Regional Property Manager
Hometown Communities, Tyler, TX, United States
Hometown Communities is a growing manufactured housing brand operated by MHP Property Management. We own and manage mobile home communities across Texas with a simple but serious mission: affordable housing should also be a great place to call home.
We are in an active growth phase — expanding our portfolio, driving toward full occupancy, and investing in our communities through home rehabilitation, new home placements, and a strong regional leadership team. The Regional Manager we hire is central to that mission. This is not a caretaker role. It is a growth role with real upside for the right person.
The Role You will be the operational leader for three Hometown Communities properties in Texas — based in Kilgore with regular travel to Laredo and Harlingen. You are accountable for sales performance, team leadership, property condition, and financial results across all three sites. This role sits at the intersection of sales, project management, and people leadership. You will manage on-site Community Managers, drive occupancy, oversee home rehabs and unit turns, and work directly with the COO and ownership team on strategy and performance.
Key Responsibilities
Drive home sales and fill vacant units across all three communities
Oversee marketing of available homes via Facebook Marketplace, online listings, and local outreach
Coach Community Managers on lead follow-up, showings, application processing, and closing
Track occupancy weekly; identify gaps and take corrective action immediately
Build referral relationships with local employers, organizations, and community networks
Partner with ownership on new home inventory, infill planning, and pipeline strategy
Project Management & Home Rehabilitatio
Scope, coordinate, and manage home rehab projects from kickoff to completion — on time and on budget
Source and hold contractors accountable for quality, timelines, and accurate billing
Prioritize quick turns on vacated homes to keep units off-market for the shortest time possible
Coordinate new home installs with vendors and ownership as inventory expands
Maintain an active project tracker and provide ownership with regular status updates
Lead, coach, and hold accountable the on-site Community Managers at all three properties
Set clear performance expectations; conduct regular check-ins on showings, applications, and collections
Support hiring and onboarding of new Community Managers when needed
Address performance issues directly and constructively; elevate to COO when appropriate
Property Inspections & Compliance
Conduct monthly inspections at Kilgore and monthly/bi-monthly visits to Laredo and Harlingen
Identify and document blight, safety hazards, rule violations, and deferred maintenance
Enforce community rules consistently and in compliance with Texas law
Coordinate with local officials and appear in court on behalf of management when required
Collections & Financial Oversight
Ensure Community Managers execute monthly collections processes on time and by procedure
Monitor collections rates; follow up on delinquencies and support eviction processes as needed
Manage and track operating expenses against budget; flag variances proactively
Review and approve contractor invoices; maintain accurate records of all project costs
What Success Looks Like Within your first 2 weeks,
you will have visited all three communities, met your Community Managers, and have a clear picture of performance, priorities, and what needs to change first.
By 30 days,
you will have established clear expectations with your team, stabilized collections and showing activity, and have an active rehab pipeline moving with urgency. Ownership will feel confident the right person is in the role.
By 60 days,
all three communities will be trending upward in occupancy, vacant homes will not be sitting idle, and your Community Managers will be operating with real accountability and support.
Requirements
Minimum 3 years of experience in a supervisory role within a property management company
Proven ability to lead and hold a team accountable — you have managed people and gotten results through others
Strong sales mindset — you treat vacant units as a problem to be solved, not accepted
Experience managing contractors or renovation projects with budget and timeline accountability
Valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and ability to travel between all three communities
Proficiency with Google Suite and willingness to learn property management software
Exceptional organization and follow-through — nothing falls through the cracks on your watch
Preferred
Experience in manufactured housing or mobile home park operations
Bilingual in English and Spanish (a strong advantage for Laredo and Harlingen)
Familiarity with Texas landlord-tenant law and community compliance requirements
Background in residential renovation or formal project management
$50,000 – $65,000 base salary depending on experience, plus performance-based bonuses tied to occupancy and operational results. For a strong performer, bonuses are meaningful — not a token amount.
Paid Time Off (PTO) Accrued personal days when life happens
Paid Vacation Annual paid vacation to rest and recharge
Paid Holidays Company-observed holidays throughout the year
Travel Reimbursement All approved mileage and travel between communities covered
Performance Bonuses Tied to occupancy, collections, and operational milestones. Real path to expanded leadership as the portfolio grows.
