    1.Position Summary

    The Multifamily Acquisitions Manager plays a senior leadership role responsible for driving Bruziv Partners’ acquisition strategy and executing investment opportunities from origination through closing. This position oversees the sourcing, evaluation, negotiation, and successful execution of multifamily investments while helping guide portfolio growth initiatives.
