Operations Lead (Real Estate- Manufactured Housing)

Position Type:Full-time

Working Hours:Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM EST

Location:Remote

Salary:$2,500 – $3,000 / month

Compensation:Base Salary ($2,500 – $3,000/month) + Performance Bonus + Promote Participation (Sponsor Equity)

Role Summary

The Operations Lead owns the operational result of a growing manufactured housing portfolio comprising 10 communities, 8 states, and 500+ units, managed through multiple third-party property management companies.

This seat is not an administrative, reporting, or coordination function. It exists to fully untether the Managing Partner’s time so focus can shift entirely to acquisitions and capital deployment. From the closing table forward, every asset’s performance, infill pipeline, compliance posture, contractor relationship, and financial result belongs to this role.

Success in this seat is evaluated by two ultimate standards:
* Business Continuity:The Managing Partner can go completely dark for two weeks without operational disruption.

* Outperformance:The portfolio becomes measurably more valuable at the end of the year than general market appreciation alone would dictate.

Non-Negotiable Operating Standards ("The Floors")

Operational trade-offs are routine, but the following three domains represent fundamental standards that are never compromised or traded against weekly operational pressures:
* Residents:Many residents in our communities have limited options to relocate their homes. This power asymmetry obligates us to run clean, safe, well-maintained properties and enforce terms with unwavering respect. This is an absolute operating standard and a critical risk-management discipline to protect asset reputation in small markets.

* Compliance:Permits, registrations, environmental filings, licensing, and lender covenants carry strict zero-tolerance execution. Missing a deadline risks unsupportable capital work or catastrophic diligence failures during dispositions. Compliance timelines take precedence over day-to-day operating tasks.

* Investor Obligation:Managing third-party capital demands radical transparency. Financial reporting is accurate and punctual, capital is deployed strictly as represented, and negative news is communicated to investors proactively before it is uncovered through external channels.
