Business Manager

Property management companies that operate across residential, multifamily, and commercial assets need site-level leaders who can hold together leasing, collections, vendor coordination, and compliance without letting any one piece slip. The Business Manager role at Dream Live Prosper Communities sits at that intersection, working out of City Park in the Heights at 1640 East TC Jester Blvd in Houston.

What This Role Actually Covers

This is a full-cycle operations position. You'll support rent collection and delinquency follow-up, supervise leasing activity, execute lease signings and renewals, and maintain the lease and contract files that keep a property legally sound. You'll also coordinate vendors from bid procurement through invoice processing, conduct regular property inspections, and represent the organization at eviction hearings when the process gets to that point. The role requires close collaboration with project and construction teams as the company develops new residential, multifamily, and commercial assets, so you'll gain exposure to pre-leasing and lease-up work, not just stabilized operations.

The position carries a salary range of $45,000 to $55,000 annually and requires a flexible schedule that includes weekend availability.

What You'll Need and What You'll Build

The role requires at least three years of property management or real estate experience. Apartment management background is preferred, and familiarity with AppFolio, HUD programs, and insurance processes will strengthen your candidacy. Strong organizational skills and clear communication are baseline expectations, not things you'll develop on the job here.

Where this role builds skill is in the breadth of asset types you'll touch. Working across residential, multifamily, and commercial properties within a growing portfolio sharpens your ability to shift between operating contexts, a capability that translates directly to regional or portfolio-level roles later. Exposure to construction and development collaboration also gives you a foundation in understanding how properties are set up for success before stabilization, which most site-level managers never get.

• 3+ years of property management or real estate experience required
• Apartment management experience preferred
• AppFolio experience preferred
• HUD experience preferred
• Insurance experience a plus
• Strong organizational and communication skills

Candidates who separate themselves in this kind of role tend to be the ones who treat delinquency and lease compliance as proactive processes rather than reactive ones. If you're already tracking MTM exposure, following up on renewals before they lapse, and keeping vendor relationships organized before problems surface, you'll fit the pace here. Dream Live Prosper Communities is a subsidiary of DLP Capital, which has appeared on the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies for 13 consecutive years, so the operational expectations reflect a company that runs at a deliberate tempo.
