The Opportunity:

We are a lean and high velocity multifamily investment firm with 440 units and a mandate to scale to 1,500+ units by 2027 on our path to $1 Billion AUM in the next 5 years. We operate with a startup culture backed by a strong principal balance sheet, and we will maintain this "Day 1" intensity until our $1 Billion goal is reached. We are looking for a Founding Director of Finance and Investments who is prepared to make the business their number one priority and own the entire financial lifecycle of our portfolio.

This is a true "multi-hat" leadership role, You will be responsible for building and owning the engine across three phases: Acquisitions, where you will be responsible for sourcing and underwriting new opportunities Finance, where you institutionalize the back-end through precise cash flow forecasting, investor distributions, and tax strategy; and Asset Management, where you hold the portfolio accountable to your forecasts by implementing aggressive execution plans to ensure every property hits its NOI targets. We are looking for a partner who wants to trade corporate safety for long-term equity and help us build this platform from the ground up.

If not in Texas, candidates must be willing to Spend 5 business days per month in Houston Texas overseeing property (Asset mgmt), networking with brokers and touring new acquisitions. During periods of due diligence requirements to be Houston may increase. Please confirm in your application this travel (all paid for by company).

Key Accountabilities:

• Investment Modeling & Underwriting: You will be the primary lead on modeling new opportunities. You will take raw data from brokers or off-market sources, build complex pro-formas from scratch, and present the investment case to the committee.
• Preliminary Investment Committee (PIC) Leadership: You serve as the "Gatekeeper." Before any deal reaches the Founders, you are responsible for the internal audit of the case—stress-testing exit caps, opex loads, and reno timelines. You are the final line of defense for the firm's capital.

• Tax Strategy & Compliance Oversight: You aren't just filing forms; you are the architect. You will manage the tax filing checklist for all 40+ (and growing) entities, ensuring every K-1 is issued on time and that we are maximizing depreciation and cost-segregation strategies across the portfolio.

• System Architecture: You will help design the infrastructure (CRM workflows, checks and balances) to allow the firm to scale without breaking.

Execution Over Delegation :

We are a lean firm where the Director is expected to "turn the wrenches," not just design the machine. If you are looking to sit in a strategy room and wait for reports to hit your desk, this is not the job for you.
