President, Sudler Building Services

Joe Armenio joined Sudler in 1998 and has extensive experience as a High-Rise Condominium Property Supervisor, Board President and Treasurer.  In 2008, while continuing his property-management responsibilities, Joe was chosen to lead Sudler Building Services, a value-add division where he supervises, manages and facilitates Sudler’s vast network of vendor contracts.

Sudler Building Services focuses on vetting vendors in order to obtain the best possible value and highest quality service across Sudler’s entire portfolio of clients. Joe takes great pride in the work his team does to save associations money without sacrificing, and often even increasing, service-delivery. On a single elevator-modernization project, Joe was able to save over $800,000; in another effort, he helped re-engineer a chiller system to deliver dramatic savings, improve capacity, and optimize temperature range. He has also worked tirelessly to direct and assist in managing projects ranging from garage floor construction to chiller replacements and lighting retrofits, among many other endeavors to help clients realize substantial savings in every aspect of the respective projects.

Joe has earned the professional designation of Certified Manager of Community Associations (CMCA), and he holds an Illinois Community Association Manager license (CAM). Joe earned his Bachelor of Arts Degree (Magna-Cum-Laude) from the University of Hartford (Connecticut), and a Master’s Degree (with Distinction Honors ) in Organizational Development and Human Services from Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois.

In 1992 Joe and his wife moved to Chicago from Connecticut as a stepping-stone to moving to California.  They never left.  When they aren't working and doting on their neice, they are making the restaurant circuit, traveling to unique fun places, or immersing themselves in Cubs, Blackhawks, or Bulls games.
