Three years of property management experience sharpens a specific set of instincts: reading a delinquency report and knowing which accounts need a call versus a notice, catching a lease file that's missing a document before it becomes a compliance issue, and keeping occupancy steady while resident needs pull in a dozen directions. The Assistant Property Manager III role at Weymouth Commons calls on all of those instincts, daily.
John M. Corcoran and Company has been operating residential communities in New England since 1951, and Weymouth Commons reflects that track record. This position sits at the intersection of leasing, resident relations, affordable housing compliance, and administrative operations. You'll support occupancy targets through active leasing activity, approve rental applications, and keep marketing efforts moving. On the resident side, you're the point of contact for questions, concerns, and community coordination.
The compliance piece is significant. Affordable housing properties carry regulatory requirements that standard market-rate communities don't, and errors in resident files or reporting aren't easily walked back. If you've worked with tax credit or subsidized units before, you understand the documentation discipline this demands. Fair Housing knowledge isn't a checkbox here; it shapes how applications get reviewed and how resident interactions get handled.
Day-to-day, you'll also manage the operational rhythm of the property: rent collection, account management, delinquency follow-up, move-in and move-out coordination, inspections, and maintenance communication. Yardi proficiency matters because most of that work runs through it.
Candidates who excel in affordable housing APM roles tend to be detail-oriented without being slow. Compliance paperwork and resident-facing service both require precision, but the property doesn't pause for either. The ability to stay organized under competing priorities, without letting file accuracy slip, is what separates a solid candidate from a great one. A High School Diploma or equivalent is the educational baseline; the real qualifier is those three-plus years of hands-on experience.
JMC's culture is worth noting for the right candidate. The company has operated long enough that many team members have built extended careers there, which signals a work environment where institutional knowledge is valued and internal growth is real. The Monday through Friday, 9 to 5 schedule is consistent, and the role includes a $2,500 sign-on bonus, competitive hourly pay in the $32 to $39.75 range, health and dental coverage, paid time off, and a 401k with company match.
