Assistant Property Manager

What You'll Actually Do

This role covers the full resident lifecycle at one of Weinstein Properties' Nashville communities. You'll work leads coming in through phone and internet, schedule and conduct tours, process applications, and put lease files together from start to finish. Once residents move in, you stay involved: renewals, transfers, pet addendums, account questions, and the occasional difficult conversation about a balance owed. When someone moves out, you handle the processing and the security deposit disposition. Rent posting and delinquency follow-up are part of your regular rotation too.

You'll also spend time coordinating with maintenance. That means walking apartments after turns to confirm make-ready punch lists are complete, checking in on work orders, and keeping residents informed when repairs are in progress. Resident events fall to this position as well, from planning through execution.

Weinstein operates with a hands-on philosophy that's been consistent across 70-plus years of family ownership. That shows up in how this role is structured: you're expected to be visible on the property, not parked at a desk. The schedule runs weekdays 9 to 6, with Saturdays on a team rotation (9 to 5), and Sundays off.

What You Bring

• Prior property management experience is genuinely a plus, but Weinstein will consider candidates from hospitality, retail management, or sales who have handled real customer escalations and some team responsibility
• Strong written and verbal communication, including the ability to hold a firm but professional conversation when a resident situation gets tense
• Comfort with shifting priorities mid-day. This is a role where a prospect tour, a maintenance call, and a move-out question can all land on you within the same hour
• Some leadership experience, even informal. You'll help train team members and support the property manager on operations
• Attention to detail when processing paperwork. Lease files, deposit dispositions, and account ledgers all require accuracy

Nashville Market and Growth Context

Nashville's apartment market has seen significant lease-up activity over the past several years, and competition for residents across the Class A and B segments remains real. Weinstein operates multiple communities in the area, and they're offering placement flexibility based on where you live or which part of the market you know. Starting pay comes in at $24 per hour with room to increase based on experience, plus quarterly bonuses. Benefits include a rent discount, health, dental and vision coverage, 401k with company match, paid holidays, and birthday time off.

A strong candidate for this role will already know how to read a resident's frustration and de-escalate without losing ground on policy. That skill, combined with solid leasing instincts, is what typically accelerates the path from assistant to property manager at operators like Weinstein. Many of their current site leaders started in leasing or assistant roles and moved up from there.
