About the Company:

Our client is a boutique residential property management company based in Northern Virginia managing approximately 150 residential properties in one of the strongest rental markets in the country. The company has been built organically over the past 10 years by a hands-on owner/operator who has grown the business independently, one property at a time, without building a large internal team.

Their portfolio is intentionally high quality, focused on well-qualified tenants and professionally maintained homes. The business maintains an exceptional operational track record, including 0% evictions and 0 late-payment issues across the portfolio.

The owner is a licensed realtor and experienced operator who has created highly efficient systems and workflows across leasing, tenant onboarding, maintenance coordination, and property operations. As the business continues to evolve, they are entering an exciting transition period as the company prepares to move from a franchise model to an independent operation over the next year
