About the Role:
The Assistant Property Manager owns two functions outright (unit turnovers and move-out deposit accounting) and handles the escalated cases on the full Specialist scope. Day-to-day technique coaching and case escalation run through the Property Operations Lead. Half field, half desk.
Work from home with no office to commute to. A few hours each week visiting properties across King, Snohomish, and Pierce counties for inspections, showings, and vendor walk-throughs. You must live within reasonable driving distance of the service area. Reliable vehicle and valid WA driver's license required.
Responsibilities:
Turn Over Coordination. Own each turn from move-out through ready-to-lease: scope, vendor sequencing, owner approvals, days vacant, total cost.
Deposit Withholding. Produce itemized move-out statements under WA law. Reconcile inspections and invoices. Handle resident disputes.
Owner Communication. Lead cost and tradeoff conversations. Deliver withholding letters in a tone that is firm but not adversarial.
Escalated Cases. Take multi-vendor incidents, technical investigations, and higher-stakes inspections handed up from Specialist I.
Vendor Logistics. Manage access and sequencing for multi-trade turns, larger contractors, and permitted work.
Mentorship. Sharpen the Specialist I's drafts, triage, and write-up quality.
Documentation. Produce files that hold up under outside review.
Requirements:
Past experience in residential property management, leasing ops, or comparable coordination-heavy work.
Can describe specifically how you use AI tools to do your work faster.
Executive-summary written communication. High SaaS fluency.
Comfortable leading cost and tradeoff conversations with owners.
Valid WA driver's license, insurance, reliable vehicle (mileage reimbursed).
High school diploma or equivalent.
Nice to Have: Property management, leasing, or hospitality background. Familiarity with WA landlord-tenant law. Conversational Spanish.
