Carrollton, Georgia **Full-Time | $50,000-$65,000/year + Lease-Up Incentives **

Candidates who have served as an Assistant Property Manager, Leasing Manager, Leasing Consultant, or Property Manager during a multifamily lease-up may be a strong fit if they are ready to take the next step into full ownership of a property launch.

At Vision Realty & Management, we make property management easy for everyone. We are looking for a motivated Property Manager to lead the launch, lease-up, and ongoing management of a brand-new 80-unit multifamily development in Carrollton, Georgia, with retail/commercial space on the ground floor.

This role is designed for someone who already has multifamily and leasing experience and is ready to take the next step into greater ownership. You may have supported a lease-up before without being the person ultimately responsible for the outcome. Here, you will have the opportunity to own it.

Once the property reaches stabilization, additional properties will be added to your portfolio, expanding the scope and responsibility of the role.

Compensation

is $50,000-$65,000/year, based on experience, withadditional leasing incentives tied to achieving defined lease-up KPIs.

ABOUT VISION REALTY & MANAGEMENT

Vision Realty & Management has roots dating back to 1975 and has grown into a full-service property management company serving West Georgia, Metro Atlanta, Charleston, and surrounding markets.

Today, we manage a diverse portfolio of residential, multifamily, and commercial properties while continuing to expand into new developments and markets.

Our company operates around these core values:

Integrity. Growth Takes Courage. Teamwork. Manners Matter. Guide with Clarity.

We expect our team members to take ownership, communicate clearly, solve problems before they become larger problems, and continually improve the systems and properties they manage.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Your primary responsibility will initially be the successful opening and lease-up of a new 80-unit mixed-use development in Carrollton.

You will take ownership of the property through preleasing, opening, initial occupancy, stabilization, and ongoing operations.

You will have support from company leadership, but you will be the person responsible for driving the day-to-day lease-up effort and ensuring the property stays on track.

During the lease-up period, responsibilities will include:

Developing and executing the property's preleasing strategy

Managing the full leasing pipeline from initial inquiry through move-in

Responding quickly and professionally to leasing leads

Conducting property tours and communicating available units, amenities, pricing, and lease terms

Managing applications, approvals, lease preparation, and move-in coordination

Tracking leasing velocity, occupancy, traffic, conversion rates, and other lease-up KPIs

Recommending rental rates, concessions, leasing promotions, and competitive positioning based on market activity

Coordinating property launch events, open houses, and other leasing events

Building relationships with local businesses, employers, organizations, and referral sources

Creating a strong resident experience from the first interaction through move-in and residency

Managing resident communications and issue resolution

Coordinating maintenance, vendors, turns, inspections, and property readiness

Ensuring units, common areas, model spaces, and leasing areas are ready for tours and move-ins

Conducting move-in, move-out, and routine property inspections

Managing rent collection and delinquency follow-up

Managing lease enforcement, notices, dispossessory filings, and court processes when necessary

Working with accounting to ensure property charges, deposits, payments, and reporting are accurate

Managing the operational needs of the ground-floor retail/commercial component

Maintaining accurate records within company property management and leasing systems

Monitoring property performance and providing clear reporting to company leadership and ownership

The first 90 days will be heavily focused on preleasing and opening the property. This period will require flexibility in scheduling, including some evenings, weekends, leasing events, and other activities based on prospect traffic and the needs of the lease-up.

This is an on-site and field-focused position during the initial lease-up.

After the property is successfully leased and stabilized, there will be an opportunity for some work-from-home flexibility, while additional properties are gradually added to your portfolio.

As the portfolio grows, responsibilities will expand beyond the initial development to include broader property operations, owner relationships, financial performance, and portfolio management.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

This role will be measured by results.
