Regional Vice President, Affordable Housing

Asset Living has been in third-party fee management since 1986, and their affordable housing footprint is a serious operation. This isn't a title bump for someone who's managed a handful of tax credit sites. The Regional Vice President of Affordable Housing is a true senior leadership role, sitting above Regional Managers and carrying direct accountability for both operational performance and client retention across a multi-state portfolio.

The affordable housing side of this business carries compliance weight that conventional multifamily simply doesn't. LIHTC application processes, annual recertification timelines, Section 8 contract requirements, physical inspections with regulatory agencies , these aren't checkbox items here. They're central to the job. If you've spent your career in market-rate and you're thinking this is a lateral move with a different resident profile, it's worth reconsidering. The RVP owns the compliance culture across their region, and that starts with knowing the rules cold and making sure Regional Managers do too.

On any given week, this person is probably reviewing a budget variance with a Regional Manager in one city, joining a client call with an ownership group in another, and prepping for an agency inspection at a third property. The 25 to 50 percent travel estimate is real. This role is not desk-bound, and the clients Asset Living serves in affordable housing tend to have specific reporting expectations tied to regulatory funding sources. Keeping those relationships tight is part of the job description and part of what protects the portfolio.

What separates strong candidates from average ones at this level isn't just compliance knowledge. It's the ability to develop Regional Managers who are stretched thin and still hit their operational targets. The best RVPs we've seen in affordable housing are the ones who can walk a site, spot a file problem before an auditor does, then pivot to a board presentation the same afternoon without missing a beat.

What You'll Bring

• Direct experience as a Regional Manager in affordable housing, specifically LIHTC and/or Section 8 portfolios
• Comfort with regulatory agency relationships, file audits, and recertification compliance at scale
• Demonstrated ability to develop and hold accountable a team of Regional Managers across multiple markets
• Budgeting and financial reporting experience at the regional level
• Strong client-facing presence, including business reviews and ownership group communication
• Relevant certifications (HCCP, COS, TCS, CPM, CAPS) are meaningful here, not just nice-to-have
• Bachelor's degree preferred, but real operational experience carries weight

Miami is the base, but the role is regional in scope. If you've built a career managing the intersection of regulatory compliance and operational performance in affordable housing and you're ready to do that at a larger scale under a nationally recognized third-party platform, this is a role worth looking at closely.
