- Lease, lease, lease! Conduct engaging property tours, follow up with prospects, process applications, and help maintain strong occupancy.
- Coordinate move-ins, move-outs, lease renewals, and resident communications.
- Prepare, review, and maintain accurate LIHTC and HUD compliance files, including income certifications and recertifications.
- Assist with rent collections, delinquency follow-ups, deposits, and required notices.
- Support PRA program requirements and documentation.
- Maintain organized, accurate, and audit-ready resident files.
- Assist with property inspections, maintenance coordination, and resident concerns.
- Support the Property Manager with daily operations, reporting, financial processes, and occupancy goals.
- Deliver exceptional customer service while maintaining compliance with Fair Housing and company policies.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Hands-on experience with LIHTC / Tax Credit AND HUD affordable housing programs. Both are required.

- Experience with rent collections, resident relations, and property management operations.
- Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and the ability to manage competing priorities.
- Ability to work independently, take initiative, and contribute immediately.
- High school diploma or GED.
- Tax Credit certification or ability to obtain certification within the required timeframe.
ADDITIONAL QUALIFICATIONS THAT WILL SET YOU APART
- Bilingual English/Spanish skills are a huge plus, but not required.
- Experience with PRA and market-rate housing.
