About Our Company
A Partner Who Understands Your Community
Mike Pate is a lifelong resident of DeSoto County, Mississippi, where he and his wife—high school sweethearts—have lived since childhood. Married since 1994, they raised two sons in the community they love and are now proud grandparents. Before founding Community Management Partners, Mike served as a police officer and detective in DeSoto County for 14 years, specializing in crimes against children. His dedication to protecting the vulnerable continues through his ongoing role on the Board of Directors of his local child advocacy center.
Mike is a licensed Real Estate Broker and a builder through the Mississippi Board of Contractors. He’s also a member of the Hernando Rotary Club, where he’s helped lead nonprofit fundraising initiatives that support the local community. After spending nine years on his own neighborhood’s HOA board—and dealing with the frustrations of subpar association management—Mike launched CMP to do things differently. Today, Community Management Partners is grounded in responsive service, clear communication, and a deep respect for property owners and the communities they call home.
