Our History

Dr. Iacobelli is the founder and president of Independence Management Corporation (IMC Group). As the son of Italian immigrants, Dr. Iacobelli has had a long family history and interest in construction and property development. While attending college Dr. Iacobelli was employed as a part-time construction manager, and in 1981 he graduated at the top of his dental class at the University of Michigan. Dr. Iacobelli then went on to specialize in orthodontics and developed a superior quality multi-locational practice named Orthodontic Specialists Ltd. P.C., known for its high standards. Dr. Iacobelli also conducts numerous teaching activities to dentists and other orthodontists.

Just as he established a high standard for his dental profession, Dr. Iacobelli has extended that same philosophy to his real estate business. Dr. Iacobelli has maintained a builder’s license in the state of Michigan since 1984. Due to the constraints placed on him by his multiple orthodontic practices, Dr. Iacobelli has been more involved in the acquisition, renovation, and management of existing properties, although he has developed numerous properties in his portfolio.

Gina Iacobelli, Vice President of the IMC Group, and Dr. Iacobelli’s daughter joined the company in 2011. She holds a master’s degree in Art History from Boston University and after several years on the East Coast she decided to return home to Southeast Michigan. Gina is a strong supporter of the Arts and shares her love with her growing family.

Gina holds a Michigan Real Estate Broker’s License and is a licensed Manufactured Home Dealer. In her time at the IMC Group, Gina has brokered the purchase and leasing of over 1,000,000 sf of commercial real estate and multiple high-end residential sales. She looks forward to the continued growth of the IMC Group and carrying on the development for another generation.

All of the properties held and managed by Independence Management are in prime locations, well managed, and impeccably maintained to the highest levels in the industry. We are proud of our portfolio and work ethic, and we strive to offer our clients the highest degree of service. We look forward to expanding our portfolio of properties based on these high quality standards.
