Assistant Community Manager Manufactured Housing Community PART TIME

Investment Property Group runs a genuinely large portfolio for a private firm: 150 properties across 13 states, spanning multifamily, manufactured home communities, and RV parks. Their Pacific Northwest presence includes several Grants Pass communities, and this part-time assistant manager role sits right in that mix. You'd be splitting your time between two 55+ manufactured housing communities, Rogue Lea (215 homes) and Westlake Village (93 homes), both in Grants Pass. That's a combined 308 homes, which is a real operational footprint for a part-time position.

The schedule runs Monday through Friday at 27.5 hours per week, with some flexibility built in for occasional evening marketing events or weekend open houses. The pay range is $24 to $28 per hour depending on your background.

Day to day, you'll work closely with the Community Manager on the full range of operations: rent collection, delinquency follow-up, maintenance coordination, vendor communications, and administrative reporting. You'll also carry genuine sales responsibility, touring prospective buyers through available homes, running open houses when needed, and staying on top of local market conditions. In manufactured housing communities, that sales piece often gets underestimated by candidates coming from conventional multifamily. Homes are sold, not just leased, and building relationships with prospective buyers takes a different rhythm than traditional apartment leasing.

The resident demographic matters here. Both communities are age-restricted (55+), which shapes nearly every interaction. Residents tend to be long-term, engaged with their community, and attentive to how concerns are handled. Strong conflict resolution skills and genuine patience go a long way. Someone who enjoys those relationships will find this work rewarding; someone who treats resident interaction as a box to check will struggle.

What makes a strong candidate here

• At least one year of experience in a manufactured housing or multifamily community of 100+ units
• Hands-on experience with rent collection and delinquency management
• Comfort with property management software (Manage America, Rent Cafe, Blue Moon, or similar)
• Sales or leasing experience, with the ability to conduct tours and close
• Strong written and verbal communication, especially for resident-facing situations
• Valid driver's license
• Organizational discipline to manage two separate communities without things slipping

Candidates who do well in roles like this tend to be self-directed. With a part-time schedule spread across two properties, you won't always have someone looking over your shoulder to sequence your day. The ability to triage competing priorities, a maintenance request at one community while a prospective buyer needs a tour at the other, is exactly the kind of thing that separates a good fit from a great one.

IPG offers a 401k with company match, accrued PTO (one hour per 30 hours worked), critical illness and accident coverage, an employee assistance program, and an employee referral program. For a part-time role, that's a meaningful benefits package worth factoring in.
