Market Assistant Property Manager III

Kimball Court in Woburn has been a working community for a long time, and the people running it day-to-day are the reason it stays that way. John M. Corcoran and Company, operating since 1951, is looking for an Assistant Property Manager to keep things moving at this property. The company has the footprint of a regional leader but has kept a team culture that doesn't feel anonymous. That combination is rarer than it sounds in New England multifamily.

The role covers a real cross-section of property operations. You'll support leasing and marketing to hold occupancy, approve rental applications, and work through the leasing cycle from prospect to move-in. Resident relations comes with the territory too, which means fielding questions and concerns with patience on the days when patience is hard to come by. Rent collection, delinquency follow-up, account management, and resident file accuracy are all part of the administrative load. Move-ins, move-outs, inspections, and coordinating with maintenance round out the day-to-day.

One thing worth noting plainly: this property involves affordable housing compliance. That's not a footnote. It shapes how applications get approved, how files get maintained, and how Fair Housing regulations apply in practice. If your background includes affordable housing work, that experience will carry real weight here. If it doesn't, this probably isn't the right fit for this particular posting.

Yardi proficiency matters. So does comfort with Microsoft Office. Neither of those is a stretch for someone with three or more years in property management, but they're listed as requirements, not preferences.

The schedule is Monday through Friday, 9 to 5, which is straightforward for this type of role. Pay runs from $32 to $39.75 per hour, and there's a $2,500 sign-on bonus. Benefits include medical, dental, vision, and life insurance, a 401(k) with company match, and paid time off plus holidays.

What separates strong candidates here

• Hands-on affordable housing compliance experience, not just awareness of it
• Comfort managing delinquency conversations directly with residents
• Organized file management habits built from real audit pressure
• Leasing experience that goes beyond showing units to actually closing and processing applications correctly
• A communication style that works with residents who are frustrated, not just the ones who are easy

For someone who wants a stable schedule, a company with actual institutional knowledge, and a role where the work is concrete and consequential, this is a grounded opportunity. The people who thrive in roles like this tend to be organized under pressure, honest with residents, and unintimidated by compliance paperwork.
