Job description

Part-time groundskeeper roles at manufactured housing communities tend to get overlooked, but they carry real weight. An 81-home community lives and dies by its curb appeal and the condition of its common areas. At Mountain View Estates in Longmont, this is a 10-hour-per-week position, so the work is focused and the expectations are clear: show up, keep the property looking sharp, and flag problems before they become work orders.

What the Work Actually Looks Like

Most of your time will split between grounds maintenance and common area upkeep. That means operating mowers, trimmers, and blowers; inspecting and adjusting irrigation systems; and doing a morning walkthrough to catch anything that needs attention before residents notice it. The role also includes chainsaw work for larger limbs or debris, pool maintenance during season, and trash-out duties when abandoned items or bulk waste accumulate. You'll also handle interior common spaces: sweeping, scrubbing, disinfecting, keeping the leasing office and community rooms presentable. None of this is glamorous, but it's the kind of work that makes a manufactured housing community feel well-managed rather than neglected.

What IPG Is Looking For

About Investment Property Group

IPG is a private investment and management firm based in Park City, Utah, with a portfolio that spans 150 properties across 13 states, covering multifamily, manufactured housing, and RV communities. The company puts weight on employee development and internal culture, and given the size of their operation, part-time roles like this one have a track record of becoming full-time when the right person is in them. The pay range for this position runs $20 to $24 per hour depending on experience and qualifications.

One honest note: manufactured housing communities have a different rhythm than conventional apartment properties. Residents often own their homes and have long tenure on-site, so the relationship between staff and community members tends to be more personal. Being consistent and approachable matters as much as the quality of the grounds work itself.
