The Saywitz Company is looking for an on-site/resident manager for one of our apartment communities La Quinta, CA. The La Quinta Townhomes apartment complex has 34 units at Eisenhower and Calle Tampico next to Old Town La Quinta. The property has a swimming pool, is security gated, and has assigned parking and on-site laundry facilities for the residents.
We are looking for an on-site resident manager who would live at the property and occupy one of the units. A couple or two people is preferable as it is a large complex. The resident manager’s unit would be remodeled. The on-site resident manager position does not provide a salary and only provides a discounted monthly rent.
APPLICANTS NEED TO READ THE ENTIRE JOB POSTING AND WILL NEED TO HAVE SOME OTHER SOURCE OF INCOME TO SUPPLEMENT THE RENTAL DISCOUNT PROVIDED AS THIS IS NOT A FULL-TIME POSITION AND DOES NOT PROVIDE A PAYCHECK OR SALARY.
The normal monthly rent for the property is $2,195 per month for a 2-bedroom 2 baths townhome unit. The on-site resident manager will be provided a discount of $550 per month and will be required to sign a one-year lease the same as if they were renting a regular apartment. The rent after the discount and manager fee will be $1,645, per month.
Duties for the on-site/resident manager will include the following:
1. Reside at the property and provide general oversite on a day-to-day basis.
2. Assist in the showing of vacant units and renting of empty units as they come due.
3. Coordinate with the company’s maintenance staff for minor maintenance items at the property to ensure that they are maintained at a professional level. Any remodeling of empty units is handled by our maintenance staff and does not require assistance by the resident manager.
4. Ensure the property is kept in a secure and clean condition including but not limited to picking up any trash you see on the property, keeping gates closed, clean the trash area if overflowing, make sure all 9 onsite laundry facilities are kept clean and orderly.
5. Coordinate with pool vendor and landscaper for maintenance and upkeep of the pool and grounds.
6. Assist in the collection of rents and distribution of notices at the property including notices of inspection, 3-day notices to pay or quit, and other tenant information notices.
7. Address any social issues or parking issues at the property which may arise.
In addition to discounted rent, the on-site resident manager will also receive leasing commissions for assisting in the renting of available units. The leasing commissions range from $100-200 per unit. The resident on-site manager will need a working computer, cell phone, and working internet to be able to communicate with the company’s management corporate office.
This is an excellent opportunity for a couple or two people who have additional income and are looking to supplement their income. Previous property management and/or maintenance experience is a plus but not required. We are looking for conscientious, loyal, and dependable people.
