Property Management Business Development Specialist

Job description

**MUST HAVE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE**

We are seeking a motivated and results-driven Business Development Specialist to join our dynamic team at Rent Portland Homes Darla Andrew’s Office. In this role, you will be responsible for identifying new business opportunities, building strong relationships with clients, and driving sales growth by closing deals. We offer competitive compensation packages, ongoing training and development, and a supportive work environment. Apply now to take your career in business development to the next level!

What does a day look like for a Business Development Specialist?

You may start your day by prospecting for new owners and reaching out to requests for more information. Using your engaging, client facing communication skills, you may then set up a meeting at their property to assess the home and sign them as a new owner under our management. By doing your research prior to the meeting to asses the properties market value, you would then write a description of the home for marketing materials and post it online once back in the office.

Once an owner is onboarded, you will complete onboarding with them in getting them set up with all platforms for management and ensuring all maintenance is completed for the home to be ready to rent. Coordinating all maintenance with our move-in/out client services coordinators and ensuring everything will be ready for the new tenant. You may end your day with following up on calls to new owners and possibly another meeting with a new owner at their home to again assess their home and sign them under our management.

Hours will be Mon-Fri, 8:30 AM – 4:00 PM.

This position is hourly PLUS commissions based on the number of new owners you sign. On average, our business development specialists in this position will sign 20-25 homes per month ($1500 – $1875 extra per month). This position has plenty of room for growth – personally & financially. Our company generates leads through various advertising platforms. As a business developer, it is your responsibility to prospect and secure those leads. If you do not like talking to potential prospects on the phone, then this position is not for you.

This position will also assist with lead generation through writing, emailing, and phone calls.

Duties

Meeting owners (on-site for home review & status)
Onboarding new owners (including inspections, setting up utilities, signing the owner, delegating work orders, overseeing leasing, etc.)
Managing contracts and paperwork (uploading signed PMAs to Appfolio, basic filing, email communications, etc.)
Communication to our internal maintenance department will be needed to coordinate fast repairs to get homes rent ready
Pre-walks on move-ins/outs and overseeing that every property is rent ready
Working closely with your assigned Move In/Out Client Services Coordinator to help delegate and complete tasks such as maintenance, landscaping, junk removal, utility transfers, cleaning, paperwork, etc.

Requirements

**MUST HAVE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE**
Attention to detail
Fast-paced, multitasker
Ability to follow up and be assertive – owners or tenants won’t always provide information the first time they’re asked or things will get pushed aside – this position relies on having someone who will continue to chase down that information
Reliable transportation as this position requires driving to and from properties around the Portland metro area and beyond (mileage is reimbursed for company use at .55 per mile)
Familiarity with property management CRM software such as Appfolio is preferred.
Ability to work independently as well as part of a collaborative team environment.

Additional Income Opportunities: $75 per property signed for commission
