Market Property Manager I

A resident calls Friday afternoon, frustrated about a rent charge they don't recognize. Your maintenance supervisor is waiting on your sign-off for a vendor contract. And your leasing team just flagged an application that needs a second look before the weekend. That's a fairly normal hour as a Property Manager at Stone Run East.

The Work Itself

John M. Corcoran and Company has been operating in New England since 1951, and Stone Run East in Weymouth is part of that portfolio. This is a full-cycle management role. You'll own rent collection and know when to escalate to corrective or legal action. You'll track the competitive market closely enough to bring real recommendations to the Senior Property Manager on rental rates, renewal rents, and marketing direction. Application approvals, annual property audits, internal and external reviews, and ongoing dialogue with ownership representatives on performance goals all fall within your scope.

You'll supervise a team that spans administrative, leasing, and maintenance functions. That means hiring, training, and holding people accountable in a way that keeps morale intact. You'll also monitor capital improvements and negotiate contracts, so comfort with budgets and vendor relationships matters as much as people skills here.

One practical note: the schedule runs Tuesday through Saturday, with a 10am to 6pm shift on Wednesdays. If you've only worked a traditional Monday through Friday schedule, it's worth thinking through how that fits your life before applying.

What Strong Candidates Bring

• At least five years of property management experience, with demonstrated supervisory responsibility
• Proficiency in affordable housing compliance, which is a real requirement here, not a nice-to-have
• Working knowledge of Yardi and Microsoft Office
• Comfort reading and managing to a budget, including capex tracking
• A steady, strategic approach to both staff performance and property operations

The candidates who tend to stand out aren't just operationally solid. They read people well. Managing a mixed staff across leasing, admin, and maintenance means you're constantly adjusting your communication style, and the best property managers at this level know how to build loyalty without avoiding hard conversations.
