Property Services Manager

Overview

💼 Property Services Manager — Cincinnati, OH. A growing real estate firm is seeking a Property Services Manager to oversee the physical condition, maintenance, and long-term value of its residential portfolio. This role focuses on project management, make-ready oversight, and property preservation — not leasing or tenant relations.

The ideal candidate is a hands-on professional with strong construction or facilities management experience, excellent organizational skills, and the ability to ensure properties are consistently maintained to top standards.

• Manage all aspects of property maintenance, repairs, and renovations across assigned properties.
• Lead make-ready (turnover) projects from move-out inspection through completion — defining scope, sourcing bids, managing vendors, and ensuring quality.
• Oversee capital improvement projects, such as unit remodels, exterior upgrades, and system replacements.
• Conduct detailed property inspections and ensure repairs meet company standards.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with vendors and contractors to ensure timely, high-quality work.
• Approve invoices, review bids, and manage project budgets.
• Advocate for the long-term health and value of each property by identifying preventative maintenance and improvement opportunities.
• Coordinate closely with ownership and internal teams to report progress, budgets, and timelines.

The Property Services Manager is the hands-on guardian of the company’s assets. By ensuring properties are well-maintained, efficiently turned, and improved strategically, you’ll directly impact asset performance, resident satisfaction, and long-term investment value.

• 3–5+ years of experience in property maintenance, facilities management, or construction project management.
• Strong working knowledge of residential building systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing, etc.).
• Proven ability to manage multiple projects, budgets, and vendor relationships.
• Excellent organizational skills and high attention to detail.
• Financial acumen and the ability to make cost-conscious, quality-driven decisions.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation.
• Preferred: hands-on construction background, trade certifications, or experience with property management software (Property Meld, Rentvine, etc.).

• Competitive compensation starting at $75,000+ / year, depending on experience.
• 401(k) with company match.
• Paid vacation and sick leave.
• Flexible, self-managed schedule with autonomy to oversee all aspects of property performance.
• Opportunity to make a visible impact within a growing organization.
