Groundskeeper

Weinstein Properties has been family-owned and operated for over 70 years, and that tenure shows in how they approach staffing. They invest in people who show up, work hard, and take pride in what they do. This Groundskeeper opening at Bexley Grapevine in Grapevine, TX is a straightforward role with a clear value proposition: do good work, stay consistent, and there's genuine room to grow.

The work itself is physical and repetitive by design. Daily rounds include picking up litter and pet waste, maintaining outdoor spaces, operating equipment like backpack blowers and power washers, and supporting the maintenance team with light painting, housekeeping tasks, and trash-outs as needed. You'll be on your feet for most of the shift, lifting up to 50 pounds regularly, and working outdoors through Texas heat, humidity, and the occasional cold snap. Anyone who's spent time on a property knows the groundskeeper sets the first impression. Curb appeal directly affects traffic, and a well-kept community signals to prospective residents that the property is managed with care.

The schedule runs Monday through Friday, 8am to 5pm, which is a genuine advantage in this type of role. Starting pay is $16.50 per hour with quarterly bonuses, and there's a $1,000 stay-on bonus available after 90 days in good standing.

What separates strong candidates here isn't a specific credential. It's a combination of reliability, self-direction, and the willingness to handle tasks that aren't glamorous without cutting corners. The team notices who picks up trash without being asked, who spots a problem before it becomes a complaint, and who communicates proactively with the maintenance and leasing staff.

For someone with a growth mindset, this role builds real skills. You'll develop familiarity with property equipment, learn how a well-run apartment community operates at the ground level, and position yourself for a move into a maintenance technician role over time. Weinstein explicitly trains from within, and groundskeeper is a common entry point for people who eventually earn EPA certifications and take on full maintenance responsibilities.

What You'll Bring

• Reliability and punctuality. This is non-negotiable in a role where daily tasks repeat regardless of who shows up.
• Comfort working independently and completing a route without close supervision
• Attention to detail across the property, including noticing issues before they escalate
• Physical stamina for prolonged outdoor work, bending, stooping, and lifting
• A collaborative attitude when the maintenance or leasing team needs an extra hand
• Willingness to take on varied tasks, including ones that require getting dirty

Weinstein Properties operates over 60 communities across Virginia, North Carolina, Texas, Tennessee, and Georgia. Their hands-on management approach means the people doing the work are seen and recognized. If you're dependable and coachable, this is a place where that gets noticed.
