Position Description
About the Role
We are seeking a highly motivated and organized Property Manager to oversee operations at our Newark properties. This role combines traditional property management functions—leasing, resident relations, rent collections—with a strong operational focus on leading teams, driving apartment flips, and ensuring units are rent-ready as quickly and as efficiently as possible.
This is not a desk job. The right candidate is hands-on, solution-oriented, and thrives in a fast-paced environment where grit, accountability, and problem-solving are critical to success.
Key Responsibilities
Operational & Team Management
- Lead daily operational oversight of our Newark property locations while coordinating from our Columbus office.
- Manage and direct maintenance staff and apartment turn processes. Coordinate and oversee outside vendors and contractors as needed.
- Drive efficiency and quality in apartment flips, ensuring rent-ready units meet standards.
- Track progress, hold team members accountable, and resolve roadblocks quickly.
- Monitor budgets and vendor invoices to control costs and maximize profitability.
Property Management Functions
- Oversee the leasing process, including advertising, tours, applications, and approvals.
- Manage resident move-ins, move-outs, and renewals.
- Collect rent, monitor delinquencies, and enforce lease compliance.
- Submit and track work orders while ensuring timely completion and resident satisfaction.
- Maintain compliance with property standards, fair housing, and safety regulations.
- Build positive relationships with residents to support retention and community reputation.
Qualifications
- Strong background in operations, retail management, or team leadership; property management experience is a plus but not required.
- Proven ability to manage people, delegate tasks, and enforce accountability.
- Exceptional organizational, scheduling, and problem-solving skills.
- Ability to balance hands-on work with administrative responsibilities.
- Grit, adaptability, and a proactive approach to challenges.
What We’re Looking For
- A self-starter who takes ownership of the properties as if they were their own.
- A leader who can motivate, coach, and hold teams accountable.
- An operator who can juggle leasing, resident relations, and turnover timelines seamlessly.
- Someone who thrives on results—quality units flipped fast and leased to quality renters.
Why Join Us
This is a high-impact role where you’ll directly shape the success of two communities. You’ll manage people, projects, and residents while driving results that matter--faster flips, higher occupancy, and stronger community standards.
