Description

As a Make-Ready, you are critical to the property’s ability to meet its weekly readiness and leasing goals. You will use your strong attention to detail to turn over recently vacated apartments and make them ready to rent to new residents.

The How…

You get to use your one-plus years of general maintenance experience to make repairs to all surfaces in the unit, ensure doors and windows are in working order, replace or repair all fixtures, shelving, and lighting, change out HVAC filters, clean or replace damaged carpeting and flooring, paint units, confirm appliances function as expected, and clean the apartment before the move-in date.

You are committed to creating a safe working environment for the team and a safe living environment for our residents with a safety-first approach to everything you do.

Since you enjoy handyman work, you don’t mind pitching in when needed to help the Maintenance team keep up with ongoing facility maintenance and repairs. Your friendly and efficient approach is perfect when engaging with residents about the property.

The Details…

• You will work full-time Monday through Friday at our location. Since maintenance emergencies can happen at any time, this role does require occasional on-call hours as set by the Property Management team.
• During high-traffic holiday periods, the position is scheduled according to Company standards; the supervisor must approve schedules
• While we provide equipment and supplies to complete most work orders, you must maintain your own tool kit to complete work orders. Occasionally, you may need to use either a company-owned vehicle (or your own) to move about the property or to pick up supplies off-site. Therefore, you must have a valid driver’s license to be effective in this position.
• We offer many benefits to meet your needs, including medical, dental, vision, and basic life insurance options. The company provides auto-enrollment in its 401(k) plan after 60 days of employment. New employees accrue 40 vacation hours in the first year and earn paid sick leave per state requirements*. Eligible employees also receive holiday pay (if working) or paid holidays (if scheduled off) for six holidays each year**.

We can't be an industry leader without you. Apply Now!
