Company Description

Atlas Lane is a full-service leasing and property management company serving the single-family rental (SFR) housing sector.

Job Description

We're looking for an entrepreneurial, high-performing property manager to help launch Atlas Lane in Northern Virginia (NOVA). As our first Property Asset Manager in the NOVA market, you'll have the opportunity to build a team from scratch and define the market for our company. Working with the back office services we've built out (bookkeeping, application processing, maintenance and repair support), you'll manage our NOVA portfolio and help us become the market-leading single family property manager in the area.

If you've ever wanted to join a company from the ground up and control your own portfolio of business, let's chat.

Your Opportunity:

• Become an entrepreneur within the safe confines of an established business. 

• Build your own portfolio with limitless income potential as your rent roll scales.

• Work within an established property management business with sound financials and the ability to meaningfully invest in making you successful.

• Build a team and contribute to a culture of hard-work and merit without sacrificing work-life balance. 

• Work with a team of passionate A+ players looking to modernize a traditional industry. 

Your Responsibilities:

• As a Property Asset Manager, you'll be the quarterback for our owner's properties -- their single point-of-contact to provide status updates, recommendations, and manage any ongoing projects at the home. You'll work with our Maintenance and Repair Phone Triage, Bookkeeping, and Application Processing teams to resolve issues quickly and ensure the ball is never dropped.

• Onboarding new clients (and their properties) into the Atlas Lane ecosystem: collecting key information, setting expectations, ensuring state/municipal compliance, and ensuring a smooth transition to management. You'll perform our comprehensive onboarding inspections (and, eventually, work with a full-time Maintenance & Repair Coordinator to do so), creating punch lists of work to be done, reviewing/approving quotes, and managing the various vendors required to get the home "Rent Ready".

• Identifying, evaluating, and onboarding new vendors into the Atlas Lane network to support our growing collection of homes.  

• Managing ongoing Maintenance and Repair projects, ensuring our various vendors are resolving issues quickly and cost effectively.

• Working with our bookkeeping team to run weekly billing, monthly rent collection, and monthly Owner Disbursement efforts for your portfolio.

• Marketing soon-to-be vacant properties for-rent online; Providing updates and recommendations to your clients in an effort to maximize speed to lease; Conducting tours for interested prospective tenants; Recruiting and training part-time Leasing Consultants to help perform tours.

• As our NOVA portfolio grows, you’ll have the opportunity to recruit, train, and coach new members of the NOVA team (Property Managers, Leasing Consultants, M&R Coordinators) as Atlas Lane further expands into the market.

Qualifications

• Minimum 3 years of experience in residential single-family home Property Management.

• Must have a valid VA Real Estate License.

• B.A. preferred, High School Diploma required.
