Job description

The Role:

We're looking for two experienced Lease Up Property Managers to drive lease-up operations at one of our workforce+ institutional-style communities. This is a hands‑on, high‑ownership role: you'll be 100% responsible for day-to‑day operations from day one, managing leasing activity, resident relations, financials, maintenance, and vendor workflows. If you know how to lease a building fast, run it clean, and you live in Yardi — this is the role for you.

What You'll Own:

• Full day‑to‑day operations at an institutional workforce housing property— this property is yours to run
• Drive lease‑up from vacancy to stabilization — manage your full prospect workflow in Yardi CRM
• Show, screen, and lease units; process applications, move‑ins, move‑outs, renewals, and notices
• Book and manage receivables; maintain accurate financial records in Yardi
• Own monthly, quarterly, and annual variance reporting and budget adherence
• Supervise your Maintenance Technician — coordinate work orders, vendor scheduling, and quality control
• Manage vendor relationships and payables workflows
• Serve as the primary point of contact for residents — handle issues, elevate appropriately, and close the loop
• Ensure the property shows well, stays compliant, and performs against budget at all times

What You Bring:

• Proven lease‑up experience at a workforce+ or institutional‑style multifamily property — required
• 3+ years of property management experience with at least 2 years supervising others
• Yardi CRM proficiency — you manage your prospect pipeline in the system, not a spreadsheet
• Strong command of Yardi for all operational functions: move‑ins, move‑outs, renewals, work orders, AR/AP
• Solid understanding of landlord‑tenant law, leasing compliance, and fair housing
• Financially fluent — you can read a budget, explain variances, and own the numbers
• Self‑directed, organized, and able to operate independently without hand‑holding
• Passionate about SoLa's mission of providing high‑quality affordable housing
