Assistant Property Manager
MJ Property Management — the property management division of White's Site Development, Inc.
1401 Edgewater Drive, Orlando, FL 32804 | Full-time | In office
About Us
MJ Property Management is a growing Florida property management company built on responsive service, clear communication, and well-maintained homes. Our portfolio will include single-family rentals statewide, multifamily communities, and Build-to-Rent (BTR) townhome communities. Our Orlando team is small, so every team member has a direct impact on how we grow.
The Role
We're looking for an Assistant Property Manager to own all leasing functions and day-to-day operations. You'll report directly to the MJ Property Management Executive Team and work closely with our marketing team to fill vacancies and lease up new communities. This role suits a self-starter who is an AppFolio expert, knows Florida rental law, and is equally comfortable touring a prospect, resolving a resident concern, or presenting occupancy numbers to leadership.
Responsibilities
Leasing
- Manage the full leasing cycle, from lead intake and showings to applications, screening, approvals, lease preparation, lease signing, and move-ins
- Respond to inquiries quickly by phone, email, text, and online lead sources, and follow up consistently to turn prospects into residents
- Conduct in-person, self-guided, and virtual showings for single-family homes, multifamily units, and BTR townhomes across Florida
- Screen applicants consistently against company criteria, covering credit, background, income, and rental history
- Prepare Florida-compliant leases, addenda, and move-in documents
- Manage renewals by sending offers on time, recommending rent adjustments, and working to keep good residents

Marketing Collaboration
- Work with the marketing team on leasing campaigns, promotions, and lease-up plans for new BTR and multifamily communities
- Give marketing on-the-ground feedback on prospect traffic, competitor pricing, and what renters ask for
- Create and syndicate listings on Zillow, Apartments.com, Realtor.com, and other sites with accurate pricing, photos, and descriptions
- Contribute to social media content, including new listings, community highlights, and resident events
- Coordinate property photos and virtual tours, and respond to online reviews professionally
Operations
- Maintain accurate resident, owner, and property records, ledgers, and documents
- Oversee rent collection, delinquency follow-up, and legal notices in line with Florida statutes
- Coordinate maintenance requests, work orders, and vendor scheduling, and follow up until each issue is resolved
- Conduct or coordinate move-in and move-out inspections with photo documentation
- Process security deposit dispositions within Florida's required timelines
