Welcome to my Background in the Apartment Industry!
My experience in the Real Estate Industry started 9 years ago as I began working as a Leasing Consultant for an Apartment Community in Dallas. Within 3 short months, I was recruited and hired as a Marketing Director, overseeing several communities throughout the DFW Metroplex.
In July 2004, I transitioned into the Uptown Dallas Market and began working as an Assistant Property Manager where my skills and experience increased dramatically as I was exposed to every aspect of Property Management. 2 years later, the knowledge received paid off tremendously when I was promoted to Property Manager over a great A+ Community in Uptown Dallas.
My property and business management background has provided me with excellent people and communication skills necessary to succeed in this Industry. I am able to communicate with Residents and Ownership to maintain a high level of satisfaction on both sides, while correctly following all legal procedures and requirements. I am well versed in many legal issues that may arise between tenants and landlords so I can best advise both parties whenever a situation arises. My management style is proactive, not reactive, but my depth of experience and knowledge enables me to be prepared when a reactive response is the only option.
I have experience managing, training and leading office and maintenance team members, possess the skills necessary for this role, such as great communication, leadership, troubleshooting, multitasking and organizational skills. I am highly proficient in Microsoft Windows, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Publisher and Outlook as well as Industry specific applications such as Yardi Software, Appfolio, Credit Retriever, TAA Bluemoon, MLS and ALN.
Utilizing my years of professional experience as well as the tools and resources I have been exposed to, I possess the ability and determination to further achieve optimum results within the Apartment Industry.
