjoys hiking, reading, crafts, and traveling. Speaking of traveling, she has lived in seven states in the last dozen years and is happy to finally find a home in Boise! Since she moved here a few years ago, she has made a point of getting out and exploring the area. If you are moving from out of the area, feel free to ask her about the best place for Thai food, local wine & beer, live music, dog-friendly hiking trails, or anything else!
