Job description

We make good investments in our people, properties, tenants, and company.

CCI is a nationwide full-service real estate platform focused on acquisition, asset management, property management, and development. Our current property portfolio consists of around 8,000 apartments and townhomes, with a focus on providing affordable housing for seniors and persons with disabilities. We also own and manage a diverse and growing portfolio of other real estate assets covering traditional multifamily rentals, office, and light industrial uses. CCI employs around 400 associates in 30 states across the country and we’re growing!

As we enter the next phase of our company’s growth, we’re looking for associates who can help us optimize our existing management platform (systems, tools, and processes), better leverage technology, and maintain our reputation for excellence. We are looking for ambitious self-starters who aren’t afraid to dig in. We value excellent communication and collaboration, and we reward those who challenge the status quo to find better ways of doing things. We believe that people learn best by doing so although we offer a full range of classroom learning and structured training paths, we prioritize hands‑on experience and self‑directed development.

• Assist Property Manager to process tenant recertification, including verification, certification, annual and interim recertification, and maintain leases as needed.
• Assist Property Manager in maintaining 100% occupancy of building at all times.

How do I succeed in this role?

• Take initiative: Understanding the goal, developing a plan, and delivering it
• Be Inquisitive: Not afraid to ask good questions and to challenge the status quo to find better ways to do things
• Be Tech‑savvy: Leverage technology to help increase efficiency and optimize organizational and individual performance
• Be a Good Communicator: Value excellent communication and collaboration; ability to communicate effectively with stakeholders at all levels, verbally and in writing
• Be Detailed‑oriented: Understanding and appreciating the importance of the details while seeing the big picture
